Skinner or Hornaday - who will win it?
It all comes down to tonight, the final race of the season with Mike Skinner 29 points ahead of Ron Hornaday. Both have be very successful this season and I'm sure it'll go down to the final laps unless one of them runs into some bad luck and gets caught up in a wreck.
Skinner does have a slight advantage, he's 29 points ahead and he has the tendency to get the pole, so that could add up to more bonus points for him right away, but as we know, this is the truck series and anything can happen.
It'll also be interesting to see if teammates play any role in the title, Skinner has teammate Johnny Benson and Hornaday has teammate and owner, Kevin Harvick. Skinner actually complained about both last week, Harvick because he drove through his pit stall and "threw off" his (Skinner's) pit crew's momentum and Benson, for not "giving" him a position at the end of the race. We all know Harvick will play interference if given the opportunity, but would Benson do the same for Skinner? I guess tonight will tell.
It should be an interesting race to say the least. Who will win the Championship? That's up for grabs, I think Skinner has a slight edge with the points lead, but I'll be hoping Hornaday can pull off the upset.
Your thoughts?

Kathy,
As much as I like NASCAR, I couldn't name 5 truck drivers w/o looking it up. So, by flipping a coin...Hornaday
