With no major sponsors Bodine received sponsorship from minor sponsors such as Wells Fargo, Timberland Pro, and Dura Lube. Three races into the season Hooters was signed to a deal, although at this point Bodine's team was once again well behind in development. Crew chief Mike Hillman and several other team members had left due to worries about not being able to run the full season without primary sponsorship. Brett had four top 20 finishes, including a season's best 13th at Talladega, but failed to qualify for four late season races and finished 36th in the points. Brett also fielded an Xfinity series team in 9 races (qualifying for 7) for nephew Josh Richeson, with a best finish of 28th.
