Brett Bodine to drive for McClure at Pocono

ABINGTON, Va. -- Morgan-McClure Motorsports has announced that Brett Bodine as driver will drive the No. 4 Pontiac.

In addition to the Winston Cup event, Morgan-McClure will also enter the No. 4 ARCA car in the ARCA RE/MAX Series event. David Reutimann will drive in that race.

"The team is happy to have Brett Bodine drive the Kodak Pontiac at Pocono," team owner Larry McClure said. "Brett and I have known each other for a long time. He is one of the hardest working drivers in the Winston Cup garage.

"We are looking forward to going to Pocono with David in the ARCA car as well. We hope to build on last week's momentum."

"It will be my first race back since the accident (Michigan practice wreck breaking his right clavicle)," said Bodine. "The doctors did a great job on the shoulder surgery and rehabilitation has been good.

"It was way ahead of schedule and the doctor cleared me to race. I tested at Indy last week and the shoulder felt great. As a matter of fact, the right shoulder feels stronger than the left."

"Larry wanted an experienced driver to race at Pocono and I was very happy when he called me. Larry and I have known each other for a long time and we have a good relationship in the garage."
