Biffle on Loudon:
“I can’t wait for Loudon this weekend. It’s a great track for us and we almost won in the fall. It would be great to get our first win of the season with NESN on the car this weekend.”
Puccia on Loudon:
“Loudon is a fast one-mile flat race track and a place we’ve traditionally run pretty decent at. We had a good run going in the fall of last year and look to continue that success this weekend. I always look forward to New Hampshire since it’s close to Boston, so that gives us lots of extra fans in the area, especially with NESN onboard.”
