Kevin Harvick will lead Richard Childress Racing’s (RCR) charge for the 2003 NASCAR Busch Series Championship in the PayDay Chevrolet Monte Carlo, announced Wynn Willard, a senior vice president and the chief marketing officer at Hershey Foods Corp., maker of PayDay candy bars. Harvick will compete in 15 of the 34 events on the schedule. Current RCR BGN driver Johnny Sauter will compete in the remainder of the events. The events each driver competes in will be determined in the weeks ahead. “I’m glad to be staying with RCR next year and I look forward to working with Kevin Harvick in the #21 PayDay car,” Sauter said. “Obviously, Kevin knows what it takes to win a Busch Series championship and I’m sure I can learn a few things from him along the way. We won’t be running for a driver’s championship but there’s every reason to believe we can win the owner’s championship.”(RCR PR)(10-10-2002)
