Biffle on Indy:
“Just driving through the tunnel at Indy is incredible because you don’t really understand how big the place is until you see it in person. Indy is a fast, flat racetrack and it’s very important to be able to get into the corners well there. Having the Ford power under the hood will help us get down the straightaways which is also crucial for a fast lap at Indy. We’ve run well there in the past and even had a shot at winning it last year. I have high expectations for this weekend.”
Puccia on Indy:
“Indy is obviously the fastest flat track that we go to and handling in the turns will be very important. Track position is huge so we’ll need a good qualifying effort but it is an impound race so that will affect our strategy as well. If we can start up front and stay in the clean air, I think we’ll have a good day. We’d all like to get the American Red Cross car to victory lane this week and help them bring awareness to the need for blood donations throughout the summertime.”
Indianapolis Notes
A single car accident victim can require as many as 100 pints of blood but one blood donation can also help save the lives of up to three people.
Visit www.redcrossblood.orgto learn more or make an appointment to donate today.
Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood and more than 38,000 blood donations are needed every day.
Go to to learn about Brian Boyle and his inspiring story about how American Red Cross blood donors helped save his life.
Type O negative blood is always in high demand because it can be transfused to patients with any blood type, especially in emergency situations.
The No. 16 Ford will have a special American Red Cross Type O “Give Blood” paint scheme this weekend to remind race fans to donate blood throughout the summer months when donations tend to drop.
