Kvapil still hot, wins pole in Bristol

Autoracing Betting Lines

08/22/2007 - Bristol, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Travis Kvapil won the last Craftsman Truck Series race and he hasn't slowed down yet, capturing the pole for this evening's O'Reilly 200 at the Bristol Motor Speedway. The No.6 Roush Fenway Racing Ford circled the 0.533-mile cement oval in 15.840 seconds (121.136 m.p.h.).

The pole victory was Kvapil's second of the season and third of his truck career.

Starting alongside Kvapil will be Brendan Gaughan, who posted a time of 15.859 seconds.

Regan Smith (15.860) and Ryan Mathews (15.870) will make up row two.

"Race leader Mike Skinner" is a phrase used quite often this season. The driver of the No.5 Toyota truck has led at least one lap in the last 19 races dating back to the Atlanta Motor Speedway in October 2006.

Skinner, starting fifth, led 102 laps in the last Craftsman Truck Series race at the Nashville Superspeedway pushing him over the 1,000-miles led mark in 2007. It is the fifth time in the series the feat has been accomplished and the second time for Skinner, who did it in 1996. Skinner finished third in 1996 and is determined to finish a couple of positions higher this season.

Skinner has led the most laps in seven races this year while leading the series in points (2,521), winnings ($526,850), wins (4), poles (8), top-fives (12) and top-10s (14). He also leads Ron Hornaday Jr. by 82 points.

Wednesday's race will present a different challenge than usual at the 0.533- mile, high-banked, Bristol Motor Speedway short track. In addition to the traditional problems that driving at BMS includes there is the added feature of a newly paved race track.

The race is set to drop the green flag tonight at 8:00 p.m. (et).
