Why did Keelan Harvick REALLY want his dad to win at Dover?


Kevin Harvick had a lot of reasons for wanting to win on Sunday at Dover International Speedway.
For starters, the Stewart-Haas Racing driver needed a victory to become qualified for the next round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
Furthermore, Harvick had never won in 29 previous starts at Dover -- one of the few places where he had never been to Victory Lane.
But on top of all that, Harvick wanted to win at Dover for his 3-year-old son, Keelan, who coveted one of the track's famous "Miles the Monster" trophies.
"I'm just happy we won because Keelan keeps asking for Miles the trophy," Harvick said after leading 355 of 400 laps on Sunday. "It'll probably be the only one we don't put in storage with the rest of them. It'll go in his playroom. That's what he asked to do with it. So I'm just glad that I didn't let him down."
Now that's a good dad.
Little dude was proud of dad, but he was even more pumped to bring home Miles the Monster! https://t.co/mL0nMowozR
