NASCAR News: Logano Wins. And Harvick Finishes 2nd – For the 42nd Time

Joey Logano won the race at the rain delayed Bank of America 500. And Kevin Harvick finished second, for the 11th time this year and the 42nd time in his career. I checked - and that's not even the record for current drivers. According to Jayski.com, Tony Stewart has 43, Jimmie Johnson has 46 and Jeff Gordon has 75 second place finishes.

The record for second place finishes? Richard Petty had 157.

So, Harvick's got a ways to go.
