Biffle on racing at Infineon Raceway:
“I like road course racing. It breaks up the season a little. Last year we had a decent finish at Infineon and I think it’s reasonable to shoot for a top-10 finish this weekend. There are some drivers in this series who have a lot of road course experience and if I can just hold my own with them and get out of there with a top-10 or top-five finish, I think that would be a reasonable expectation.”
Crew Chief Doug Richert on racing at Infineon Raceway:
“We’re taking the same car we raced last year at Infineon but the body has been completely rebuilt with the new 2006 style. We tested this car at Road Atlanta a few weeks ago and found a few things that we can do to improve upon what we ran last year set-up wise. We’re trying a few different things but our goal is to come out of there with no problems and a solid top-10 or top-five finish. If we can do that, I’ll be happy.”
