RICHMOND, Va. -- Mike Skinner got his second straight NASCAR truck series victory by outrunning Todd Bodine and Kevin Harvick in a two-lap sprint to end a crash-filled race Thursday night at Richmond International Raceway.

Bodine went to the front in the Cheerios Betty Crocker 200 by staying on the track during a caution on Lap 143 when the leaders pitted for tires and fuel.

He pulled away initially when the race went back to green, but once the better trucks worked their way through traffic, their fresher rubber allowed them to start gaining.

Skinner finally pulled his Toyota into close view of Bodine with about 15 laps to go. On the 188th of 200 laps, the former series champion ducked underneath Bodine on the backstretch and pulled ahead entering Turns 3 and 4.

Then Skinner held on through four more restarts to win for the 18th time on the Craftsman circuit.  More
