Harvick wins NAPA 200 in Montreal

MONTREAL, Aug. 4 (UPI) -- Kevin Harvick won Saturday's Busch NAPA Auto Parts 200, finishing 0.330 seconds ahead of Canadian Patrick Carpentier.

The victory was Harvick's fourth of the season and 30th of his Busch Series career.

Bobby Gordon spun out then-leader Pruett Ambrosein in the second corner late in the race. Harvick inherited the lead and, after holding off Carpentier, was declared the winner.

Gordon claimed he won the race, but Harvick was the actual winner as Gordon had been black-flagged and his final laps weren't counted by the scoring computer.

Carl Edwards finished 30th, but still maintains a strong point lead for the season championship.

Next week's Busch race will be another road-course event, this time at Watkins Glen International in New York.
