Crafton's No. 88 Menards Chevy has been in contention for victories each week, with the possible exception of Martinsville, and he'd like nothing better than to visit Victory Lane this time around.
"Our trucks have been awesome so far, and we were more than capable of winning the races at Daytona, California and Atlanta," Crafton said. "At Martinsville, we just missed on the setup. But our guys have built some great trucks for me, and I appreciate it. Hopefully, we can take our truck to Victory Lane this weekend."
In 8 career starts at Kansas, Crafton owns one top-5 finish, and has finished in the top-10 three times.
"I enjoy racing at Kansas," he said. "The track surface has come in a lot better as it has aged, and the track has multiple grooves now, so there's good side-by-side racing. There's plenty of room to move around. The fans at Kansas are great, too. There's always such a great turnout, and that adds to the excitement for the drivers."
Crafton is 5th in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series standings.
"We know consistency is the key to success in this series, that it's about putting yourself in position for good things to happen each time out, and that's what we expect on Saturday," he said. "It's tough with our schedule early in the season with the time off, because you want to be out there each week. During these open weeks, we've been busy doing some of the Grand Openings for Menards stores, which is always a lot of fun. But even when you're doing other things, you're constantly thinking about getting back on the track. We're ready to go."
