Mike
Skinner won his first
Craftsman Truck Series
victory of the season on
Saturday night in the
Qwik Liner Las Vegas 350
at Las Vegas Motor
Speedway.
Skinner took the lead
from Erik Darnell on the
final lap and edged out
Darnell by
two-hundredths of a
second for his 25th
career series victory.
“Skinner got a run
and I tried to hold him
off. I ran those last
two laps wide open and
I’m sure he did too. His
truck was just a little
bit better than ours on
a restart.” Darnell
said.
“Erik's (Darnell)
truck was awfully good.
That 6 was right up my
butt. I knew I wasn't
going to wreck to win
the race. I was going to
push him, bounce off of
him, do whatever I
needed to do but he's a
friend, he's a class act
and he has a great
future in this
business.” Skinner said.
Matt Crafton finished
third, John Andretti
fourth and Ron Hornaday
finished fifth.
Johnny Benson cut a
right front tire on lap
64 of the race. He was
done for the night and
finished 27th and now
holds a 1 point lead
over Hornaday in the
series standings.
“I hate to see Johnny
do that. He was running
very hard. I saw he
didn’t put tires on
there at the beginning
and I blew a tire here
last time.” Hornaday
said.
