Biffle on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:
“I’m definitely looking forward to Talladega because our restrictor-plate program has been on fire for the last two and a half years. It’s unbelievable how good our engines have been. I know it’s going to be a wild race and there is a lot on the line. It takes a lot of luck to win at Talladega, but I feel like we can do it this weekend. First thing you have to do is miss the big one, then have a good drafting partner and you need to be in the right place, at the right time, to win at Talladega.”
Crew chief Matt Puccia on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:
“Talladega is a typical superspeedway race where you’re going to have to survive the whole race to be there at the end. We are taking a brand new chassis this weekend and we’ve been strong at restrictor plate races so far this season. The Chase hasn’t gotten off to the start we would have liked, but hopefully we can pull off a win this weekend.”
