- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 มิ.ย. 2024
- Kevin Harvick steps out of the driver’s seat and into the Bojangles Studio to join Dale Earnhardt Jr. on this episode of the Download. Fresh off his last start as a full-time Cup competitor, Kevin returns to the show to discuss his retirement weekend with Dale and co-host Mike Davis. Although he’s developed a reputation for being a stern personality, Kevin explains the overwhelming emotion he felt throughout the race weekend in Phoenix. They also chat about the things that Kevin thought he would miss about being behind the wheel and some of the advice he received from fellow retirees.
While he may be absent from the starting grid next year, Kevin will still be a prominent member of the sport both as a broadcaster, a racing dad, and a series owner. Dale and Kevin examine the transition from racer to commentator and what to look forward to in the Fox Sports booth next year. Kevin also highlights ways he hopes to impart knowledge to up-and-coming drivers through Kevin Harvick Inc. Management and being a car and series owner for the CARS Tour.
Finally, Kevin touches on prepping his son Keelan for a long racing career to help continue the Harvick racing legacy, which has spanned the last 30 years.

I could be wrong, but I think this is the first time that DJD has uploaded more than 1 full episode on TH-cam! Love it
Idk if they have been putting them up and deleting them after a min but I’ve been seeing tons of full ep of djd actions det. And dbc wish they did this every ep
@@dedo7326 Actions Detrimental full episodes are uploaded weekly and I think DBC does it weekly too
I agree, easiest way to watch. I totally understand them wanting all the traffic on the djd website but this is the most convenient
They posted Newgarden’s and Jamie Mac’s
@@dirtking56 I know Palou was 2021, Newgarden was 2022 I think, but this year it’s the first time they uploaded more than 1 episode of DJD full episodes
So glad that Dale and Harvick on back on good terms.
I'm not even a big NASCAR fan, but Dale Jr. comes across as so down to earth, personable, and even vulnerable at times that these episodes are must watch for me. He and Mike are really doing a great job showing the humanity of the drivers.
The opposite of Harvick
The fact that so many drivers have stepped out of the cars yet are staying heavily involved in the sport to help improve it says volumes about these guys. Mega cudos for staying involved and not just walking away. I know some drivers have and that is 100% ok. They have their reasons but we have so many who are staying involved.
I really hope Harvick becomes a yearly figure here, and not just for selfish reasons, but because the conversation between these two top tier champions and friends is just so enjoyable. Amazing insight, and a wonderful listen.
Especially once they buried the hatchet. The dynamic and chemistry between these two is great
They definitely need to do a post Fox recap and see how it went for Harvick
Sure will miss seeing Dale Jr watching all his shows
Go Harvick!!! Your path is guided by the right spirit.
5:41 "How do I make sure that I give back enough to help the next generation of people that are coming along"
Ideal.
And we all have our own talents and ways.
For me, I am fighting (in the courts) against encroachment of our constitutional liberties.
Love both of you! From watching you grow up, mature, racing to become fathers and then retiring! I will miss you racing and look forward to see you in the booth!
After watching this ....in not crying you're crying ....man I'm going to miss rooting for him every week
Thank you Dirty Mo media. And Dale Jr. For showing the entire show. Awesome show.
Thank you so much for posting this full episode on TH-cam. It was awesome to watch the full episode. Hope that you will upload more full episode rather then just Parr of one. I love watching these videos.
Please, let's have KH and JR together multiple times during the season to chat about what's going on with CARS and NASCAR in general!
Thank you for the whole episode! 🙌
So much admaration & respect for Kevin Harvick 😊😊
Why
@@davidrice3337 you don,t like Harvick , so none of your business !!
Finally the full Podcast! Thank you hopefully you will upload more!
Nice to see full video episodes. I would rather the full episodes than getting it piecemeal.
Kevin Harvick became my new driver the moment he won at Atlanta. Love ya too Jr. you two were the reasons I fell
In love with NASCAR and gave me plenty to talk with my Grandad and my uncles about for years. You two are legends in my eyes and deserve a spot in the NASCAR HALL OF FAME!!! 🤘🏻😎💜🏁
I really appreciate you guys uploading a whole podcast in video. I would love to see more full podcast in this format.
Thanks for the post, DirtyMo Media!!
Thanks for the Great Ride, Kevin!!
Now watch those kids grow up!!
Best show yet. Everybody had fun.mike you must have been aw listening to all these great stories. Jr asked all the right questions with Kevin giving good and right to the point answers. This podcast was a lot of fun listening to. Thanks Jr for this. Thanks to the editors for not segmenting this podcast. This is the way it should always be.
3EVER Kevin Harvick you will be missed on the track.
Agree totally. Also a pity that Mike Davis wont be aboard in 2024. Mike sure can ask the correct question at the right time. One of the best.
Didn't know Mike was leaving. This will change some of the dynamics the show. Who would be a good replacement Kelly maybe?
For sure need full episodes uploaded to TH-cam 🤘🏼
Harvick should be considered as one of the many people who sits in Mike’s seat moving forward. Thank you for what you have done for this sport I have loved for 50 years. Wishing you and your family many blessings in the future.
Love This Dale, Full time Interviews, Love ❤️ This,, 😊😊Awesome Kevin,,
Many Thanks Guys
Love Kevin
Nascar has been a part of my life every wkend and more since I was a kid ....I'm 58 now....All of you are a part of my family...I feel similar emotions with all of you guys...I never wanna see anybody go....I am a Dale Sr. fan...I still do get emotional at times thinking back of him...I love all you guys...Happy retirement Harvick even though we will see you every wk on the TV deal...You will be great at that jus like Dale Jr. has become 1 of the best...
Love the long episodes on U Tube thank you D J
From Canada : Thanks Kevin.
Love the longer episodes
Good job by Junior and Mike Davis. Big interview Kevin. Happy Holiday's.
5 stars... One of the most enjoyable interviews I have ever seen. Thank You all for making my day.
Just really good stuff.
I woke up in the middle of the night and started watching this, thinking it would be 20 minutes long, or something like that. I stayed up and watched every second.....
I just wanted to thank both of you for the memories and, well.....for everything.
I'd like to thank you , Kevin for putting the number I identify with into the list of championship. The number four was buried in the Morgan-Mcclure bog with no way to reach it. I grew up having the number four in every sport I tried out for (yes, I had asked for it later, but it was Little League, Pop Warner, running, whatever, from the start) I was really glad to have a known driver with my number, actually winning races. Thank You so much. Your championship put some air into my shirts.
The “Morgan-McClure bog”? ur talking about 2001/02 forward? cus irregardless of championships the kodak #4 was iconic in the 90’s.. and is still iconic to this day… Ernie Irvan? Sterling Marlin? Three Daytona 500s? including two of those back-to-back..
14 cup wins? also the #4 ran with Kasey Kahne for 2011 for Red Bull.. Stewart Haas didn’t get the #4 from MMM.
now I do understand what ur saying about Harvick bringing that number a championship but lets put some respect on Morgan-McClure Motorsports c’mon
I hope this posting full Episodes will become a Weekly thing in 2024
Loving the full episode drops !!!
Gonna be different not seeing Kevin in that 4 car. Glad he is sticking around the sport, he is definitely needed.
Such an incredible driver and person, so glad Kevin has been my driver since 2001. not sure how i'm gonna feel about next year, not seeing him on the track, but i'll figure it out. Kevin, thanks so much for being so great for so long. I went to my first race ever this year because you were gonna not be there next year. and i chose Talladega, a place that is bigger than life, so great to see the drag race to the end with Blaney. so amazing. thanks for being you, good luck from here on out!!!!!
Thank you for all the years especially at the beginning of your cup career we all know how hard it was to step in may your next chapter of your life be great love ya harvick
Harvick became my favorite in the late 2000’s I followed him through to SHR and man I’m so happy for him. This sport is in good hands so long as he’s behind the scenes trying to help elevate the sport.
This has been one of the best DJD's to date . Good on all of you!!
Excellent interview!! It was great questions & great answers!! Thank you, Dirty Mo & Kevin!!
Fullll episode 🙌🙌🙌
Congratulations Kevin harvick on retiring looking forward to so much more from you hey guys it's funny you mentioned something about who you don't like and then the experiences of growing up around them now with your kids
Now up north we have a thing which you guys have to which is travel sports and we run a company that deals with that and watching the kids the parents their relationships people that you knew from the past now talking and you know watching Kyle Busch's Braxton's racing on TH-cam and now watching harvick's kid racing you'll end up on the track a lot together during those times and it's funny because your relationship from being on the track not liking each other turns into a good friendship because your kids are competing with each other and might end up one day both beyond Junior Motorsports racing who knows
Great work guys Mike Davis sad you're not going to be doing this anymore I always think you bring such a unique perspective from things for the non-driver who's helping out
Thank you for this ❤
Kevin and Dale were the 2 NASCAR drivers that Papyrus used for testing of NASCAR Racing 4, which was the first version of the game where the tires could leave the ground. It was so cool to be a game testers knowing those guys would be able to contribute. I very vividly remember Dale posting in the testing forum...."I used my Dover setup and the car felt just the same."
appreciate the entire episode DEJDMM
Class act
Gained so much respect for Kevin Harvick from this interview.
No what all of you guys and kids do I hope that you all do it safely I think no matter who any of us are as fans of who ever we all want the same thing we all want all of you to be safe and to live a long and happy life
He was fav driver. Will be different not cheering for him in April in Martinsville 😊
Reinventing your life and being on the road in retirement. Is something so many Americans have done. Buying a motorhome you can afford and operate. Getting rid of all your stuff in a big house. It took us 5 years to downsize to a point where we didn't need a storage. Good luck, be patient, enjoy traveling with friends and family. Happy retirement...
Being a Dale fan he became my first pick each week, he was competitive each and every week. Got his championship and a couple 500s .
I remember how much Daddy Dale hated practice and testing, though he did enjoy the first Brickyard tire test...
Love your podcast dale, I've been a huge fan of yours ever since you raced in the exfinity series. So I'm looking forward to seeing more.
While these guys seem to be real in what they are saying are still on a different level than the usual Saturday night racing. Their struggles are different and I love the chatting and wish them all the luck to them and their family! Go Dirty Mo!
I didn't love Harvick until watching this. Great guy.
To you Kevin Harvick I am always going to remember you and hope you have a great time doing everything you do now that you are retired 😢but remember that I am so ready to see you in the booth coming February 18th ...#29,4 ever❤️great job Jr ❤
great show ,,
Harvick really is intelligent. I look forward to hearing more of him as the ownership group move forward.
The 29 car was definitely 👌 it for us diehard old school fans
I can't believe this. But I took Mike Davis for granted. I'm gonna miss that sob
I loved the part where they talked about the #29 for the All-Star race coming together. Kevin mentioned Chocolate Myers. A few 8 or 10 years ago my parents and I went to RCR for a tour when they visited me in Greensboro. At the end of the tour CM had walked in the area. I said "Hey Chocolate. How are you doing?" The man spoke to me like I was an old friend. Couldn't have been a nicer guy. Later, my Mom asked me how I knew him. When I told her that was the first time I'd ever met him she almost didn't believe me. I'll always be a fan of Chocolate Myers (and Kevin Harvick).
I think it's safe to say that Kevin Harvick is the last of the true NASCAR legends. Not to mention the man whose car he drove, but the guys he ran with....Gordon, Stewart, the Labontes, Elliott, Jarrett, Martin, the Burtons, the Busch's, just to name a few...he is the last of NASCAR'S last golden age.
Jr Kevin is looking for a ride in the 88 that'll be your all star car
Harvick needs to drive the #88 JR Motorsports car in a couple races
I just realized that Dale Jr. is the same age Dale Sr. was when he died at Daytona. 22 years ago.
Thanks!
I just noticed that Dale, Mike, and Kevin all have glasses on, I've got my glasses too. I guess it's a sign that we are all getting older, LOL. All of you keep up the good work. DDDDDOUG
I think it would be awesome for Kevin and Carl Edwards to do race commentary together.
Harvick is a standup guy.
Dale Jr. download suggestion - I would love to hear about how his dad's song "Hard Charger" from the early 1980s came to be. How did that start and were other songs presented to him. I know he was in a Brooks and Dunn video later on. It would just be fun to hear about how he got involved with those music opportunities.
Rodney Childers is the man I ran go karts with him in 1994 at Daytona at the municipal stadium! He was the man
Kevin has a PhD in
Racing!!
Great show guys
Kevin’s been my driver for a while now. Not sure where to hang my hat now. 😢
Kevin, you were always top dog. You drove like a test pilot. You were picked to be Dale Earnhardt protégé. You’ve never got to run a lap with him. Had you equipment been up to the standards? Dale Earnhardt demanded you could’ve won five championships by now I’m retiring too. Enjoy your new life.
Please keep the full interview videos going on TH-cam!!
I sure will miss Mike him and Dale were funny a lot of times
Please upload more DJD full-episodes 🙏
You have a combination of the old system and the new points system so that you have two championships with the possibility of one driver winning both or it could be won by two different drivers. You just adjust the points system so that both are accounted for.
Why are you taking in the third person Kevin??
Harvick looks like a science teacher in jr.high lol
Ya done good partner ya done good 😊
Hate to see the changing of the guard. Gonna miss him driving; I see his team is already starting to go their separate ways--Tim Fedewa to Ryan Blaney. I'll watch the Daytona 500 to see how KH does; after that I don't know.
We as fans hoped NASCAR was gonna "take a big swing at it" with the Phoenix test, but it sounds like they really didn't. Hey, but they tested mufflers!!
The Race is over
Uncle Harv is the uncle you dont want to show up at Thanksgiving
I have a whole new perspective on KH the businessman.
Harvick was also the last to race under Winston sponsorship.
Google his downsizing of the house..its awesome
In reference to the playoffs, why does Nascar not rotate the championship track every year? Why is Phoenix the track? Why not give Nascar fans that live in other areas opportunities to see a championship race! I think it would be cool to see a Pocono, Bristol, Daytona etc. Championship Race. Can you start the conversation or maybe explain why Phoenix is the track last race of the year, year after year?
Any cars on the table for sale ?
24:42 So much for never driving a cup car again..lol.😄
Just quit stopping the races!!! No heat races!!!
Kevin my advice is when you put in your motorhome with your family...be sure to carry a gun or 2 or 3 to protect your family if necessary it's always better safe than sorry so Carry you a gun
How would any business get done without Kelley?😂
What would Mike Patey do?? 😉
Junebug has a way of talking to people.
The task of replacing THE legend, standing up for himself when the team and sponsors wanted him to be Dale Earnhardt, somehow exceeding his own expectations, and retired gracefully as a legend who was capable of winning races until he took his final checkered flag. Racing isn't going to be the same without him.
Just watched an hour of the Kevin Harvick tribute on FOX tonite (1/22/24). I watched this video when it first came out and it is/was superior to the FOX offering. I see FOX is still in love with the PED boy, from the Yankees. The guy was a cheater and I cannot believe Harvick gives one toot about him. My thoughts on the FOX program are: (1) I guess Mike Joy is of the belief that Mark Martin is the best driver to not win a championship. (2) Too bad FOX didn't have a clip on Junior wishing Kevin well with his new career because Junior would give the program more credibility. (3) Junior's podcast titled The Closers last race was well done an a whole lot more informative and entertaining than the FOX show tonite!! Jens Notestein
Still doubting SVG after Sonoma? So many points to counter this bad take. The fact that he’s been able to finish top 15 consistently on ovals straight up against driver who have been doing it for years (decades) with very limited practice is impressive. His learning curve will be unquestionably as good as a young driver as he gets seat time. Finally what is overlooked is that the Kaulig Cars are not particularly great this year. Ok on super speedways but mid pack on mile and a half. I actually doubt they are actually the best on road courses. TheJR and Gibbs cars seem to have better pace. I bet Josh B wishes he was in a JGR car this weekend. Track house gets a third charter and Zane gets a ride at Kaulig.
Great video but some constructive criticism stop saying spilled the beans so much please
