AJ Allmendinger, originally expected back in the seat of the No. 84 Red Bull Racing Toyota April 12 at Phoenix, said Friday he will not return until the following week at Talladega.
   
Mike Skinner made his first appearance in the No. 84 at Las Vegas and has a best finish of 27th (at Atlanta) in four starts entering Texas. The veteran and former Craftsman Truck Series champion has mentored Allmendinger, who is in his second Cup season.
   
“He’s said the same things that I’ve been saying, so just more than anything there’s a peace of mind of getting back in the car and [saying], ‘OK, so I’m not crazy. I am feeling the right things,” Allmendinger said.
   
Allmendinger has tested for the team at New Smyrna (Fla.) Speedway and Nashville Superspeedway during his hiatus from competition.
   
"I’ve learned a lot outside the race car, I think it’s gonna give me a better perspective when I get back in it,” he said.
