Biffle on racing at Atlanta Motor Speedway:
“Atlanta is a fun race track. It’s a 1.5-mile track, but it’s different than a lot of the 1.5-mile tracks we go to. It still has old pavement, when it seems like everywhere we go has new pavement. It’s that old Atlanta where you have issues with tires not having enough grip and I like it. You can run the high line, middle line and low line. We’ve been pretty successful at Atlanta, but we haven’t won there. We’ve been pretty close and I think this weekend could be the turning point.
Crew chief Matt Puccia on racing at Atlanta Motor Speedway:
“Atlanta is a unique 1.5-mile track, the surface has aged enough that it creates sliding around and tires are worth a lot there. Managing tires the whole race is a big deal. Lots of different pit scenarios tend to play out and most of the time tires will win the race. It’s great to be locked into the Chase, so now we are looking to win a race to get valuable bonus points for the Chase.”
