HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) — Kevin and Delana Harvick were an extremely happy couple Friday night.
Kevin Harvick made a late pass to cap a dominating show to win the season-ending Trucks Series race at Homestead-Miami Speedway, and wife Delana clinched the owners' championship when Ron Hornaday Jr. — who had already wrapped up his fourth Trucks title — finished eighth.
"That's the way to put an end to a year, right there!" Harvick shrieked into the radio as he crossed the line.
Kevin Harvick went into the pit after Ryan Sieg went into the wall and brought out a caution flag with seven laps left. Harvick took four tires, exited pit road first and lined up just behind Timothy Peters for a green-white-checkered finish.
Harvick passed Peters in the very first turn after the restart and cruised to the win. And then Harvick and Hornaday went side-by-side after the checkered fell, sending thick plumes of white burnout smoke into the air.
Matt Crafton finished second, polesitter Colin Braun took third and Peters finished fourth.
