Biffle on racing at Dover International Speedway:
“We had a good run at Dover in June, so I’m looking forward to getting back there this weekend. We’re taking a new car just to try to learn as much as we can about the COT. I’d really like to continue the streak of top-10 finishes I have at Dover. The win there in 2005 was a special one because we had some soldiers with us that day from Walter Reed and it would be incredible to get the Wii Ford Fusion into victory lane. We’re learning about the COT’s more and more every week, so hopefully we’ll be able to be competitive with them as the season ends and into next year.”
Crew Chief Greg Erwin on racing at Dover International Speedway:
“We’re taking a brand new car to Dover this weekend. We took it to the Talladega test just to kind of shake it down and do an aero test. We learned several things at the test as well as at the last few COT races, so I’m hoping we can apply them this weekend. The June Dover race was my first race with the team and we were able to get a top-10 finish that day. I’d like to shoot for a top-five finish this Sunday. We’ll need to focus on being good on the long runs and emphasize tire management. Qualifying will be important for pit selection because the pits are so tight there and an opening would help.”
