Biffle on Sonoma:
“Sonoma is a unique race track with the elevation changes, turns; all those things make it a fun place to race. The keys to Sonoma are staying on the race track, gas mileage, taking care of the brakes and transmission. If you can do all those things then you can come out of there with a good run and possibly a win, I’m looking forward to it.”
Puccia on Sonoma:
“Road course racing has always been a strong suit for the No. 16 team. We ran in the top five in both races last year and had top-10 finishes at each. Sonoma is a good opportunity to take a break from ovals and see where we are with our road course program.”
