Kevin Harvick and NHRA Top Fuel Racing
The 2007 Daytona 500 winner and wife DeLana flew up from Phoenix this morning to take in the sights, sounds and smells of NHRA Powerade Drag Racing. They experienced 16,000 Top Fuel horsepower lighting off at one time by standing near the Christmas tree (the lights on the starting line) when Bob Vandergriff (with whom he is exploring the options of another NHRA team) met Antron Brown in the first round of eliminations. Brown advanced.
Harvick says the talks are in the early stages; he says the venture would help give his other sponsors some added value. He also says that NHRA Drag Racing is popular among other drivers in the Sprint Cup garage area.
It cannot hurt that H. A. "Humpy" Wheeler is building a drag strip at Lowe's Motor Speedway.
