It's An All-Ford Front Row at
Bristol
Greg Biffle, #50 Grainger Ford F-150 : (Qualified on the
pole)"I'll tell you, it was hang on for dear life the whole lap! We
were pretty free the whole day today. But we got some good
information from the #99 team (teammate Mike Bliss) that helped us
out a lot. I have to give them a lot of credit and thank their crew
chief Matt Chambers for helping us out. You could see that they
were quickest on the board by about two-tenths after practice. We
took some of their information and put in onto our truck and it
worked. That's what great about having two teams."
QUOTES FROM POST-QUALIFYING PRESS CONFERENCE:
"I did everything that I could to not hit the wall out there. We
were too free and had been (free) during our qualifying runs earlier
in practice. I really need to thank the #99 team. We put all the
information from them into our truck and I just went out there and
peddled it for a lap and got the pole. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE
RACE TOMORROW? "I feel really good. I like to run here at Bristol.
It's a lot of fun. The Grainger team has done a great job all year.
We've run up front a lot. I'm glad that we'll be starting on the
front row tomorrow. My boss (Jack Roush) is going to be here
tomorrow so I'd better step the program up!" WAS THE DIFFERENCE
FROM YOUR PRACTICE TIME TO YOUR QUALIFYING TIME A RESULT OF THE
INFORMATION THE #99 TEAM GAVE YOU? "Yeah it was. We made some
pretty dramatic changes. We would have never changed that much
from one qualifying run to another without having the information
to back it up. That's what it's like when you have two teams in
this series. We can't always trade information. But at times like
that when you're desperate, it helps a ton."
