Biffle on the All-Star race:
“I’m looking forward to the All-Star race this Saturday night. We’ve struggled some this year, so it will be nice to have a non-points race and try to learn some things for the Coke 600 next weekend. Charlotte has been good to us in the past and a win would help gain momentum going into this summer stretch.”
Puccia on the All-Star race:
“The All-Star is a fun non-points race where you can let it all hang out and take some chances, but you can also learn some things to apply to the Coke 600. Charlotte has typically been a good race track for us, hopefully we can capitalize on that and build a little momentum for the second part of the season.”
