The race lasted for 30 laps which saw a whopping 11 lead changes. Keelan was up against some of the best racers of his age like Jacob Staten and Aiden McConnaughey. With just 3 laps to go in the race, Harvick passed Staten for the lead and held on to take the victory. Staten was passed by McConnaughey again before the checkered flag fell and was demoted from P1 to P3 in the space of just 3 laps. It was proper racing, something that a lot of people enjoyed.

After the race, Keelan Harvick acknowledged the work he had to put in and displayed his sportsman’s spirit when he said that Staten had done a good job of racing him clean. It seems like Kevin Harvick is raising a proper gentleman on track. “It was really hard. Good job to Jacob. He raised me clean. I just got loose up there off the last corner and just wasn’t letting that one go,” Keelan said.
It will be interesting to see what the future holds for young Keelan. If he continues to race this way then one day he might even end up outperforming his championship-winning father. That would be one hell of an achievement.
