Harvick Holds at Homestead

Kevin Harvick held off Jamie McMurray's bid for a third consecutive victory, taking a green-white checkered flag in the NASCAR Busch Series season-ending Ford 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Saturday.

Harvick was in front following a restart with three laps remaining and hung on for his 13th career Busch Series win and second this season, finishing .218 seconds ahead of McMurray's Dodge Intrepid.

"I knew coming in to the checker that (McMurray) was going to drive it in for all that it was worth coming into turn 3, so I just backed off and made sure that I was able to get a good run coming off the corner," Harvick said. "He was outside there in the center of the corner, but I got a good drive off the corner. We did what we had to do."
