Kevin Harvick had a big day Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway, winning the AAA Texas 500 with maximum bonus points and locking into the Championship 4 – but pulling a kid out of the stands and taking a selfie on the track was maybe an even bigger hit with fans.
The selfie everyone is talking about!@KevinHarvick snapped this picture with Joel Cram III after grabbing the ud83cudfc1 at @TXMotorSpeedway. #NASCARPlayoffs #4TheCup

The boy’s name is Joel Cram III and Harvick plucked him from the stands after taking the checkered flag and doing a finish-line interview on television.
Havick said later he hopes it’s a moment Joel will never forget. Pretty safe bet.
