Texas is an exciting track and I have always run well there, said Bodine. I have won two out of the three races I have run in my NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series career at Texas. I am looking forward to running at Texas again and hope to get my third NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series career win there as well. It would be awesome to make the sweep as I have never won the spring race at Texas. Bodine finished last weeks AAA Insurance 200 at Dover in third place, giving him a 76 point lead over his teammate, Ted Musgrave who is second in the NASCAR Carftsman Truck Series driver championship points. Bodine and Musgrave will be one of the favorites to win this Friday nights Sams Town 400 at Texas Motor Speedway. In just three starts at Texas Motor Speedway Bodine has completed 411 of 460 laps (89.3%), with 94 laps led along with two wins.
