Harvick Wins.......Again!!!

This posting is almost a repeat of the one
before it....with the same result.
At the NASCAR Sprint Cup race in Martinsville,
Virginia today, Kevin Harvick passed Dale
Earnhardt, Jr with three laps to go to claim
the win and the Grandfather clock trophy. Harvick
becomes the first two-time winner at the Cup 
level in 2011. He started the race in the 24th spot 

and remained about mid-pack until the 200 lap mark
of the 500 lap event. Earnhardt, Jr has not won a
Cup race since June of 2008 and was the sentimental
choice, but it was not to be. He did edge out Kyle 
Busch for second place, with Juan Pablo Montoya
fourth and Jeff Gordon rounded out the top five.
Harvick, who finished 42nd in the Daytona 500 has slowly worked his way back into the points chase and now is fifth after todays victory. The NASCAR drivers will be in Dallas-Fort Worth next week when they come to Texas Motor Speeday, north of the metroplex. It
is one of the fastest venues on the NASCAR circuit.
