11 - Brett Bodine: A Stolen Victory?

Glorious White-Knuckled, God-Fearing, Spun-Out-And-Half-Turned-Over Racing Stories

The drama-filled 1990 Winston Cup season is arguably among the best, and most controversial seasons ever. After only six races, the series had enough drama to last an entire year.

Brett Bodine qualified 20th for the First Union 400 at North Wilkesboro Speedway, and was not on many people’s radar to contend, let alone win the thing. Following a cycle of green flag pit stops, Bodine found himself at the point of the field. After a lengthy caution, the scorers determined Bodine was the leader of the race. To that point, it had been Darrell Waltrip and Dale Earnhardt’s race to lose. Brett Bodine and former crew chief Larry McReynolds share their point of view from that controversial day, and provide their unapologetic commentary on Bodine’s first and only Cup Series victory.

Did NASCAR make the right call placing Bodine as the leader? Should he be deemed the true winner of the race? Race fans are still fussing about this one even to this day.
