GREG BIFFLE – No. 16 3M/Post-it Ford Fusion – “This is the way it’s gone all season. We’re just searching for speed and struggled all day today. We’ve worked hard trying to fix our problems, but it just hasn’t come together yet. It’s frustrating because part of you wants to just pull it and put it in the garage and the other half is racing as hard as you can to get in the Chase. It’s pretty frustrating. I’ve won races my whole career, but to be struggling like this all year is disappointing at best.”

Starting Position: 2nd - How confident are you starting second in Sunday's race?"I'm pretty confident with it. I think we had a good car here in the spring -- we just kind of lost the handle on it a little bit there early in the race. But, the way the track rubbered in throughout the first run and then especially the second run of the race -- we just weren't ready for what happened."
