Kevin
Harvick Inc.’s No. 33 Nationwide Series
Car to Support Elk Foundation
MISSOULA, Mont. – NASCAR star and Kevin Harvick Inc. co-owner Kevin Harvick is
supporting the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation with a specially designed No. 33
Nationwide Series car to be raced Saturday, Oct. 25, at Memphis (Tenn.)
Motorsports Park in the Kroger 250.
The Chevrolet Monte Carlo will feature bumper-to-bumper Realtree camo design
with the RMEF logo and web address (www.elkfoundation.org) prominent on all
sides, hood and decklid.
Inspired by his first two elk hunts in 2007 and 2008, Harvick is a new life
member of the Elk Foundation and a supporter of RMEF work in habitat
stewardship and protection.
“I took a nice bull this fall in New Mexico,” said Harvick. “That incredible
hunt and experience helped me appreciate and admire the conservation work of
RMEF. This is an organization that’s doing great things to conserve wildlife
habitat. DeLana and I are proud to help the Elk Foundation continue its work
for future generations.”
The car will be driven by Cale Gale, a rookie sensation with Kevin Harvick Inc.
Gale has 12 Nationwide Series starts under his belt in 2008, with one pole, one
top-five finish and three top-10 finishes. He has earned Raybestos Rookie of
the Race honors six times this season.
“On behalf of the 155,000-plus members of RMEF, I can’t thank Kevin and DeLana
Harvick enough for their generosity in exposing the Elk Foundation to NASCAR
fans in this way,” said David Allen, president and CEO of the Elk Foundation.
“NASCAR fans are some of the most loyal wildlife conservationists and we are
proud to be a part of this racing opportunity to further our mission of
protecting land for wildlife.”
Qualifying is scheduled for Saturday morning, Oct. 25, followed by the
green-flag at 3:30 p.m., ET. Live race coverage can be seen on ESPN Classic and
Speed Channel.
