Kevin Harvick said he was eager to get started with his new team, Stewart-Haas Racing, and his new crew chief, Rodney Childers, and he wasn't kidding.
Harvick was the unofficial star of the show at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Wednesday, where NASCAR conducted testing to determine its 2014 aerodynamic rules packages. All told, the teams ran five simulated sprint races, with Harvick winning three of them and finishing second and third in the other two in his No. 4 SHR Chevrolet SS.
"It's like that roller coaster that you ride for the first time," Harvick said. "You want that thrill and that excitement of the unknown. There's obviously a lot of unknowns that we'll learn and adjust for, but I feel like I've developed a good relationship with Rodney."
At CMS, the teams ran four simulated 30-lap races and one 15-lap race, in a variety of configurations, with tweaks to spoilers, radiator pans, roof pans, rear fascia and the front splitter.
