Joey Logano, left, and Kevin Harvick head out of Turn 2 during the Gillette Fusion ProGlide 500 at Pocono Raceway on June 6. A few laps later, near the end of the race, Harvick nudged Logano into the wall. (Photo: Associated Press)
The tension between the two was already there, but words flew after crewmen barred Logano from confronting Harvick following a late-race incident at Pocono. Logano said Harvick's wife, DeLana, "wears the firesuit" in the family and called Harvick "stupid." Harvick said he couldn't talk to Logano because "he's 20."
My take: Logano needed to stand up for himself, but it would've looked better had he not been obviously encouraged by his irate father.

I've watched the replay of the race action many times and here my take: The contact made between the 2 was minor and normal racing. It was the end of the race and it was time to try and win. But Joey did say something important at the end of the race that is being overlooked , or not discussed. Harvick let Logano go on the backstretch to get into position to dump him in the corner. If you watch, off turn 2 Harvick pulls to the inside and lets up. This is normal Martin-like behaviour for sportman-ly allowing a faster car to go by. But Harvick only let him have pass 3/4 of the way and then was back on him through the corner to hold Logano's left rear quarter at Harvicks right front bumper. And Harvick must have known contact was inevitable and he knew he wouldn't be paying the consequences when it happened.
Harvick deserves a punch in the face for that. Not for the contact, but intentionally creating a scenario that would comprise Joey.
And Harvick is still a for getting punked out by Peblo at Watkins Glen 2 years ago.

Anyways, Jr and Martin qualified crappy. A bunch of idiots up front. So inspite who I said i would never pick last week, this week I'll hex 'em and pick:
1. JJ
2. Killer
3. Peblo
1st caution: Sam Hornish (some things never change, but he had a really good race last week. At the end I actually wanted him to win!)
# of cautions: 3
1st to the garage (last): Joe Nemechek

...Hi `Chris,
I don't hate Happy Harvick, I just think he drives dirty & not fair....I think he has a gifted talent for racing, but he will knock a racer out for a position or for a win....
I stated b-4, I think he drivers more like Dale Sr, then Dale Jr does.. Dale Sr would knock anyone outa the way
They are both super aggressive drivers 4-Sure....
Are you watching the race ???? I'm listening to it on the above link....
Wish U & reader's a Happy Harvick `Day....
Joey is in 17th & Happy is in 18th WOW LOL WIsh I could watch the race 4-Sure, but happy/thankful that I can listen : )
