Matt Crafton Ruins Denny Hamlin's Day With Diabolical Plan



After Denny Hamlin punted Matt Crafton out of the lead in yesterday's Truck Series race, Crafton swore that "…what goes around, comes around".  Today, it came around in a big way, as Crafton was able to destroy Hamlin's chances with a diabolical plan.
"Denny learned the hard way that you should NEVER cross a Crafton!", Crafton said from outside the track, twirling a handlebar mustache he appeared to grow overnight.  "That'll be the LAST TIME he comes down to our lower series and tries to increase fan interest!"
Crafton, who remains in contention for the Camping World Truck Series championship, was spotted inside the garage area earlier today.  Afterward (once the race started), he sat behind a large wooden desk in a parking lot, stroking a fluffy white cat.
"It was real weird, seeing him sitting in that swivel chair outdoors", said race fan Will Minton, who'd parked next to Crafton's "lair".  "I mean, he just kept petting that cat of his, and occasionally rubbing both his hands together like Paul Bearer used to do."
Crafton was said to have stayed up through the night practicing his "evil, maniacal laugh", refused to divulge the details of his scheme, pointing out that he may need to use it again in the future.
"True geniuses NEVER reveal their methods", Crafton cackled, "besides, a plan so dastardly and devious could never be properly explained to a mere mortal!"
When asked if he simply switched the Master Switch in the #11 car with a faulty one, Crafton complained that they were "…ruining it for him."
