Happy Harvick continued his breakout 2014 campaign today by winning the pole for tomorrow night’s 5-Hour Energy 400. It was Harvick’s 2nd pole of the season which is rather surprising considering he had just 6 poles when the season started in his 13 year old career in NASCAR. It was just a few weeks back that Harvick won the pole at Darlington and went on to led 238 laps in an absolutely dominating win. Tomorrow night Harvick will seek his 3rd win of the season at Kansas Speedway where he has been fairly strong throughout his career.
