Mike Skinner won his second race of the season in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, leading 180 of 200 laps at the Iowa Speedway on Saturday night. It was the second victory of the year and 27th of his career for the
Safety-Kleen sponsored
Randy Moss Motorsports (Randy Moss of the New England Patriots NFL team). Skinner, who started on the pole, pulled away from
Aric Almirola on a restart with four laps to go when Almirola pitted and took only two tires. This move proved not good enough to hold off Skinner in the closing laps.
Colin Braun had another strong race by finishing third. He passed
Ron Hornaday for the position with 10 laps to go.
Johnny Sauter scored a fifth place finish while
Safety-Kleen's Hornaday's fourth place gave him a 225 points lead over
Matt Crafton, who finished sixth.
