Biffle and Brewco Post 15th Top-Five Finish of Season

 

AVONDALE, AZ (November 12) - Having started 20^th and spinning on lap thirty en route to a win earlier this year at Phoenix International Raceway, Greg Biffle knows the path to victory lane does not come easy at the 1.0-mile tri-oval.  Despite his best efforts, a repeat performance was not meant to be as, Biffle, driver of the #66 Duraflame Ford, started 7^th and finished 5^th in this weekend's Phoenix 200.  Biffle, who was making his 26^th start of the season for Kentucky based Brewco Motorsports, moved from 11^th to 10^th in NASCAR Busch Series drivers' standings.  Team Brewco #66 remains 5^th in NBS Owners' standings.

 

"It was a really tough day for me.  I didn't quite get the setup right in practice and the car was really, really tight getting into the corner.  I couldn't do anything getting in, so I had to free it up.  It was so loose that I couldn't really get the gas down, but it was just one of those days.  I didn't have it exactly how I wanted it, but a top-five with the pit crew, they gave me an awesome stop there at the end for track position," Biffle added after posting his 15^th top-five finish of the season.

 

Crew chief Newt Moore added, "You know, we had the car where we wanted it during practice and had a pretty good showing in qualifying, but for one reason or another we were super-tight at the start of the race.  We made some pretty major adjustments, and might have gone a little too far.  I know it wasn't very much fun for Greg out there. He definitely had his hands full today.  He did an awesome job holding onto that car, and with some good pit stops we were able to salvage a top-five.  All-in-all, not a bad day."

 

Next up, Team Brewco heads to Homestead-Miami Speedway for the Ford 300 on Saturday, November 19^th.  NBC and MRN will provide live coverage of the event beginning at 4:00pm EDT.
