EPISODE 110 -- BRETT BODINE PART 1

Published: Sept. 16, 2020, 4 p.m.

b'In the first of what will be a three-part interview, Brett Bodine discusses his phenomenal 1985 Busch Series rookie season, during which he won three races in just 13 starts. Then, in his first full-time campaign the following year, Bodine finished achingly close to the championship in one of the most bizarre seasons anyone could remember. After that, he moved to the Winston Cup circuit with veteran team owner Bud Moore. In our second segment, hosts Rick Houston and Steve Waid dig into the April 11, 1985 issue of Grand National Scene, which featured coverage of Dale Earnhardt\'s Bristol win, which came despite the fact he lost power steering just 100 laps into the event. That race also saw short-track carnage galore, while other notable stories concerned Bodine\'s inaugural Busch Series win at Martinsville, Petty Enterprises truck driver Horst Fisher, Dave Marcis\' new shop and memories of Bill Elliott pushing his car across the finish line at Darlington to score a third-place finish.
