2013-Clint-Bowyer-Daytona500-PracticeCORNELIUS, N.C. — Need a new Toyota? Give Clint Bowyer a call.

Before the No. 15 5-hour ENERGY Toyota driver travels to Auto Club Speedway for Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup race, Bowyer spent a few days in his hometown of Emporia, Kan. opening the new Clint Bowyer Autoplex.

Bowyer partnered with Davis-Moore Auto Group to purchase the Toyota dealership, formerly called Emporia Motors, where he once worked as a paint-less dent repair specialist and detailer. The Clint Bowyer Autoplex, 2815 U.S. Highway 50 in Emporia, is across the street from the Clint Bowyer Community Building.

Davis-Moore Auto Group, out of Wichita, Kan., will run the day-to-day operations, while Bowyer focuses on his duties at Michael Waltrip Racing. Bowyer is fourth in driver points as the series visits the two-mile track in Fontana, Calif.
