NASCAR driver Kevin Harvick may want to think about taking up residence in Phoenix. 

He won his fourth straight race Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway. He has won five of the last six races and a record seven overall.

Harvick opened this season with two runner-up finishes, then won last week at Las Vegas and now in Phoenix.

The last driver to open a season with four finishes of second or better was the legendary Richard Petty in 1974.
