Harvick's an idiot
Here's the deal, since everyone is jumping on Harvicks back about that bone head move he made in the 150's I'm gonna try and justify it. Maybe he thought by wrecking the 48 he would have a better chance on Sunday to win the 500. So that brings me to my next point. If your that desperate to win a race, and he is, then maybe your not as good as you thought. He s the type driver that I would like to buy for what he s worth, and sell for what he thinks he worth. The Nascar Weekly Dodge Series is looking for a big name to jump on board, i think he would be the perfect fit. Always wrecking and always lookin to fight. Raise hell!!!!

harvick drives just like his predicessor #3
Posted by: jackson kinney | Feb 19, 2005 12:25:42 PM
ok so what harvick drove a little rough. For one thing I love this journal thing, but I hate what you just wrote. Harvick had a run and he couldn't do anything about it. Even the announcers said that. Yeah he drives like Dale Sr., but the only difference is that if it was Dale they would be like "wow what a great move to bad it didn't pay off for Dale. I have no hard feelings towards him because he's Dale..."
Listen I'm not trying to be mean I just think that people are too hard on Kevin yea he wants to win so does every driver and he DOES NOT want to win so bad that he would wreck himself out. The Dodge Weekly Series comment was really uncalled for. I still think you're cool I just hate your opinion so I wanted to give mine. Thanks for letting me vent.

What a moronic post. Harvick is "always wrecking"? He holds the record for most consecutive races without a DNF. That menas he rarely wrecks you dimwit. Do you have any other comments that will show your utter cluelesness about racing? Well Done.

Stewart bumps Menard on a turn during the Busch race, Menard dosn't lose it...nobody says a word. Hey folks, that's exactly the same situation as Harvick - Johnson.
Could Menard just be a better driver than J.J.

you are a waste, listen to jimmie johnson brag about how he dragged his brakes while leading the bud shootout to keep the cars behind him, after he won the race. I bet he doesnt drag his brakes when the man, kevin harvick, is behind him anymore.

I understand that Mr. Harvick got into another car in Sat practice. Talk about a guy with a PR problem. Kevin needs to win races. I struggle to think of a driver who has done less with more. Or perhaps is RCR a third tier chevy team???

Here's the deal, since anybody with an internet connection and a few firing neurons can seemingly get a major media conglomerate to carry a blog:
That's racin' (Hey, sounds familiar...).
Maybe if you ignore it, Harvick will fade away. But contribute to the hype, and he'll continue to make waves in NASCAR.

As far as the DNF's go, the person starting a wreck seldom gets the end result, the person they hit gets the DNF. I think it's his I can do no wrong additude during the "after incident" interviews that sets him apart. He looks more and more like a rookie every race.Twice now, one of the cleanest racers car has been damaged this week as a result of Kevins actions. Botttom line, he's not near a talented as eveyone thought he was, when his car is perfect, he's perfect, when it is not, he's not even close, and that is the difference between just a driver or a great driver. He's not that latter for sure.

Its sounds like you don't know anything about racing, especially plate racing. For a start, Jimmie Johnson is well-known for liking a loose car, and Jeff Burton in his interview said he noticed how loose the 48 was on Thursday. Have you ever thought that maybe the 48 was too loose for a plate race? It might be okay in practice where there isn't as much stuff going on, but as soon as it gets in a race its obviously very hard to control. Is that a good driver? Setting his car up just for the maximum speed, who cares if it can actually handle in a race?Its obvious Kevin was faster at that stage and he'd already given Jimmie plenty of warning that he was faster. Isn't it usual for faster cars to give a few warnings to let the other guy know he's faster and wants to be past. Johnson obviously wanted to just stay out front and block for the remaining 20-odd laps, like he admitted to doing at the end of the Shootout.
And, another point, if anyone runs into Kevin now they are going to blame it on him. Martin accidentally hits him but doesn't want to admit it so just says "Harvick hit me". They should stop crying and you should too. Its just racing. It all reminds me of how everyone reacted with Stewart at the start of last season. Do you want the drivers to race or just run round for 200 laps without even trying? Again going back to what Burton said, whenever drivers want to go faster than the others and win there will be wrecks, its part of it. Get over it and stop trying to blame someone for every little racing incident.
P.S. I couldn't contain myself yesterday when Stewart and Harvick finished 1-2 in the Busch race. Thats for all the Harvick haters - he's building a golden future in this sport and he'll be here for a long time so get used to it.

This is the first post I've read from you and I'm not impressed. What a stupid suggestion that the 29 would deliberately wreck the 48 in the first place and then to say that it may be to give him a better chance of winning. Did you watch the tape? Did you notice the wiggle before Harvick ever touched him? How do you think the 29 closed so quickly? Did Harvick hit his turbo button or did maybe, just maybe the 48 let off the gas to save his loose racecar? Hmmmmm.....that almost sounds intelligent doesn't it?

Well said! I don't know why everyone is jumping on the Harvick band wagon. He screwed up by punting Jimmy and he even admitted it on Track Side. Once again Harvick is just trying to be like Earnhardt, but doesn't have the talent of Lake Speed. All of you Harvick fans are just pissed because he will NEVER be an Earnhardt!

hey,
who cares if harvick will ever be dale.
dale was his own man just like kevin.
do you think JJ would have ever opened his mouth like that if Jr. would have did the same thing.
double standard racing as always.
my opion of JJ has changed what a cry baby.
Posted by: Frank | Feb 20, 2005 9:15:05 AM
Harvick wouldn't last in the Dodge Weekly Racing Series with the way he drives. The drivers in that series would have him crying for his mommy.
He tries to mimic Dale Earnhardt's driving style. He has the dirty driving part down but hasn't got the winning and consistant finished down and probably never will.
Posted by: Chris | Feb 20, 2005 9:30:34 AM
Here's my thoughts; Kevin didn't mean to wreck Johnson, however he had a choice to lift and not nail him and chose to stay in it and see what happened. Johnson's car was loose and he lost some momentum which created the situation. The difference with Kevin is not so much what he does on the track is how people percieve his comments and actions after the race or wreck. It's all PR anyway, the drivers do what they have to do on the track, especially given the ridiculous circumstances they are faced with at the plate races. As far as I'm concerned, the plate races are like circus sideshows, the main events are when we get to the rest of the tracks.

hey again
after watching the end of daytona 500 it seems to me as if mr. johnson has a habit of causing wrecks or near wrecks.
he did it to harvick then tried it on tony.
then wants to balme everyone else.
seems to me as if mr. johnson will get his
a-- handed to him one of these days
so get off harvicks BACK
Posted by: Frank | Feb 20, 2005 6:27:47 PM
Johnson has a "habit" of causing wrecks? What about Stewart's "habit" of causing wrecks? Jesus, he ran over so many people last year he may as well have been a lawn mower.
Posted by: Sush | Feb 23, 2005 12:03:32 AM
Harvick was caught up in a wreck Sunday. Were the ones that caused it idiots? Harvick's wreck in the 150s was because of the restrictor plates.He had a run and got sucked up into Johnson. The same Johnson that said in the "shootout" he would slow down so the cars behind him couldn't get a run.
Posted by: Mike | Feb 24, 2005 3:01:59 PM
This one is for the idiot that writes these articles...First off buddy, Harvick's no idiot, He is simply a great racecar driver with bad luck. If you blaim Harvick for causing the wreck in the 150, then you're the idiot. Johnson knew Harvick had the only car that could beat him in that race, and what does he do, try to bog down the pack. He was lucky his car didn't get tore up. Harvick had no where to go so instead of getting run over from behind, he rubbed johnson and because johnson was so loose couldn't hang onto it and they all wrecked. Yea Kevin is a firey guy, thats why I like him. He doesn't let anyone push him around and if he has something to say, he's gonna say it. Don't hate on him just because he has a personality.
P.S. how bout that 1-2 finish in the busch race....hell yeah harvick baby, congrats tony
