This week's race truck for California Speedway is Chassis No. 5-112.  This is the same truck Skinner ran last year at the final race of the year at Homestead Miami Speedway.

Last Year's Winner: Skinner won the San Bernardino 200 in front of his hometown crowd here last year before he went on to claim three wins in a row.  Skinner has all expectations of doing it again this year.

Home Sweet Home: Skinner will once again return to his hometown.  He was born in Ontario, Calif. and raised in Susanville, Calif., which is right outside of Fontana.

Double Duty: Not only will Skinner qualify and race his Toyota Tundra at California's two-mile track, but the NASCAR veteran will also attempt to qualify the second Sprint Cup Camry for Bill Davis Racing as well this weekend.
 
Autographs anyone?: Skinner will participate in a Toyota Motorsports autograph session Wednesday, Feb. 20 at Toyota's National Headquarters in Torrance, Calif.  The event is scheduled to last from 11:00 a.m. till 3:00 p.m.  This event will give Toyota employees a chance to get up close and personal with the Toyota Tundra family.

Listen and watch: The San Bernardino County 200 is scheduled to start at 3p.m. ET Saturday, February 23.  It will broadcast live on Speed Channel (TV), MRN (radio) and Sirius Satellite Radio (Ch. 128).

Mike Skinner on racing at California Speedway: "I am definitely looking forward to California.  I have a ton of family and friends there and I just love going there and putting on a good show.  Toyota's headquarters are there as well and we would love nothing more than to put this No. 5 Tundra in victory lane once again this year."

"I think with the change of the day for the NCTS race is going to help bring more fans as well.  It was a good call for the speedway to change it and I think you will see a lot more people paying attention to the Truck races this year.  Last year was a great year for the fans to watch it come down to the end, but I think this year should be even better."
