Skinner wins 10th pole of season, ties own record

Autoracing Betting Lines

11/01/2007 - Fort Worth, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mike Skinner matched his all-time mark of 10 pole wins in a season when he captured the pole for Friday night's Silverado 350K Craftsman Truck Series race at the Texas Motor Speedway. The No.5 Toyota circled the fast 1.5-mile banked oval in 29.326 seconds (184.137 m.p.h.).

The pole victory, the 41st of his truck career, equaled the mark he set in 1995. He also won the series championship that season.

Starting alongside Skinner will be Chad McCumbee, who posted a time of 29.345 seconds.

Ted Musgrave (29.374) and Johnny Benson (29.399) will make up row two.

The Nextel Cup races may get all the publicity, but the two-man race between Skinner and Ron Hornaday Jr. (starting eighth) has been every bit as exciting as the Jeff Gordon-Jimmie Johnson matchup. The two have been at each other almost the entire season.

Skinner has been either first or second in the standings since the second race in late February.

Hornaday Jr. and the Kevin Harvick Inc. team took a little longer to get it going and he took over second place in race number seven at Mansfield, OH. Since then he has been either first or second. For the past five races, the pair have exchanged the lead back in forth each week.

Last week was Hornaday Jr.'s turn to take the lead. Following a second-place finish at Atlanta on Saturday, Hornaday Jr. took a four-point lead over Skinner, who finished fifth.

In June at the first Texas race, Skinner finished second and Hornaday Jr. fourth.

The race is set to drop the green flag on Friday at 9 p.m. (et).
