Check out the winners’ list at Kentucky Speedway the past few years in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series:

2009: Ron Hornaday Jr., four-time series champion.
2008: Johnny Benson, 2008 series champion.
2007: Mike Skinner, 1995 series-champion
2006: Hornaday.
2004: Bobby Hamilton, 2004 series champion
2002: Mike Bliss, 2002 series champion
2000: Greg Biffle, 2000 series champion

Of the 10 total series races at Kentucky, seven were won by past, reigning or future champions. Only in 2001 (Scott Riggs), 2003 (Carl Edwards) and 2005 (Dennis Setzer) were the winners not also a champion.
Why is this potentially a huge story? There’s a marquee name absent from that list: points leader Todd Bodine, the 2006 series champion.

What makes the statistic especially strange: Bodine usually excels at 1.5-mile tracks like Kentucky (see: wins at Texas, Kansas, Las Vegas, Homestead and Atlanta).

Yet, success has eluded Bodine at Kentucky. In five races there, he has an average finish of 13.2 and a Driver Rating of 92.2. Neither numbers are terrible, but they were deflated in part because of a runner-up finish in 2005.

Since then, Bodine has struggled. Over the last three races, he has finished 11th, 27th and 16th, respectively.

But he need only look at last year’s race for some optimism. Despite a finish outside the top 10, Bodine led 45 laps, had a Driver Rating of 114.8 and an Average Running Position of 3.9.
