GREG BIFFLE, No. 16 3M Ford Fusion – HOW DID YOU BALANCE THE FEELING OF NOT RUNNING HOW YOU WANTED AT RICHMOND WITH ULTIMATELY MAKING THE CHASE? “You know, last week there was a lot of emotion. We were as high as we could be on life going into that race. Well, keep in mind I was completely nervous about it but we had five great races, our five best races of the season all put together put us in that position to even be close to making it."
ARIC ALMIROLA, No. 43 Smithfield Ford Fusion – HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN ASKED IF YOU GUYS ARE REALLY GOING TO BE COMPETITIVE IN THE CHASE? YOU TIRED OF HEARING THAT? “A lot. You know I am not tired of it. We should be asked that question if we are going to be competitive or not in the Chase. The reality is that I think we finished 21st in points so that is a legitimate question, however, we have won a race and it got us in the Chase and the last two weeks finishing top-10 two weeks in a row has given us a lot of momentum. We show moments of brightness. We show on occasion that we are certainly capable of competing up front but just don’t do it all the time."
CARL EDWARDS, No. 99 Fastenal Ford Fusion – DID YOU HAVE TO BRUSH UP ON YOUR SPANISH GOING TO MEXICO CITY YESTERDAY? “Si senor. Buen dias mi amigos. That was really fun yesterday actually. I had a good time. The whole thing was an adventure. I requested to go to Mexico City because I had a blast there running the Nationwide races there a few years back and then for me I wanted to try to fly down there by myself and do all the logistics and everything. Cesna helped me a bunch and it was an adventure. Just to get in my plane and fly to Mexico City and to be able to actually get it done and everything was really fun for me.”
BRAD KESELOWSKI, NO. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion – JEFF GORDON SAID YESTERDAY THAT HE WOULD BE SATISFIED WITH NINE SECOND PLACE FINISHES GOING INTO HOMESTEAD BECAUSE HE THINKS HE CAN WIN WITH CONSISTENCY. DO YOU AGREE? “Well, you can win a lot of different ways with this format. I don’t think there is one way you can win or one way you can lose. That is definitely one of the ways you can win but not the only way.”
