Have you ever wondered what it’s like to watch a race through the eyes of a former Sprint Cup crew chief? JeremiahBoyce.com begins a series where he will take you in the NBCSN broadcast booth with Rick Allen, Steve Letarte, and former driver Jeff Burton. On 8/9/15, it would come down to a battle of who would have enough gasoline in their tank. Between last year’s champion Kevin Harvick and Joey Logano who is already in this year’s fight to become the new champion, it was a battle to see who would have enough gasoline in their tank to make it to the finish line first. It looked like the reigning champ was going to pull it off, but he ran out of gasoline with only half a lap to go which allowed the Daytona 500 champion to claim the weekend sweep. Kevin Harvick still finished third in the Cheezit 355. We know we still have Kevin Harvick ahead of Joey Logano by 42 points in the overall standings. I liked my Sunday with Steve Letarte, Rick Allen, and former driver Jeff Burton. I learned how Steve used to think when he was on pit road as a crew chief, and how Jeff Burton would drive if he was still in the car today.
