The Kobalt Tools 400 will take place at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday. Kevin Harvick will be hoping to do well and pick up another batch of points in the third Sprint Cup race of the 2012 season.
Harvick currently stands in third place overall in the Sprint Cup standings with 81 points, seven points behind overall leader Denny Hamlin and just two points behind Greg Biffle for second place. Harvick has top-ten finishes in each of the first two races and he'll hope to keep that streak going. Harvick has great placement in the starting lineup once again, as he qualified for the third slot, behind Kasey Kahne and Kyle Busch.
Harvick did not participate in Saturday's Nationwide Series race, which was won by Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
The race will begin at 12:08 p.m. PDT on Sunday, so hopefully you remembered to set your clocks forward. The telecast can be found on FOX. No rain is expected, which of course is nothing but good news.
