Daryl Harr started 22nd in the field and worked his way forward to 10th, one lap down to the leaders. Carl Harr started 19th and finished 24th, five laps back.
David Gilliland used lap traffic to slip by Kevin Harvick and pull away to win the United Rentals 100 at Phoenix International Raceway on Sunday.
While Gilliland was cruising to victory, Harvick had to make a quick pit stop for a dash of fuel. The stop led to a 13th-place finish for Harvick, who won the West Series championship in 1998 and is now a regular in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series.
Defending series champion Mike Duncan finished the race in second, with series rookie Jason Jefferson taking third. Mike David finished fourth, followed by Brandon Ash in fifth.
Gilliland hopes to challenge for the series championship this season, after winning the Rookie of the Year title a year ago.
