Biffle on Bristol:
“I’m really looking forward to Bristol this weekend. We run hard at Bristol, which is always fun and exciting. We always have good runs at that race track. You race right up against the fence, as fast as you can go. Track position is key, you’ve got to be up front and stay out front. It’s going to take being out front, good pit stops and a good pit stall selection to win at Bristol this weekend.”
Puccia on Bristol:
“Bristol is the fastest half-mile track on the circuit and has been good to us in the past. There is a lot of grip at Bristol and at times the bottom grove can offer side-by-side racing, but most of the time you’ll see the cars up top. Track position is very important so we will focus on getting our Ford to handle on the top groove.”
