“Someone Must Tell (Kevin) Harvick” – NASCAR Fans Unsold on Hendrick Motorsports-Inspired $20 Move

Stewart-Haas Racing’s Kevin Harvick had a great time during the regular season this year. However, the in-form driver lost his calm at the very first Playoff race of the 2022 Cup Series. Blaming NASCAR and its latest Next Gen cars has become the norm for him. But now, Harvick has come up with something completely unexpected.

After Harvick took an early exit from the last Round of 16 Playoff race, all his hopes of qualifying to the Round of 12 were destroyed. Disqualified from the series, Harvick decided to take a different approach to communicate his frustrations with NASCAR.

Taking a jab at the Next Gen car, Harvick released a line of T-Shirts with the words “Happy’s Crappy-A** Parts 4 Less” printed on it. The T-shirts are made available on Harvick’s eStore Happy’s E-Shop at $20 each. As soon as Harvick shared this announcement on Twitter, the NASCAR community began expressing their views on the same.

Criticizing Harvick for making it all a joke., some NASCAR enthusiasts educated Harvick about the new Next Gen parts. Whereas, a few others saw it to be a distasteful joke.

While many others compared Harvick’s move to that of Alex Bowman, other Twitter users appreciated him for his witty actions.

The playoffs started on a bad note for Harvick. After his #4 Ford Mustang caught fire at the Darlington Speedway, “Happy Harvick’ did not seem happy with NASCAR at all. Blaming the Next Gen car’s “crappy parts” for his loss, Harvick went on to rant against the new Gen6 vehicles.

In an interview after his race at Darlington, Harvick said; “I’m sure it’s just the crappy parts on the race car, like we’ve seen so many times. What a disaster, man. No reason. We didn’t touch the wall, we didn’t touch a car, and here we are in the pits with a burned up car and can’t finish the race during the playoffs because of crappy-ass parts.”
