Greg Biffle on racing at Chicagoland Speedway:
“I’m looking forward to both races this weekend. The cars we’re using have run extremely well and I don’t see why that would be any different this weekend. Chicagoland is very fast and relatively flat, which makes it challenging. It requires a lot of throttle and brake control and those types of tracks are the most fun for a driver.”
Crew Chief Doug Richert on racing at Chicagoland Speedway:
" We're taking the same car from California where Greg led for about 30 laps. It's also the car we took to the All-Star race and have repaired back to its original condition. Chicago is a little like Las Vegas in that it is similar in size and has pretty flat corners. You have to have a good balance between your setup and your aero in order to run well there. I've never been there with a Cup car but I think our notes from Las Vegas should get us close to where we'll need to be to race."
