Quote of the week
"I'm still confused on whether I am on probation or not on probation. So, I can't answer that; I don't really know."
Kevin Harvick, right, when asked Friday about how hard he'd race if tonight's All-Star Race came down to him against rival Kyle Busch. Both are on probation for an incident two weeks ago. Late Friday, NASCAR met with Harvick to remind him that the probation for both drivers does include the non-points All-Star Race.
