Bill Davis Racing's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series stable had an incredible 2007 season. The three teams together posted nine wins, 30 top-five finishes, 42 top-10 finishes and 12 poles. The No. 5 Tundra driver of Mike Skinner led the team with five victories, 17 top-five finishes, 20 top-10 finishes and 11 poles en route to a second-place finish in the NCTS Championship standings. Skinner set the NCTS record of most poles in a single season (11) after breaking the record (10) he set in 1995. With Skinner's 11 poles and developmental driver Ryan Mathews' pole earlier in the season, BDR now owns the single-season pole record in both the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and NASCAR Busch Series. Skinner also led the NCTS field in a number of categories, including driver rating (116.1), average start (2.5), average running position (6.54), laps in the top 15 (3678) and laps led (1105 laps, 1217.31 miles). Skinner also set a new NCTS record of most race winnings in a single season ($737,520). (VPS Motorimages)

To see Krista Voda cover NASCAR for SPEED, you'd never know she grew up on football, basketball and baseball; anything but auto racing. Although she was strictly a "stick-and-ball sports" reporter and fan until a few years ago, Voda, who hosts NCTS Setup and has been chronicling the epic points battle in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series recently, is often mistaken for a lifelong follower of the sport. "When I moved from football, basketball and horse racing over to motor sports, I had to work really hard to learn the background of the sport and its teams and drivers," Voda said. "After a while, people assumed I'd been a NASCAR fan all my life or had been covering it my entire career. That is the greatest compliment because at that point, you've won over and earned the respect of the diehard fans and the people who are loyal to the sport." (SPEEDtv.com Photo)
