Bad Boy Mowers is proud to announce that we are teaming up with Bill and Gail Davis again Sunday, March 2nd at the NASAR Sprint Cup Series airing on Fox beginning at 3:30 p.m. Mike Skinner will be driving the no. 27 Toyota Camry at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Mike Skinner born June 28, 1957 in Ontario, California is a NASCAR driver from Susanville,  California now living in Daytona Beach, FL.  He currently drives the #5 truck in the Craftsman Truck Series for Bill Davis Racing.

Mike Skinner competed in the inaugural 1995 SuperTruck Series (now Craftsman Truck Series). He was the series' first champion. He also holds the distinction of winning the first ever Truck Series event, barely edging NASCAR legend Terry Labonte. Skinner went on to win seven more races in 1995. In 1996, he impressively recorded another eight wins. He currently ranks third on the all-time Truck Series wins list with 24. He has earned 43 pole positions, a Craftsman Truck Series record. This season, Skinner had a streak of winning 6 poles in a row. In 2007 he won 3 of the first 4 races of the season, and 3 in a row—all on very distinctly different types of tracks: California (2 miles), Atlanta (1.5 miles), and Martinsville (.526 miles).

Mike Skinner has one NASCAR Nationwide Series victory. It came in 1999 at Atlanta Motor Speedwayin the #19 Yellow Freight Monte Carlo. NASCAR briefly stripped the win from Skinner for a post-race inspection violation. Runner-up Dave Blaney was given the win. Within a couple days, the victory was awarded back to Skinner.
