Local driver Matt Bowling won the Denny Hamlin Short Track Showdown on Thursday night defeating a field of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers at South Boston Speedway.<\/p>\n

Bowling was the 2012 NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Late Model Stock Car track champion at South Boston. On Thursday night he finished ahead of Cup drivers Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth and Denny Hamlin.<\/p>\n

“I can’t believe it,” said Bowling after the race. “The 0 (Waltz) was really, really fast. I just rode and rode and saved my stuff and it worked out that we had enough at the end. I saw he was fading a little bit and I turned the wick up a whole lot.”<\/p>\n
