All-Star 2015
After racing his way into the main event by winning the opening segment of the Sprint Showdown Friday night, Biffle qualified on the outside pole for the All-Star race with the help of a fast pit stop by his team. Handling on the No. 16 Ford proved to be a challenge during the race causing Biffle to brush the wall in the opening segment leaving an uphill battle for the team. Despite the damage, the team kept adjusting on their Ford and Biffle was able to finish 13th.
