FORD RACING NOTES AND QUOTES


Greg Biffle, driver of the No. 16 3M Ford Fusion, opened the season with a 10th-place finish in the Daytona 500. He has enjoyed quite a bit of success at California Speedway over the years, winning in the Sprint Cup Series (2005) and the Nationwide Series (?06 and ?04 twice), and scoring three top-10 finishes in three starts in the Craftsman Truck Series.

GREG BIFFLE ? No. 16 3M Ford Fusion ? DO YOU BELIEVE IN MOMENTUM? AND, IF SO, WHAT DOES A TOP-10 LAST WEEK AT DAYTONA MEAN THIS WEEK AT CALIFORNIA? ?Yes, 100 percent. Absolutely. You?ll see a guy get a pole or have a good run and then it plays over to the next week and weeks to come. But, definitely our run last week was what we needed. I?ve re-played that race over 100 times in my head and I?m glad I?ve finally forgotten about it now, because I feel like we could?ve won that 500. I was in position to win the 500, in position to get a top-five, which would?ve been better than a top-10. But, I?ve accepted the fact we got 10th and it was a great finish and to come here top-10 in points, at a race track where we run good at and go next week to a track we run good and so on. So, I?m pretty happy, you know? And I think the momentum is on our side, definitely. You look at last year, COT only, or the new car, second, second, 12th, so those are good stats for us.?
