Greg Biffle Biography & Busch Series Stats
 Over the past eight seasons, Greg Biffle has made a very strong name for himself in the NASCAR community. Biffle joined Roush Racing in 1998. He was crowned 1998 Cintas Rookie-of-the-Year in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series and won the series championship in 2000. In 2001, Biffle was named Raybestos Rookie-of-the-Year in the NASCAR Busch Series and followed that season up with the 2002 NASCAR Busch Series Championship. Biffle has been a full-time NEXTEL Cup force since 2003 and saw his best season yet in 2005 where he finished second in points to Tony Stewart, falling just short of his third NASCAR championship.
Looked at as a NEXTEL Cup star, Biffle continues to be a force in the NASCAR Busch Series. Biffle finished 10th in points in 2005 while driving for Brewco Motorsports despite only entering 27 of 35 events. In 2006, Biffle returns to Brewco Motorsports for a limited schedule.
