Greg Biffle Car Quotations

I was real nervous about coming down here, this is not our strong suit for sure. The car is driving really good, the car feels fast. I just have a good feeling about this race car, so I'm much happier now.

He (Roush) has a huge advantage. He's got a 50 percent chance, I think. All of the teams are running good. But the (No.) 20 car (Stewart) is better than all of us. We'll see.

He's a tough customer. He runs really well. He's a smart race car driver. He thinks. He executes. They're going to be very hard to beat.

We hadn't been that good. I hadn't been real comfortable in the car and we didn't leave ourselves enough time to switch to qualifying trim and just was kind of disorganized and didn't get a good fast lap in (during practice).

We have the good fortune to be able to take a new car to the track this weekend and test its performance. Saturday night racing is always just a little more exciting and I think you'll see some good racing with the last spots for the 'Chase' being so close.

The 9 car is the fastest car here. If something doesn't happen to his car or he blows the right-front tire and hits the fence, then he might be the car to beat.

Well, it's really important. We wanted to win here tonight, but Kyle got a great restart there. Congratulations to Kyle Busch and that whole Hendrick team. Those guys have been coming on a win for a long time and it's exciting for your first win. It was just a great job by the guys in the pits. We put spring rubbers in and adjusted the heck out of that race car tonight - from tight to loose to just can't drive it. Our thoughts and prayers are with everybody in the gulf coast and all the National Guard folks down there helping everybody. I know there were a lot of soldiers called to duty to go down there and we're just thinking about all of them.

We're in a race car three days a week which also keeps us in shape. You know, that's like working out... .

Don't get me wrong, ... I was going to pass him if I could. But you have a lot of time to think around here and I was just picturing him buckled down in that race car giving it all he's got, just thinking about him winning. I'm probably as happy as he is that he won today.

That's not too bad considering what happened to us today, ... We just did what we could and that was all we could do. It was a tough day, but we kind of came back from it and finished 13th. The car wasn't as good as it was in the spring, but it was pretty decent. We just couldn't quite get it done.

This track has got a ton of grip right now. It is really, really fast. My car was just really solid. It was a really good lap. I didn't want to try for a second one because you're always taking a chance qualifying here because you are always right on the edge.

I've got a car that's as good as my teammates are and they're out there running out front, but I just wasn't in the right position. I was just kind of taking it easy there and the motor gave up. It had been vibrating for a little while. We've got a chronic vibration issue. I don't know, sometimes it makes a difference and sometimes it doesn't, but obviously today it did.

I'm pretty optimistic. We've got a really, really good car and know the race track fairly well. We know what we need to do to win.

If you give him the right car and the car is balanced properly, it's got the right aero numbers and all that, and then he's got to drive it, that makes it much easier to bring a guy in and be competitive right off. I'm excited that we're able to do that as a company, to be able to provide Carl with such a great opportunity. And he's taken advantage of it.

That got me up in the fence, and then my car wouldn't go. That knocked the toe out of it, but I guess it's a good thing it happened then and not in the middle of the race.

It's definitely had an effect today. I mean, we're making changes on the car and we go back out and make another run and it's slower. So it's like it should have been faster, but it's slower, so it's really hard right now.

The Fusion, I think, is going to be a lot better car for us. (But) we're still just in the preliminary aspects of figuring it out and we had pretty much optimized the Taurus.

They are so much fun to drive and I think it's extra experience behind the wheel. It kind of gives you a warm-up for the weekend. For me, it's no pressure - it's kind of a relief to get in the Busch car and run a race. It gets you relaxed for the next day.

It was clear that we had a winning car. When all you have to do is lift on the gas pedal and elect not to run into the car in front of you on the straightaway, that's pretty unforgivable. You've got to have a little bit of respect for the other drivers you're racing with, and Kurt hasn't shown respect.

It wasn't the car I was thinking I was going to have. But the guys did a great job in the pits, and I kept it off the wall and didn't get any flat tires. We just did everything we needed to do, really. ... We wanted a top-five (finish), so we can't really complain.

We got ourselves into a little bit of a hole in Daytona but I have no doubt that this team will turn it around this weekend. We're taking a car that's already been to victory lane and we think it's going to perform even better this season. Here it's a whole different skill level and handling package and stuff. It takes probably a different skill set or different category of skills at Daytona -- where you position your car or how the air is and how fast your car is, so it's just a lot different.

There's a noticeable difference between the Fusion and the Taurus. The Fusion, I think, is going to be a lot better car for us.

I could've pushed him out of the way, but that's not the way I want to get wins. He was protecting the bottom. His car was really slow. We were way faster than he was, and it's just tough. This place is hard to pass. Protecting the bottom - that's what you've got to do here in Bristol.

His car was similar to mine when he won Atlanta versus me finishing third, and it was just who was in front. It was merely track position at the end of the race, so he's got the ability to drive the race cars.

All of the teams are running good. But the 20 car is still better than all of us.

Then you have to answer to your car owner, you have to answer to the sponsor, you have to answer to all these folks why you're not racing. But that's the only way it will ever stop.

The race car is harder to drive. If there was an in-car camera that could have watched me saw on that wheel for 500 laps, there wasn't one time I could relax.
