Biffle on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:
“Well, we obviously really need to finish this race. If we can stay out of trouble and get out of there with a top-10 finish, I’ll be happy. This race takes a lot of concentration by the driver and a lot of give and take on the racetrack. A lot of people ask me about luck not being on our side so far this year. I’ve always thought that you make your own luck but I guess if there were a race that I’d like to have luck on my side, Talladega would be a good one.”
Crew Chief Doug Richert on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:
“We’re taking a brand new racecar this weekend. We had it built based on some of the stuff we learned at the Daytona test and we hope it is at least as good as if not better than the car we took there last year. We need to situate ourselves to stay out of trouble and finish the race. We need to gain as man points as possible.”
