[/media-credit]Greg Biffle confronted Boris Said in the pits after the race at Watkins Glen on Monday. Biffle gave him some quick punches while Said was still in the car.
“He wouldn’t even let me get out of the car. He comes over and throws a few little baby punches and then when I get out, he runs away and hides behind some big guys.” Said said.
According to Said, Biffle was already at least a lap down and Biffle was racing him dirty. Said relayed a message to Biffle’s spotter that he wanted to meet him after the race.
“I won’t settle it on the track but he’ll show up at a race with a black eye one of these days.” Said added. “[Biffle] is a chump”
“I think Biffle has had a problem with Boris from a previous race, so leading into this race they already had some aggression toward each other. Early in the race, Biffle had run out of gas and was multiple laps down and was racing Boris.” said Nick Harrison, crew chief for Said.
There is way too much nascar on TV, even more pre and post race drivel from the clowns on SPEED.
I would support Said if it wasn’t for the fact that Biffle was absolutely right. Said has caused some major wrecks and is costing teams money in torn up equipment each time he races. That’s probably why you don’t see anyone letting Said come near race tracks like Michigan or Pocono any more. Whatever skills this “road course ringer” had, has long-since passed and he needs to be sent to spotter’s row or start-and-park village. Nascar might save someone’s life by pulling his license.
First things first, I am not a fan of Said. But was a fan of Biffle.
But when I saw Biffle not only go behind his pit crew but actually had them close ranks around him BEFORE he ran his mouth at Said, I have totally lost respect for him.
I don’t advocate violence, but if your going to run your mouth don’t hide behind people. Biffle now joins Harvick in my punks of the track list. Both are brave when they have their pit crews backing them up.
Biffle is a braces-wearing pansy. He’s ready to fight when Boris is strapped in the car, but then runs away like a baby.
