10:05 p.m. -- Post-race comments from race winner Mike Skinner: “Wow. It’s just amazing. I’ve been beaten many, many times when I’ve had the fastest truck. Erik Darnell is going to be sitting up here one day saying the same thing because he had the fastest truck tonight. We were just able to really work him hard on the restarts and he was trying to stop and go on the restarts.

The morning got off to a very quick start. When I arrived at the track, a close friend of mine, Scott W., was waiting for me. Scott planned on riding with me for the first one hundred miles or so. As we were preparing to get started, we noticed a news helicopter circling around, so we quickly got on our bikes and started doing laps in case they were filming. As it turns out, they were and that footage made the evening news with channel 13!

Driving to the speedway this morning and seeing all of the school buses and 15 mile per hour speed zones reminded me that fall is right around the corner. The starts of school and football season are staples of the fall, but the upcoming Labor Day weekend also means busy times in the racing world.
