Kevin Harvick’s car took a little bit of damage, but it happened before the race even started in the most unexpected possible fashion. Prior to Sunday’s Sprint Cup race at Texas Motor Speedway after a parachute jumper’s sandbag nailed Harvick’s door on his No. 29 Chevy. You can see from the below video that it could have been much worse, but it is still quite odd. All told the damage still ended up taking 30 minutes to repair.
