Biffle on racing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway:
“Indy is a fast, flat racetrack and it’s very important to be able to get into the corners well there. Having the Ford power under the hood will help us get down the straightaways which is also crucial for a fast lap at Indy. We’ve run well there in the past and I have high expectations for this weekend.”
Crew chief Matt Puccia on racing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway:
“Indy is a special track and everyone wants to run well there. Traditionally this team has run well at Indy and we hope to continue. It’s a unique track where fuel mileage and track position are a big factor. It’s a little more difficult to pass, so qualifying up front is important, as well as having a car good enough to stay up front. We’ve been working on our flat track and intermediate track programs so I’m ready to get to Indy this weekend.”
