Harvick Tops Stewart For First Road-Race Victory At Watkins Glen
Kevin Harvick passed Tony Stewart with three laps to go at Watkins Glen International to win his first road race. He overcame Stewart who had won three of four previous Glen Cup races, with Harvick finishing strong after moving past Jeff Burton into third in the standings. Kurt Busch led early until a late pit stop penalty shuffled him back, and a multicar crash on the final laps ended his bid. Busch dropped to 19th as Earnhardt Jr. retained 10th in the Chase standings, with the top 10 race entrants to determine the NexTel Cup title over the final 10 races.
