NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon left his mark on Phoenix International Raceway – literally – when he tore up the first chunks of asphalt at the start/finish line in April, 2011 to kick off PIR’s repaving project.

Greg Biffle drove his No. 16 Cheez-It Ford Fusion to a 14th-place finish Sunday afternoon at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Biffle started 16th and searched for front turn most of the race, but continuously logged solid lap times, even held off a hard charging race leader to finish on the lead lap. The 14th-place finish moves Biffle up to 11th in the point standings.
Determined pit work and steady driving by Ryan Blaney put the Motorcraft/Quick Lane Ford Fusion into the top 20 for the first time in the young 2015 season with a 19th-place finish in the Kobalt 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

DALE EARNHARDT, JR. NO. 88 NATIONWIDE CHEVROLET SS - FINISHED 4TH: WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR CAR? "I got really loose. I had a real bad vibration on that last run and I was really, really loose. We've been running the track bar pretty much even the whole race, and at the end there I had it down three inches on right side trying to save my butt. Maybe it was worn-out lefts, I don't know. The left side (tires) is new and a little softer compound maybe we just took it a little bit too far."
JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Pennzoil Platinum Ford Fusion (Finished 10th) – “That was a poorly executed race on my behalf. I didn’t do a good job. I did a good job of screwing up anytime I could. The speeding on pit road – I found that. I put us in a hole. Not that we were going to win the race either way because we weren’t fast enough but I maybe cost us two or three positions with what I did. I don’t know. We have some work to do. I have work to do with myself first and then we have work to do with the car too.”
