Receiving a go-kart as a kindergarten graduation present, Kevin Harvick got behind the wheel early and has been racing ever since. By the age of 20, he became a NASCAR Rookie of the Year in the Featherlite Southwest series. Soon he was racing in all three of NASCAR’s most prestigious nationwide series. In two of these series he would win Rookie of the Year honors. Only one year after being named the NASCAR Busch series Rookie of the Year, he would win the Busch series championship in 2001. He’d win it again in 2006. With 11 wins, 5 poles, 51 Top 5 finishes, 105 Top 10 finishes, and almost $40 million in earnings during his still young NASCAR career, Harvick has certainly delivered on the early promise he showed as a 5-year-old in his go-kart. There’s no telling how much farther and faster this speed demon will go!
