CONCORD, N.C. — Keelan Harvick had something to celebrate in round three of Cook Out Summer Shootout competition at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
Harvick made a daring move with two laps to go earned him the victory in the Night Owl Companies Young Lions Division.
Harvick started on the pole, leading the first four laps of the race before week one winner Max Reaves quickly took the point position.
Reaves looked to have his cake and eat it too but a mechanical failure from Neal Dulin produced a caution bunching the field up.
Three late-race cautions closed in the race giving Harvick a final chance to make it past Reaves. Harvick then completed a competitive last lap win, holding off the aggressive field behind him to finish with a 0.35-second lead.
“Thanks to Max [Reaves] for racing me clean,” Harvick said on the intense final laps. “This is my second year here [at Cook Out Summer Shootout] and I’ve always wanted to win one of these races.”
Also making trips to victory lane were Corbin Cannon (Night Owl Companies Beginner Bandos), Camden Truett (Bandits), TJ Moon (Bojangles Outlaws), Benjamin Rogers (Chargers), Michael Crafton (VP Fuels Semi-Pro), Jake Bolman (Pro) and Robby Faggart (Masters) all took the cake.
