GREG BIFFLE
Team: No. 16 3M Ford Fusion
Owner: Jack Roush
Crew Chief: Eddie Pardue
Chassis: RK-368 – Todd Kluever raced this car at Daytona in February
Biffle on racing in Talladega:
“I like racing at Talladega, but it’s always a crap shoot. I don’t have a great record there, but I’ve actually had more success in the Busch car than I’ve had in Cup. I have two top-10 finishes in the Busch Series at Talladega, but I don’t even have one in Cup. It’s a tough race because you have to be patient, but also know when to get aggressive. You’re just waiting for the big wreck and hoping you don’t get caught up in it. The key to finishing well at Talladega is to be there at the end.”
Eddie Pardue on racing in Talladega:
“Talladega can be a tough race for the crew since you feel sort of helpless. There is only so much we can do to help Greg in the race. We need good pit stops to help him keep, or gain track position, and help him with handling. Probably the most important crew member at a place like Talladega is the spotter. He is the one Greg will rely on more than anyone else to get through this race.”
