Kevin Harvick Scores Memorial Day Weekend Win at Charlotte Motor Speedway

Kevin Harvick and the No. 29 Budweiser Folds of Honor Chevrolet SS team celebrated Memorial Day weekend in Victory Circle at Charlotte Motor Speedway after scoring the win in Sunday night's Coca-Cola 600. Harvick had started Sunday's 600-mile event from the 15th position. "It feels great," said Harvick after climbing from the No. 29 Budweiser Folds of Honor Chevrolet in Victory Circle. "I just have to thank everybody on this No. 29 Budweiser Folds of Honor Chevy team for just hanging in there. This is a long night. We have been here a lot of times and know that you just have to grind through mile after mile, keep your car running, don't get tore up, don't get a lap down and you're going to be somewhere around at the end.

Everybody did that on our team tonight and there we were at the end." Sunday's win moved Harvick up to seventh in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver point standings. He's now a mere eight points out of the top five and 83 points back from the top spot.
