Mike Skinner on racing at Daytona International Speedway:

“I am very excited to get things going again. I always love racing in Daytona. I have lived here the last seven years, so this is my hometown track now. I think the race is going to be just as interesting as it was last year, and I can’t wait to rock and roll at Daytona. We are getting this restrictor plate racing down pat, so we should run well this weekend. We tested really well here last month, so we should be able to put on a great show for the fans and for Toyota again this year.”
