I Wear the Firesuit in this FamilyI guess I was the only person who wasn’t surprised to see Joey Logano sticking up for himself on pit road this weekend at Pocono. He had a similar, albeit less obviously confrontational, show of anger last year at Infineon in the Camping World West Series race when he sideswiped Patrick Long with his car on his way to the garage.

So if I had to pick a theme song for Joey it would be Britney Spears’ classic “Oops, I Did it Again,” because he’s “not that innocent.” Don’t let the big, cheesy “aw shucks” grin fool ya. The kid knows how to be pissed off.

Anyway, my bone of contention lies with his stupid remarks towards Kevin and DeLana Harvick. I’ve always respected Delana for her work with Kevin Harvick Inc. and it’s always been great to see her on pit road wearing a firesuit. I know Joey’s comments were said in anger and they’re obviously immature and stupid. There was absolutely no need to go there. And really, really, if someone wanted to stoop to his level they could make jokes all day about Joey’s dad and his need to be in the middle of everything involving his son. I’m just sayin’.

Anyway, Delana is my hero because she took the high road and made some fun out of the comment in the form of a t-shirt that will benefit charities.

The “I Wear the Firesuit in this Family” shirts are being sold for $15 in the KHI store with all proceeds going to the Kevin Harvick Foundation. The shirts will be officially licensed by NASCAR (with the NASCAR bar logo on ‘em), so you’ll be able to get them at NASCAR.com too.

Delana Harvick is one classy lady — in a firesuit! 🙂
