On Sunday, March 18th, NASCAR rolled into sunny Southern California during its final stop during "NASCAR Goes West" tour. The event was held at none other than the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana. A huge crowd came out to observe the 400-mile race, including many celebrities such as Ian Somerhalder, Olivia Holt, Michelle Monaghan, Ice Cube, Wilmer Valderrama and Caitlyn Jenner.
Multi-platinum rock band Bush performed at the race and was successful in energizing the crowd at Auto Club Speedway.
Although there were many famous attendees, the center of attention during Sunday’s race was Kevin Harvick. Harvick set an official track record during practice on the Friday prior to the race with a recorded 189.066 mile per
hour lap. All eyes were on him to see if he would keep that same momentum, but a crash during the race was a huge setback. Martin Truex Jr. crossed the finish line first and was declared the winner at Auto Club Speedway.
