June 4, 1999 - It's An All-Ford Front Row at Bristol


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.

My boss (Jack Roush) is going to be here tomorrow so I'd better step the program up!"

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."
