News and Notes
Nov 4
This week: Biffle won at Texas in April 2005 when he led a whopping 219 laps. That is one of his three top-five and four top-10 finishes there. He was fifth last November and third in April. Those two top-five finishes ended a dismal two-race Texas streak in which he finished 33rd in November 2007 and 39th in April 2008. "We're looking forward to next year," Biffle said, realizing he isn't going to win the Cup championship. "We're trying to get the highest position in points we can this year, but we're looking forward to picking some wins up. We think we can still win this year. We've got three or four more chances, so we'll get by those and see what we can do, but we're excited about next year. It's a little bit of everything."
Last week: Biffle avoided the crashes and finished a fortunate fourth at Talladega. He never led a lap. "It all depends on where you're at and where you're running," Biffle said. "We got our track position at the end and we knew they were all going to wreck, so we just played it smart and got through that stuff. I'm excited for Jamie McMurray. Those guys ran good. Our restrictor-plate program has been getting better and better. We had a good car, but we just lost our track position there that one time and we were fighting to get it back, but it was a good run."
Etc.: Biffle believes there will be some improvements in his team next season. "Our new engine will help us a little bit, figuring out our chassis better will help us and getting to some places to do some testing will help us," he said. "We'll be a little bit more outside the box when it comes next year as far as trying stuff early in the season."
