From Geoff's Fan Club Online Geoff Announces Details for Daytona 500Geoff has announced he will attempt to qualify for the 51st running of the Daytona 500 in the #64 Toyota Camrys owned by Larry Gunselman Racing, headquartered in Mooresville, NC.Sprint Cup Veteran, Doug Reichert, will serve as Crew Chief and the motors will be supplied by Joey Arrington."Larry bought 3 race cars from Bill Davis Racing," said Geoff on February 3rd. "We currently have just 6 crew members working with us at the shop. These are experienced mechanics who come from successful, well-respected teams and have been laid off due to the recession. Our team represents the spirit of all working Americans who are caught in the economic down-turn and are out of work through no fault of their own.""We plan to field a first class team, with a professional appearance, and hope to attract a sponsor that will help us build a bigger, well-funded team, so we can do more," continued Geoff. "While we are waiting for a sponsor to come on board we will have Mona Vie, Geoff Bodine Waxing Frenzy and the USA Bobsled Project on the car.""I'm in the best shape I've been in years," said Geoff. "Mona Vie has helped me lose weight and I feel great! I'm a young, healthy 59 year old man who feels more like 49. I'm excited and ready to take on this new challenge!"Roberta HamborgGeoff Bodine Fan Club Web Site Manager
