FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Todd Bodine slipped under Mike Skinner with 23 laps to go and then held the lead after a final restart to win the NASCAR truck race Friday night at Texas Motor Speedway.

The Silverado 350 was Bodine's third victory this season, and the fifth in his career. He also won at Texas last fall.

"I was running basically wide open," Bodine said. "The truck was absolutely perfect."

Skinner, the polesitter, led 80 of the 147 laps and was running in front when one little slip on the backstretch allowed Bodine to get inside of him. Bodine took the lead for the first time, and kept it the rest of the way.

After the race's sixth and final caution, Bodine led the restart with 10 laps left in his Toyota. With Kyle Busch and Skinner driving side-by-side behind him, Bodine was able to build a gap and won by 1.162 seconds.  More
