[media-credit name=”ARCA Racing Network” align=”alignleft” width=”300″][/media-credit]DGM Racing announced that Fair Skinner will attempt to make his ARCA Racing Series debut at Daytona International Speedway next Saturday in the Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200.
“I’m very excited about the race,” Skinner says. “We have a very competitive car and the very best horsepower under the hood. I know that we have a realistic shot at winning this race and I’m looking forward to putting on a good show for all the sponsors. I have always dreamed of racing at Daytona since I was a little kid sitting in the stands, and now thanks to everyone that came on board I’m able to live that dream.”
Skinner made four NASCAR Nationwide Series starts last year – Lucas Oil Raceway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Dover International Speedway and Homestead-Miami Speedway. This will be Skinner’s first ever competitive race at Daytona.
Mario Gosselin is set to crew chief the effort with sponsorship from CarportEmpire.com.
Skinner joins the ever-growing entry list to the first event of the ARCA Racing Series season that includes past ARCA Champions and Daytona winners with some rookies mixed in as ARCA enters their 60th season.
