While the race for the NASCAR Sprint Cup is officially set to begin this coming weekend, the excitement has already begun with Kevin Harvick’s outta-nowhere win at the Budweiser Shootout this past Saturday at Daytona International Speedway. Harvick was running at the back of the field early in the race and overcame several obstacles, including the loss of a left front fender, to pull ahead of Jamie McMurray on the last lap of the race. It was Harvick, McMurray, Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon finishing in positions one through four.
