Time Change – Geoff Bodine Bobsled Challenge Event Coverage

SPEED TV has revised the show times for the four hours of coverage it’s devoting to the fourth annual Whelen Geoff Bodine Bobsled Challenge. The first race will begin airing at noon, Jan. 18, with the second show starting at 4 p.m., Jan. 25.

Catch Jeg Coughlin Jr.’s dominating opening day, Morgan Lucas’ win in the NASCAR versus NHRA portion of the program, J.R. Todd’s race day surge, and Bob Vandergriff Jr.’s painful-looking wreck that had the Top Fuel veteran sliding more than half a mile down the course on his head.

The four NHRA professionals attended the event to help NASCAR veteran Bodine raise money for the Bo-Dyn Bobsled Project, which designs and makes bobsleds exclusively for Team USA. Prior to Bodine’s involvement, U.S. bobsledders were afterthoughts on the world stage, racing the castoff bobsleds from their European counterparts. Now they routinely win medals at the highest level of the sport, including the Olympic Games and World Bobsled Championships.
