Trucks: Post-Race Quotes - Biffle Wins from Pole at Milwaukee

Roush Racing's Greg Biffle won his third race of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series at Milwaukee. The Vancouver, Washington driver took the victory from the pole. Greg fell out of the lead when miscommunication between his crew and NASCAR put him back out on the track out of the top-five with 60 laps remaining in the race. He regained the lead with less than 20 laps to go. Four of the top-five finishers were driving F-150s.  They were Rick Crawford, who had stayed up front all day leading over a quarter of the laps, third; Mike Wallace, who came from almost a lap down to finish fourth; and Mike Bliss, who had run out of fuel just prior to his first pit stop, fifth.

Greg Biffle, #50 W.W. Grainger Racing Ford F-150: (finished first) "Every time we show up we've got awesome trucks. The Grainger F-150, I'll tell you it was Ford's day. Rick Crawford had a great run. We had a great run. I'll tell you, these Fords are going. I just want to thank Grainger and say hi to everyone back home that couldn't make this race. It was an awesome win."

THIS IS YOUR THIRD WIN THIS YEAR. WHAT HAS MADE THE DIFFERENCE?
"I think it is the trucks they are giving me, and the experience I'm gaining week-to-week. I came right out of late model stock car racing right into these trucks. Everybody wishes they could do that. It's a fairy tail story. These guys give me great equipment, and we are communicating good."

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING WHEN THE TRUCK FELL OFF THE JACK?
"I thought, oh well a little something happened there. It was just a mis-communication. Those things are going to happen. We're getting better every week. Randy Goss thought I over shot the pits because the inspector counting the guys. He (Goss) thought they were saying, move back, move back, so they let the jack down, pushed me back, jacked me up again, and then got the hose under the tire. It was just a tough stop for the guys, but I was able to make it up on the racetrack. They give me great trucks. I'll tell you these Ford trucks are just dominant."

DID YOU HAVE TO COMPOSE YOURSELF AND TELL YOURSELF THERE WAS STILL TIME TO GET TO THE FRONT WITH 63 LAPS TO GO?
"I didn't think there was time to catch them. It's been so tough to pass out here, and I'd get just a little aero tight behind the guys. We were so tight in the center of the corner, but my Ford was able to cut under them in the middle, and I'd get me a run off. That made all the difference in the world. I can't say enough. I think we've got a championship team. All we've got to do is finish in front of that 24 truck, and lead laps, get bonus points. The driver screwed up at the Glen last week. We should have been in front of him, should have led a lap. I went off in the sandpit. We had a little mishap on the pit stop, but we were able to make it up and bring the Grainger Ford to victory lane."
