Put on a Happy face

AVONDALE, Ariz. -- If Kevin Harvick had any doubts about the direction his race team was headed, they were eased with a dominating performance in the desert that ended a 38-race winless drought.

Harvick completed a sweep at Phoenix International Raceway on Saturday night, winning the Nextel Cup race to go along with his Busch Series victory a day before.

Harvick was off the radar most of the race, driving a car that ran in the top 10 but never challenged for the lead.

He made his move late, passing Greg Biffle with 10 laps to race away to his sixth career victory.

Once Harvick got by Biffle, it was clear sailing because the top challengers had late fuel problems.

Biffle ran out of gas, then Mark Martin's tank went dry. It left only Tony Stewart to chase Harvick down and he never got close.  More
