You could work, or you could play this addicting game for a chance to win a signed Kevin Harvick hat!

Shell has joined forces with ESPN Radio's Mike and Mike in the morning and sponsored an online driving game called The Road Race. The great people at Shell have been nice enough to offer a contest for the fans of NASCAR Fashionistas! This contest will last for 1 week, starting today. Click here to play Road Race (or at the Keving Harvick widget located at the top of our page). Whoever sends a screen grab with the highest score to nascarfashionsitas@gmail.com will win an authentic Kevin Harvick autographed Shell hat!

Players can choose between two cars that match the personalities of ESPN Radio's on-air talent: Mike Greenberg (flashy sports car) or Mike Golic (rugged SUV). Points are accumulated as the racer navigates their way through a race course trying to avoid gunk and potholes that decrease the score and grab any Shell gasoline cans or Nitrogen Enriched fuel drops that add to the total points. It’s pretty addictive, and a great way to break up the day. We haven't worked today thanks to this game but don't worry, we aren't taking your prize.

Kevin Harvick wins Nationwide Bristol race in own car

Official post race interview with Kevin Harvick after the 2009 Bristol Nationwide race
Rusty Jarrett/Getty Images for NASCAR

Kyle Busch had the dominate car in the fourth race in the 2009 Nationwide series season but a tire got away during his last pit stop and the penalty he received opened up the door for Kevin Harvick for his fifth victory at the Bristol Motor Speedway making him the tracks leading all time winner. More importantly to him however it was the first Nationwide Series checkered flag he had ever captured with the team he built with wife DeLana.

Kevin Harvick:
You know DeLana and I built this company from basically dirt and it kind of started as a hobby and we built the shop just kind of having fun with it to finally winning this car the cars have been really good and its been a tremendous amount of pressure I put on myself and probably more pressure than these guys want to see at the shop over the last year and a half or so but it’s been well worth the reward today and I guess it’s kind of fitting that it’s coming. What’s been on my most successful track on the Nationwide Series here at Bristol I’m just glad that it all finally came together.

At one point Kyle Bush blew by Carl Edwards easily which is why cousin Carl certainly felt a little lucky to finish as high as second place.

Carl Edwards:
He was just screaming fast on that restart. I watched him go by and I thought wow that thing looks like fun to drive. It was like wide open, straight line, never wiggled and he just got me. No excuses, he just got me.

Finishing third was the races defending winner, Clint Bowyer.

Clint Bowyer:
It was fun. I mean it’s always fun racing at Bristol. We just fought tide all day long and when you’re a little bit tight and they are beaten you to the throttle it makes for a long day but you know we need to work on our pit stops and you know we’ve got some areas we need to work on but all in all it was a solid day for us.

Subbing for the banged up Greg Biffle, Matt Kenseth came home fourth with rookie of the year candidate Justin Allgaier zipping across the line fifth.

Justin Allgaier:
You know, we just had a lot of fun. This is probably the funnest race track I’ve ever been on and able to go out there and race with these guys. It was a great day for us and I’ve been trying to get their bestest rookie of the race for the last couple here now and I’ve been a couple spots short so to get that and to get the first out top five here at Bristol, it means a lot.

Kyle Busch would wind up sixth after leading 156 laps. The rest of the top 10, Steve Wallace, Scott Speed, Joey Logano and Jason Leffler. Karl Edwards leads the points but the next two drivers behind him, Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch are not running for the championship. Forth place Brendan Gaughan is and after four races he is already 178 points back.

The Nationwide Series will return next week at the Texas Motor Speedway. Look for the audio interview following the O'Reilly 300 April 4. To see the video race review of Bristol race, go to www.nationwide.com/series and click On Your Side Race Review.

Another reason to be a fan of Kevin Harvick...and Martinsville!



Kevin Harvick and Martinsville Speedway have partnered for a special ticket package, “Harvick’s Home Track Advantage,” for members of the 2009 Kevin Harvick Fan Club.

Harvick thinks of Martinville as his home track as he lives only a half-hour from the Speedway of this weeks race.

The “Harvick Home Track Advantage” ticket package offers members of Harvick’s Fan Club a $66 two-day package, with tickets to the Kroger 250 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and the Goody’s Fast Pain Relief 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup races. That’s a savings of $33. Fan club members can also get single-day tickets for the Goody’s Fast Pain Relief 500 for $44, again a savings of $33.

The $33 price point correlates with the number of the Kevin Harvick Inc. truck driven by Ron Hornaday. (Brilliant!)

Kevin Harvick Fan Club members wishing to purchase truck race tickets only: $26 in advance and $31 on race day for a savings of $4. Again, the “4” is not a coincidence; it is the number of the truck driven by KHI driver Ricky Carmichael. (I think I am in love with the people who market at Martinsville!!)

Anyone wishing to join the Kevin Harvick Fan Club can visit www.kevinharvick.com.

Martinsville Speedway is also extending its discount love to your stomach! Of course, The Famous Martinsville Speedway Hot Dog™ and all Pepsi products are always infamously $2. This week Martinsville Speedway will be rolling out a BBQ Combo Value meal-a BBQ sandwich with slaw, chips and a Pepsi product for just $6. The Speedway will also be offering a kids’ meal for $4. The meal includes a Smucker’s Uncrustables Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich, a two-pack of Oreo’s, a fruit cup and a Capris Sun juice pouch.

We cant express enough gratitude to the drivers and tracks who are being mindful to this economy and its fans! We hope other tracks and drivers alike will step up to the plate with similar opportunities in the future!

SNEAK PREVIEW: New Kevin Harvick Commercial

Our friends at MATTER, Edelman Sports & Entertainment on behalf of Shell sent us the following Kevin Harvick Shell Nitrogen Enriched commercial. You can view it here before it airs for the first time during qualifying at Bristol on Friday March 20th.



It’s not quite the showdown you’d see in a good Western, but Kevin’s dueling skills are certainly put to the test as he and one of the Shell Passionate Experts have it out at the pump. Speaking of Kevin and showdowns, I feel the need to post the Sprint All Stars poster. I thought this was pretty genius of NASCAR & Speed since the "headline fight" is none other than Kevin Harvick and Carl Edwards...and how could anyone forget this?

Nascar Cribs

Early this year, CMT kicked off a new season of Cribs with a NASCAR edition. It featured Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch. Of the three, I like Kevin and Delana's house the best. On CMTs website, they have an extra footage video up, which I posted below. I learned from this footage that Kevin loves Goldschlager (ew!) and Denny has 2 roommates.

NASCAR Cribs must have been a hit. I read this morning that Martin Truex Jr will be filming a segment on Tuesday, March 3rd!!!

"I really enjoyed having the CMT people here," Truex said. "I've always been a big fan of Cribs, so to have my place featured on the show is really cool."

My question for you is if you could see any drivers home, which would it be? My personal request would be Jimmie and Chandra Johnson. My reason? To see Chandra's closet.

Kevin Harvick & Shell honor a High School

Mater Dei High School of Evansville, IN will be featured on the deck lid of Kevin Harvick’s No. 29 Shell-Pennzoil car this weekend in Fontana to honor students that won the 2008 Shell Eco-marathon Americas®. This is a program that invites student teams to design and build the most energy-efficient vehicle powered by either conventional or alternative fuels. The students from Mater Dei High School achieved 2,843 mpg and claimed a $10,000 prize for their victory. The 2009 Shell Eco-marathon Americas is set to take place in Fontana, California on April 15 – 18 at Auto Club Speedway.

There is nothing we like more than a great “feel good” story and couldn’t be happier that we came across this one. How exciting is this for the students?! Could you imagine watching the race on Fox and seeing Kevin Harvick drive around the track with your High Schools name on the deck lid? That will surely make a NASCAR fan out of someone! With the state of our country, it is great to report something positive like this.

Here is some more information on this for your reading pleasure. Shell Eco-marathon is a global program that supports education, encourages innovation, reinforces conservation and fosters the development of leading technology for greater energy efficiency. The goal is not to break speed records or be the first to finish; it is to challenge students around the world to design, build and test vehicles that travel further using less energy.

Kevin Vs Carl

The latest drama in the saga called Nascar is Carl Edwards vs Kevin Harvick. There is nothing like a little brawl to draw attention. I don't need to go into the story being everyone that knows Nascar knows what happened on Thursday but here are the highly anticipated Kevin Harvick Carl Edwards fight pictures. My money is on Carl btw.
