Biffle on racing at Auto Club Speedway:
“Bristol didn’t turn out quite the way we planned it, but we do feel better about our finish since we found something wrong with the car after the race. The right-front bump stop failed, so it was down on the splitter for the last 17-lap run. We wondered why we weren’t going forward, we were going backward and unfortunately finished 13th, but kept the point lead. More importantly, we are looking forward to California. We’ve got the best car to ever come out of the Roush Fenway shop. Our California car has the best downforce numbers, it’s the lightest, badest, newest thing the guys can build. It’s a good track for me, I like California Speedway, and so we are looking forward to seeing what we can do.”
Crew chief Matt Puccia on racing at Auto Club Speedway:
“California is a big, wide, race track and track position is really important. The track allows for a lot of different lines to run. You can run the top or the bottom, there’s plenty of racing room, but track position is critical. It’s a hard track to pass at, so qualifying will be really important. This is the first two-mile race track this season and we tend to run well at 1.5-mile and two-mile tracks. We are looking to get a good finish with our 3M Ford and to further our point lead.”
