Earlier this Season at Texas
Greg Biffle drove his No. 16 Ford Fusion to a 17th- place finish under the lights at Texas Motor Speedway. Biffle started 19th and searched for grip over the 334-lap race. In his search, Biffle went a lap down to the field twice but was the “lucky dog” recipient towards the end of the race and went on from there to finish 17th.

Biffle on Texas:
“I really enjoy racing at Texas. It’s been a good track for me in the past and I feel like we’ve made some positive changes with our cars. Texas will be a good place to take what we’ve learned so far this season and see what we’ve got.”
Puccia on Texas:
“Texas is one of my favorite tracks that we go to on the circuit and we got our first win there a few years back. I’ve always liked going there, even when we raced the trucks and XFINITY cars. Texas is one of those tracks where track position is really important and qualifying will be important on Friday. The track surface is starting to get worn out and showing its age. Tires are a big deal and managing your tires early in a run to have good tires late in the run is going to be key.”
