Biffle on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway:
“Bristol is high on my list and it’s one of my favorite tracks to go to. The important keys to getting around Bristol are qualifying well and getting a good pit box to keep your track position. Being the point leader we are still showing up with the same exact plan. What we always try to do is win, and I want to win at Bristol sine I’ve never won there. We know we are capable of running in the top five, we just have to figure out how to be there at the end.”
Crew chief Matt Puccia on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway:
“We are looking forward to going to Bristol this weekend and bettering our triple third-place finishes we’ve had so far this season. Bristol is the fastest half-mile track we go to on the circuit, and with the new progressive banking from when they reconfigured the track, it allows for a lot of side-by-side racing. We’re looking to finish a spot or two ahead of third this weekend.”
