📖 Full Retelling
Kevin Harvick might know NASCAR's next star pretty well. In fact, he might be influencing his driving style without even knowing it. Harvick's son, Keelan, is 13 and has already signed a long-term deal with Toyota Racing Development. He's following in the path of his father, and taking after his skills, too. That was displayed in a side-by-side shot on the latest episode of "SPEED with Harvick and Buxton" that showed the two Harvick's behind the wheel of a car. Each of Keelan Harvick's motions mimicked his famous father's — from his hand placement on the wheel to his mannerisms. "I'm not sure which is which, mate," Will Buxton said on the show. "I had to rewind it, and you look at his hand, and the way he turns his steering wheel, and everything that he's doing in there. I'm definitely glad to know that he's 100 percent mine," Kevin Harvick opined. "I guess he's listening." While the two have a friendly father-son rivalry on the track in past racing showdowns, Keelan Harvick won Saturday night at The Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, leading the majority of the race to earn his first CARS Tour West Pro Late Model victory of the season in the 125-lap Terrible Herbst Showdown. Meanwhile, his father was surprised on-air Sunday with the news he was one of the 15 people named as nominees for induction into the NASCAR Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2027.
