No. 4 Longhorn Chevrolet Silverado

“It is pretty awesome to have a vehicle like this Longhorn Chevy,” said Harvick following the win Friday night. “I mean, from the time we unloaded it, it was just flat awesome. I just want to thank everybody from Longhorn and KHI, Chevrolet, VFW, Rheem and all of the fans for coming out and supporting everything that we do. This Truck Series is a lot of fun to race in. I got to have a little bit of fun with Kyle (Busch) there at the end head to head. That is always fun. So a great truck and a great night for KHI.”

With the race in full speed Friday night under the lights at PIR, Harvick quickly looked for the lead taking over the top spot on lap two of the scheduled 150-lap event. After only five laps, Harvick began voicing concern that something was being laid down on the track by another competitor’s truck and suspected it was oil. Unsure, Harvick continued to run fast laps while also battling a loose-handling truck. Three laps after voicing concern, Harvick lost control of the truck in turn four and spun without collecting any damage to the No. 4 Chevy. Following the spin, Harvick brought his truck to pit road to top off with fuel and to check the truck for damage. Returning to the track, Harvick restarted the race on lap 12 from the 31st position.

Shuffled back in the field, Harvick patiently worked his way toward to the front, taking over the 20th position on lap 22. Continuing to fight a loose-handling truck, Harvick was able to bring the No. 4 Silverado back to pit road from the 18th position on lap 33 under caution for four fresh tires with an air-pressure adjustment and the next lap for fuel and a track-bar adjustment. With a fast, clean stop, the team gained six positions to restart the race on lap 38 from the 12th spot. Crew chief Ernie Cope and Harvick both complemented the team on a great pit stop, telling them they were back in the hunt for the win.

Quickly taking over the lead on lap 96, Harvick was able to pull away from the field, hold off a hard-charging Busch and survive several late-race cautions to score his second Truck Series win of the 2009 season. Busch finished the race second followed by Almirola, Hornaday and Johnny Sauter.

Hornaday, Harvick’s KHI teammate, becomes the oldest champion in NASCAR history at age 51, the first driver in Truck Series history to win four titles and only the second driver to clinch the Truck Series championship before the season finale (Greg Biffle was the first in 2000).

Harvick’s victory marked the first time the award-winning Chevy R07 has visited Victory Lane in NCWTS competition.

The victory for Harvick was a continuation of the tradition of Richard Childress Racing (RCR) and Earnhardt Childress Racing (ECR) engines scoring the first-ever win for both the Chevy SB2 and R07 engines in NASCAR competition.

“Congratulations to ECR engines for completing the sweep of first wins for both the SB2 and R07 engines in NASCAR Series competition,” said Pat Suhy, GM Racing NASCAR Group Manager. “The streak began with Dale Earnhardt, Sr.’s victory in 1998 at the Daytona 500 with the SB2 and continued with Kevin Harvick’s win in the 2007 Sprint Cup All-Star Race with the R07. RCR driver Clint Bowyer brought home the first Nationwide Series win for the R07 at the 2008 Bristol Spring race. Harvick capped off the string with his win last night at Phoenix in the NCWTS.

“Richard (Childress) and Teresa (Earnhardt) have put together a great organization that knows how to maximize the performance and durability of the racing engines used by their teams and customers. Our GM Racing Powertrain group designs parts that provide a strong foundation for them to build from. We are proud to be associated with such a successful organization.”

Drivers from both RCR and Kevin Harvick, Inc. (KHI) have contributed to the impressive string of “firsts” for Chevy racing engines.

“ECR Engines would like to congratulate Kevin Harvick and KHI for winning last night’s NCWTS race at PIR,” said Danny Lawrence, ECR Assistant Chief Engine Builder/Trackside Engine Department Manager. “We appreciate the opportunity to build the Chevrolet R07 engine that powered his No. 4 Longhorn Chevrolet Silverado to victory.

“Kevin has a strong record at PIR, so we knew we had a great opportunity and all of the hard work ECR and KHI did together paid off with a win. The staff of ECR’s R&D and production departments use the most advanced technology in the industry, and we’re fortunate to have our Chevrolet engines in some very competitive cars and trucks.

“All of us at ECR Engines are proud of the ‘firsts’ we’ve been able to achieve for Chevrolet. Beginning with Richard Childress Racing’s engine department, we were the first to win with a Chevy SB2 engine when Dale Earnhardt won the 1998 Daytona 500 in the No. 3 GM Goodwrench Service Chevrolet Monte Carlo. ECR Engines won the first race with a Chevy R07 engine in a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series car when Harvick and RCR’s No. 29 Shell-Pennzoil Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS won the 2007 Sprint All Star race. Clint Bowyer earned the first win with the R07 engine in the NASCAR Nationwide Series when he took the No. 2 BB&T Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS to the winner’s circle last March at Bristol Motor Speedway. And, now we capped things off with the first win in the Truck Series with a Chevy R07 engine.”

Hornaday secured the unprecedented feat with a fourth place finish in tonight’s race. Heading in to the season’s final race next week at Homestead-Miami Speedway, the battle for the 2009 NCWTS owners’ title is still undecided. DeLana Harvick holds a 60-point lead over second place.

“ I couldn’t think of a better track and I love Phoenix,” said the newly-crowned champion. “This is a compliment to the team. It takes a lot of people to do this, all the guys back at the shop. Just had another great truck Mark Smith with the motor program and what he has done and with Chevrolet and everything they do including the wind tunnel and all their support and Pratt and Miller. It just takes a bunch of people and I am just fortunate enough that my wife and I are old enough that we are just at the race track and having fun.”

Johnny Sauter, No. 13 Fun Sand/Rodney Atkins/Curb Records Silverado finished fifth in the race scheduled for 150-laps but a caution on lap 149 forced the race in to overtime for a green-white-checkered finish.

Matt Crafton, No. 88 Australian Gold/Menards Silverado, finished eighth to give Team Chevy four of the top-10 finishers in tonight’s race. Crafton is second in the standings, 150 points ahead of third place as the season winds down to one race to go.

Kyle Busch (Toyota) and Aric Almirola (Toyota) finished second and third respectively.

The final event of the 2009 season will November 20 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

KEVIN HARVICK, NO. 4 LONGHORN SILVERADO, RACE WINNER:

HOW MUCH FUN IS IT TO HAVE A GREAT TRUCK?

“It is pretty awesome to have a vehicle like this. I mean, from the time we unloaded it, it was just flat awesome.

“To have (Ron) Hornaday clinch the drivers’ championship and me win the race is pretty cool. I mean we got to do twin burnouts out there. I couldn’t hardly do a burnout; he definitely had me topped on that one. I couldn’t get my tires spinning. That was not good. But it was pretty cool anyway.”

“Well Ron has been the catalyst of everything that has turned this team in to championship caliber. You know you don’t have worry about what is happening from the driver’s seat, you know that everything is coming out of the driver’s seat that is absolutely possible. From there, we have built a team around him that was capable of giving him the trucks that he needed. Like I said, he gets everything out of them that he can. It is fun to watch and Ron is a great friend of mine. Meant a lot to me coming up through my career. To win a second championship with him is pretty cool.”

“We aren’t done yet. We have to get the owner’s title too. Kyle (Busch) is pretty close to us. KHI, I can’t say enough for them. These trucks are awesome. I don’t know what happened during the pit stop, but for them to rally back…and Rick Ren (crew chief) with that short gas just to keep us out in front of that No. 88. It is so much fun to drive for Kevin and DeLana (Harvick), I can’t believe. VFW, Copart, Longhorn, I can just sit here and name everybody, it has been great. Turtle Wax, Georgia Boots, Miller Welders, thank you for all the help. Wiley X, Indian Motorcycles. It is unbelievable. This is a lot of fun.

“I am glad Kevin won this race, that is cool. This is a compliment to the team. It takes a lot of people to do this, all the guys back at the shop. Just had another great truck.

“Our favorite truck got wrecked, it really ran good here. These guys brought this truck back, I knew I didn’t have a winning truck, but I had to play it smart in points.”

A GREAT START TO THE SEASON, CONSISTENT, FIVE WINS IN A ROW MID-SEASON, HOW DID YOU STAY FOCUSED DURING THE LAST HALF OF THE SEASON?

“We had the post lead and then we ended up wrecking at Dover. These guys never say quit. Kevin kept building me new truck each week. Kevin had a brand new truck here which will be for 2010. He is going to run one next week. I can’t say enough for everyone.

“Jack Sprague, buddy, I wish you were out here racing me. I got four so now you have to come back and get another one.

“This is unbelievable. Four. We still have hard work to do. Kyle is pretty tough. We have to stick with him at Homestead to get that owner’s”

Matt Crafton

“No I felt like we had a top-five truck. We didn’t have a winning truck tonight for sure, but I felt we had a top five truck. We just lost a lot of spots there on that last deal. The crew guys said they dropped a lug nut and we got behind on that and some of the guys beat us out on the fuel stop and I don’t think they took but a splash and there were some of the Toyotas saving fuel there in the end. They must have put just enough in it to make it.

“For some reason we were really good at the beginning……..I shouldn’t say really good but pretty good. And then on the last two runs we got really off for some reason. I don’t know if it was air pressure or what we did but it was definitely off at the end. I don’t know. Not a horrible day but not a good day.”

HOW ABOUT THE CHAMPIONSHIP? YOU LOST TO ONE OF THE BEST.

“I’m over it. I want to win races. I mean congratulations to Ron and the whole deal. They were good the whole year and they were winning races and we got out fuel-mileaged and beat on that. I look forward to the new……I should say the old pit rules the way it should be done and I definitely think we are going to be a lot better next year.”

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE CHAMPIONSHIP

“Thank you. I couldn’t think of a better track and I love Phoenix. It looked pretty grim for a while. But its not over by far because we are racing Kyle Busch for the owner points and that is the true goal. That shows how good our team is and Kyle has been really racing strong and has six or seven wins this year. So we are going to do what we can to hold them off down there but we are going to go down there and have a little fun and race a little different.”

WAS YOUR GOAL TONIGHT TO RACE SMART AND TO NOT MAKE ANY MISTAKES?

“You didn’t watch the race because we tried to race smart but we left the gas can out the back and that put us in the back and I was sweating it out because we got behind the 11 and I started pushing real bad and I thought my right front tire started going. I put about five turns of brake in and I started sliding and I learned something.

“On the third to the last restart it wouldn’t turn and started shoving the tires and I had to put more rear brake in it just then. Luckily that kind of happened in that run because it kept us in the top-five and Johnny Sauter was really coming strong so…….we came home in the top-five and that’s what we needed to do to keep Matt behind us. He’s a heck of a racer and I am glad they turned the program around and gave us a run for our money all year long and there are just so many people to think and you guys have been following it all year and see what it takes to go racing with Copart, Longhorn, VFW, Georgia Boots, and Turtle Wax. It really takes a lot and having all those sponsors to work together and do what they have done is just great.

“Mark Smith with the motor program and what he has done and with Chevrolet and everything they do including the wind tunnel and all their support and Pratt and Miller. It just takes a bunch of people and I am just fortunate enough that my wife and I are old enough that we are just at the race track and having fun.”

HOW SIGNIFICANT AND HOW BIG OF A DEAL IS THIS CHAMPIONSHIP TO YOU TO SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM SPRAGUE AND BE THE FIRST 4 TIME CHAMPION?

“You said it right there. I got one up on Sprague and that’s all that counts. I said it out there, that Sprague needs to come back and try and get a fourth one and just keep me racing. Jack and I have been fighting for wins and championships back and forth and Jack had to quit and give me a little head start so we went back and forth and he had 23 then I had 24 then he had 25 so its just been a fun battle with Jack and I wish he was still out there because he is a heck of a little racer. I don’t know. Maybe I will have to build another trophy case. I only have five so maybe I will have to move one over and put two together so.

“Its been a long week because Lindy’s mom went through surgery and she came out of that real well and they had given her a thirty five percent chance of surviving it and she is doing real well and at home today. So it will be good to get home and see her tomorrow.”

YOU HAVE TALKED BEFORE ABOUT GUYS COMING AND SLEEPING ON YOUR COUCH. BUT HOW COOL IS IT TO THINK THAT YOU HAD JIMMIE JOHNSON, WHO MIGHT BE A FOUR TIME CHAMPION, YOU ARE NOW A FOUR TIME CHAMPION AND YOU GOT HARVICK IN THE MIX. YOU LOOK BACK ON THAT AND COULD YOU IMAGINE THAT GUYS WHO WERE SLEEPING ON YOUR COUCH WOULD HAVE AS MANY CHAMPIONSHIPS AND YOU WOULD HAVE AS MANY CHAMPIONSHIPS AND ALL THAT STUFF BACK THEN?

“My wife made me sleep on the couch just last week. (laughs). Its kind of cool and I think this is kind of the payback with what Kevin and Delana have done for me and like I said its not over. We have to win that owners point championship. They definitely deserve it because they have given me great trucks all year. And the truck that Kevin built tonight was a 2010 that we are going to run next year and we have had a lot of help from Chevrolet and because Kevin never quits. I went into the shop a couple of weeks ago and there were like fourteen trucks and then I came back and there were like five trucks. I said, ‘where did all the trucks go?’. He said, ‘Kevin sold them all and you are getting all brand new trucks again next year. And when we won five races in a row they were all brand new trucks and so my hats off to the boss man right there. He has what it takes to win them and oh, here is the boss lady…..I forgot. But its been fun and we are not done. As long as Kevin and Delana has me, we are going to win some more of them.”

RON – IT IS UNUSUAL TO WRAP UP A TITLE WITH ONE RACE TO GO, THAT HAS TO BE A NEW EXPERIENCE FOR YOU:

“It took me 30 years to do it. If you look at the year, we had a pretty good points lead and then we ended up blowing a tire at Dover and Matt caught us. Then we had another bad race and ran out of fuel. Like I said, we’re not done racing. We have to go down and race Kyle Busch. Those owner’s points mean more to me than a trophy because it says the whole team worked hard and we beat everybody. So we are going to go out and do what we have got to do. Kyle is on a roll. He almost won three of them last weekend. We are going to go out there and get the owner’s championship…so we are going to keep racing.”

RON – TALK ABOUT HOW SPECIAL THIS TRACK IS TO YOU FROM YOUR SOUTHWEST TOUR AND WINSTON WEST DAYS:

“Kevin was telling Carmichael (Ricky) that I was racing here when it was dirt, before they even started it. Oh, fresh asphalt. It is cool. I am not totally talking about the championship. It is cool for me to win it, but it isn’t over yet, it is not even close. Kevin and DeLana deserve a lot more because of the equipment, the people they put in places. It takes a lot. Without our sponsors that work together and the program they put together to make it happen, this is what it is all about.”

RON – IS THERE AN ADDED SENSE OF BEING SPECIAL IN THE VFW TRUCK WITH BEING SO CLOSE TO VETERAN’S DAY AND COMING ON THE HEELS OF THE TRAGEDY AT FT. HOOD? “

I appreciate that. The last few have been VFW races it is hard to go out there and see all those soldiers and see the tragedy at Ft. Hood. A lot of support from VFW. I can’t say enough about them. I had the opportunity to go to Iraq and see what the men and women do first hand. TV, newspaper, they really don’t do it justice. I brought pictures home and tried to explain it to my wife. About the smells and everything else. My hat is off to all the men and women. It is pretty cool and it is special and thanks for bringing it up.”

RON – TALK ABOUT HOW UNIQUE IS THE RELATIONSHIP IS BETWEEN YOU AND KEVIN:

“I’m mad that I didn’t get to go up there and race him for the win. We had to play it smart and do what we had to do to overcome a pit stop failure. Rick Ren made a great call to only put one can of fuel in to beat the No. 88 out of the pits. It worked out great. It is always fun to race Kevin because you know he is going to run 120 mile an hour faster than you. I remember the first time I ran his Nationwide car, he was in the second car and he turned me sideways to pass me. I was like “Doesn’t he know he owns this car? I couldn’t go run into the back of him just cause he did that. That was the first experience I had with Kevin, he doesn’t really car whose car it is he is going to move you out of the way to race it.”

KEVIN – SAME QUESTION:

“For me, I came up through my career. I was thinking back to races at Mesa Marin, the nights the he and Rick Carelli and Mike Chase and all the guys that used to race in, it was open comp back then, then Southwest Tour. I was sitting in the grandstands. And now I have Ron and Rick and Ernie Cope and a couple of kids from the West Coast, and Andy Houston that came up through the Truck Series, so it is just a lot of us that raced together. It is about the race vehicle. These guys go out and race it and enjoy it”

WINNING COMBINATION: Heading to Phoenix International Raceway (PIR), Kevin Harvick looks to defend his truck series win from one year ago, this time behind the wheel of the No. 4 Longhorn Chevy Silverado.

In nine previous starts at the track, Harvick has recorded three wins, all for Kevin Harvick Inc. (KHI), four top-five and four top-10 finishes.

In his four previous starts for KHI in the Truck Series, Harvick has started no worse than 10th, recorded three wins and his worst finish is fifth. In those four races, he has a starting average of 4.75, an average finish of 2.0, has led 234 laps and completed 100 percent of attempted laps (652 of 652).

100 STRONG: This weekend when Kevin Harvick climbs behind the wheel of the No. 4 Longhorn Chevy Silverado, he will make his 100th career start in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. In 99 previous starts, Harvick has accumulated four wins (three at PIR and all for KHI), 29 top-five and 42 top-10 finishes. In addition, he has completed 16, 236 laps and led 934. Harvick’s first career start in the series came at Mesa Marin (Calif.) on October 15, 1995, driving for his father, Mike Harvick.

ELITE GROUP: Harvick became the first driver at PIR to win a race in all three of NASCAR’s elite series by scoring his first Truck Series win in 2002, followed by a sweep in 2006 of the Nationwide and Cup Series events. Kyle Busch has also completed this task at PIR.

BEFORE THE RACE: QUOTES WITH DRIVER KEVIN HARVICK:

Returning to Phoenix International Raceway as the defending Truck Series race winner, what are you expectations?

“I always seem to do well at Phoenix, so I’m excited to see what we can do with the Longhorn Chevy this weekend. I run well in the Truck Series and every time I climb in the truck, I expect to be in contention at the end to win. Our truck program has really peaked and that makes it a lot of fun to race and see what we can do on the track. Hopefully at the end of the night, I can defend my win from last year and get the No. 4 team their first win of the season.”

Why do you have so much success at Phoenix International Raceway?

“Phoenix is one of those places that I grew up racing on. I raced a lot in the Southwest Tour, Winston West and Truck Series races at Phoenix. I have learned the characteristics of the race track and the little things that you can do when your car is not handling perfect. I like the flat race tracks. Racing on Phoenix my entire career has also translated into flat track success on the entire circuit.”

Does Phoenix fall into the same category as a short track like Martinsville or Richmond?

“I don’t really see Phoenix as a short track. Even though places like Phoenix and New Hampshire are only a mile, they both have a lot of room to race. Phoenix is always a fun race track. There are always at least two lanes, and sometimes even more, to pass.”

CHASSIS HISTORY:

This weekend the No. 4 Longhorn team will unload chassis No. 039 at Phoenix International Raceway for KHI co-owner Kevin Harvick. This is a brand-new chassis to the KHI stables and this weekend will mark its race debut.

PREVIOUS RACE RECAP:

Ricky Carmichael made his last scheduled start of the season for KHI at Texas Motor Speedway behind the wheel of the No. 4 Monster Energy Chevy Silverado. Starting the race from the ninth position, Carmichael lost the handling of the truck at the beginning of the race and fell back to the 16th spot. Working on the truck throughout the race and gaining valuable experience on the track, Carmichael was able to move through the field and finish the race in the 12th spot.
