NOTES:

This Week's Race Truck for New Hampshire Motor Speedway is Chassis No. 5-118.  Chassis No. 5-118  was raced four weeks ago at the Nashville Superspeedway where Skinner brought his Toyota Tundra home in the 17th spot.

Calling the Shots… Bill Davis Racing is pleased to announce veteran NASCAR crew chief Doug Richert has joined the organization as the crew chief on the No. 5 Toyota Tundra team. Richert has most recently worked with rookie Regan Smith at Dale Earnhardt Inc in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.

Pole Mania…  Skinner, who holds the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series record for poles (43), has two pole positions at the 1.058-mile oval. The 51-year-old Craftsman Truck Series Champion has an average start of 5.4 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Top 10-er…  The No. 5 Toyota Tundra team has captured more top-10 finishes this season than any other team in the Craftsman Truck Series.  The No. 5 has finished in the top-10 14 times in 17 races. 

One-Two…  During the 2006 event at Loudon, Skinner and his Bill Davis Racing teammate Johnny Benson earned the first one-two finish in Bill Davis Racing's history.  The duo started the race on the front row and crossed the finish line in first (Benson) and second (Skinner).

Listen and Watch … The Camping World RV Rental 200 scheduled to start at 3 p.m. EST, Saturday, Sept. 13.  It will broadcast on SPEED (TV), MRN (radio) and Sirius Satellite Radio (Ch. 128).

Bill Davis Racing Quotes:

Mike Skinner on Racing at New Hampshire Motor Speedway: "I really like New Hampshire.  We have run awfully well there in the Cup cars, Nationwide cars and the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.  We blew an
engine leading the race the first time I was there.  I am excited about going back and showing what this No. 5 team is capable of. 

"I think the race track is a one-groove track, and to be good, your truck has to be on the bottom.  It is a little too flat.  I love flat race tracks. You have to be so precise with your line and really get the truck to turn from the center of the corner out.  It is hard to pass, but if you have a good truck, you will get to the front.

"I am so excited about the addition of Doug to the No. 5 Toyota Tundra team.  He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this organization.  He has won races and raced for championships and will be a great addition not only the No. 5 team but Bill Davis Racing as a whole."
