    What's your favorite Geoffrey Bodine moment?

      Talking to him in my hometown of Kingman, Arizona, while the Kyle Petty Charity Ride ate lunch in 2000. He could not have been any nicer.

      Him winning '86 Daytona 500. I was rooting for Dale but Geoff's car was just so strong that day and no one could touch it.

      Mine will always the crazy finish with Richie Evans in the modified’s at Martinsville! For those who don’t know about it, they came out of turn 4 headed for the checkers and wound up crashing just before the finish line! Evans won, but he took the checkered flag with the car on its side and, as I remember, backwards! I’m not a big cup fan, but just his years in the modified’s were legendary! And he was known to run dirt modified’s from time to time, like the big fall race on the Syracuse, NY mile. If you’ve never seen the Valiant bodied mod that he raced in the early 70’s, you’re missing out! He was a heck of a competitor!

    He won 55 out of 84 Modified races in a single year in 1978, racing against drivers like Richie Evans and Jerry Cook.

    I grew up watching Geoff race at Stafford Springs. He and Bugsy Stevens were my favorites. I’m now 66 and delighted to see him get the attention he deserves. => NASCAR HOF listen up!

    One of the greatest racers of all time. Became a fan years ago at Oswego Speedway NY where he drove a modified. The man was fearless and always going for it. He should be in the Hall of Fame, not just for his stats, but for all the safety innovations he came up with. In the feud with Earnhardt, I'd take Geoff any day. He'd drive you hard, not dirty.

    Geoffrey was able to redeem himself to some degree at Daytona after his accident by finishing 3rd & 10th respectively in the Daytona 500 & Pepsi 400 driving for James Finch in 2002.

    Very cool to see Bodine get his due credit in the modern era. Not to nitpick, but his last career win came at Watkins Glen as stated in the video, but it was in 1996, not 1995. Thanks for posting these videos. Between this, Scene Vault Podcast, and Dale Jr Download, the guys that built the sport are getting deserved credit for what they did over the years. Nice video Mr. Pockrass.

    I'll never forget that truck race at Daytona 2000 that was a near fatal crash. I've watched replays of it, and wondered how he survived that horrible wreck that could've been a whole lot worse.

    4:37 - So, the Carousel at Watkins Glen suddenly transferred to Sonoma, eh?
    Also, not gonna mention that he lapped the field in that North Wilkesboro victory in 1994? Or that he won The Winston that same year, too?

    I remember seeing Geoff Bodine at Thompson in CT finishing three laps ahead of the field. He was so cocky driving down the backstretch with his elbow out the window (That was before window nets). He was a legend in the Northeast.

    Good video, but Bodine’s last win was in 1996 at Watkins Glen, not 1995. Other than that little correction, all I have to say is Geoffrey Bodine is a great driver, and he needs to be in the Hall of Fame!
