Biffle on Michigan:
“I don’t know what it is about Michigan, but it’s one of my favorite tracks to go to and is a great track for Roush. I’m undefeated in the Truck series, two races, two wins and four wins in the Cup series. It’s just one of those race tracks that I love the way it’s laid out. I love the speed of it. Multiple lanes, we can run two, three lanes wide at a downforce race track and get clean air on the front of the car so you can make passes. It’s always a strategy race and those are the things I love about Michigan and I can’t wait to race there this weekend.”
Puccia on Michigan:
“I’m looking forward to going to Michigan this weekend. It’s always great to go back to Ford’s backyard and always special to run good there because it’s Jack’s backyard. We’ve been working really hard on our cars and are heading in the right direction. Michigan is the perfect track to try and get us our first win of the season.”
