9th place - Tires still haunting Harvick

DOVER, Del. - Kevin Harvick can’t seem to get away from tire problems.
Early in Sunday's race at Dover he had to pit under green because his No. 29 Chevrolet had a loose wheel. And later, already two laps down, he was forced to pit again under green for a flat tire.
Harvick also had a flat during last weekend's race at New Hampshire.
At one time he was 37th on Sunday, but with the help of the late-race wrecks, he ended up a respectable 20th.
