Greg Biffle on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:
“I’d hate to say that I don’t like racing at Talladega because I do but the superspeedway races are always a gamble. When you’re running in a pack like that at the speeds we run, it really doesn’t matter if you have the best car out there or the most talented driver in it. You just have to be able to keep up and stay out of the wrecks when they happen. We haven’t had the best year so far but I think we’ve got something we can build on, so a good finish this weekend would just add to that confidence and keep us going in the right direction.

“We’re running the American Red Cross paint scheme for the first time this weekend at Talladega. This is part of our partnership with 3M and a program that I personally think is very important. I am a blood donor myself and if we can bring some attention to the need for blood donations across the country through their NASCAR program, then this weekend will be a success. If we can put the Red Cross Ford up front, then all the better.”

Crew Chief Greg Erwin on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:
“We are taking a brand new car to Talladega this weekend. All of our cup teams got together after Daytona to work on ideas for improvement to our superspeedway cars and those ideas were implemented in this new car. The Roush Yates Engine shop has also done a lot of work to try to improve our superspeedway engine program and I am completely confident that what we’re taking to Talladega is the best of what they have. We’d be happy if we can have a run in Talladega like we did in Daytona. Our plan is to get up front as soon as possible, stay there and hopefully the wreck will happen behind us. Finishing this race is the key. Biffle hasn’t finished the last four races there and I know he’d like to take the checkered flag this weekend.”
