Biography: Geoffrey Bodine
Geoffrey Bodine, also known as Geoff, is a successful American motorsport driver. Born in 1949, he is the oldest brother to Brett and Todd, who are also drivers. Bodine’s love for racing started very early on, learning to race in the micro-midget division at just five years old. Before his first start in the NASCAR division in 1979, he had already begun to solidify an extremely successful driving career. In the year before (1978), he had won more races than any other modified driver in history, including the Race of Champions, the Spring Sizzler, and the Budweiser 200. With 55 victories that period, he made it into the Guinness Book of World Records for the most wins in a single season.
Creating a successful start to his NASCAR Winston Cup career, in his first season in 1982 he earned the title for Rookie of the Year. His first victory during the series was in 1984 driving for Hendrick Motorsports. Though, conceivably his greatest win came during the 1986 Daytona 500 season opening race. He also won the 1987 International Race of Champions, the 1994 Winston Select, the 1994 Busch Pole Award, and the 1996 Bud at the Glen, beating Terry Labonte by less than a second. Bodine has driven for some of the best car owners, such as Junior Johnson and Bud Moore, during his 27-season career. In 2012, he announced his retirement from NASCAR, and he currently resides in West Melbourne, Florida with his family.
I am proud to bring you this site, after many years of wondering who won the Daytona 500 in a certain year or how many times did Richard Petty win? I thought I couldn’t possibly be the only one that has a need for a site like this. So I made it.
