    Clint Bowyer didn't even try to hide his excitement at finally winning a NASCAR race in his home state, especially after coming so close twice before.

    "We've had some good runs here, but we haven't been able to seal the deal," Bowyer said after dominating Saturday's Trucks race at Kansas Speedway.

This track means a lot to me, I watched this place being built and dreamed of being able to race here in anything, so to be able to roll into victory lane is pretty cool."

    Bowyer, who grew up 90 miles away in Emporia, had finished second at Kansas once in Sprint Cup competition and once in the Nationwide series. But on Saturday, he dominated throughout and snapped Kyle Busch's winning streak at three races.
