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.
