Kevin Harvick, No. 29

Kevin Harvick will pilot chassis No. 429 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable in the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. This Chevrolet is new to the No. 29 team lineup and will turn its first competitive laps this weekend at the 2.5-mile oval. immy John's joins Harvick and the No. 29 team for their fourth of eight races during the 2013 Sprint Cup Series season. The 37-year-old driver has competed in 12 events at Indianapolis Motor Speedway since his first NASCAR appearance at the track in 2001. Harvick visited Victory Lane in 2003, earned one pole award (2003) and has collected four top-five and seven top-10 finishes at the historic track. The RCR veteran has completed 99.4 percent (1,909 of 1,921) of the laps contested and is credited with 92 laps led. Harvick was also the first driver to win the Brickyard 400 from the pole position and is only one of two Sprint Cup Series drivers who have achieved this accomplishment.

You have won at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. How special is a win there, and why do you think you run so well at this track?

It's quite the place to win. I'm not sure exactly why we run so well at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, but it's a good track to perform well and we've done so throughout the years. Hopefully we can do the same thing this time around because it's a fun race to win. We ran well at Pocono Raceway and Auto Club Speedway, so the longer tracks have been treating us pretty well this season. I just hope that continues so we can experience another Brickyard 400 win. - Kevin Harvick

What are some of the challenges you face at Indianapolis Motor Speedway?

Track position. I think with this particular car, you have to get off of turns two and four well to get down the long straightaways. You really have to get your car to turn well in the center of all four corners to be able to throttle up and get your car to come off the corner with speed, and still be turning well so you have the momentum heading down the straightaways. - Kevin Harvick
