With another win at Auto Club Speedway, Greg Biffle (No. 27 Redman Moist Snuff Ford) would tie Matt Kenseth, his NASCAR Sprint Cup Series teammate with Roush Fenway Racing, for the most NASCAR Nationwide Series wins at the track. Kenseth leads all drivers with four wins; Biffle has three.
But Biffle, the 2002 series champion, this year has switched NASCAR Nationwide allegiances for 2010, driving a partial schedule for Baker Curb Racing. The team, formerly Brewco Motorsports, was home to Biffle for 27 races in 2005 (he finished 10th in the final standings with one win), and for select events throughout the 2006-07 seasons.
The organization is a two-car team with the addition of Scott Lagasse Jr. (No. 43 Baker Curb Racing Ford).
Biffle was stellar earlier in his series career at ACS, regardless of his team. In addition to three wins, he totaled five top fives — including a runner-up finish in the 2005 fall race for BCR — and seven top 10s. But those stats came in nine starts from 2001 to this race in 2007, when he finished fifth.
His last three races at ACS haven’t been vintage Biffle, with finishes of 32nd, 34th and 14th, respectively. He didn’t compete at ACS in series competition in 2003 and 2008.
His wins all have come for Jack Roush, who is the leader among series car owners at ACS, with six victories.
One of Biffle’s new co-owners, Mike Curb, the successful record label owner, songwriter and producer, was born in Georgia but raised in the San Fernando Valley. He also is known for his political service to his home state.
In November 1978, Curb, a Republican, was elected California’s lieutenant governor, serving with Governor Jerry Brown, a Democrat.
During the 1979-83 portion of his term, Curb was acting governor for nearly a year, helping guide the state through a tumultuous time that included floods, fires and a threatened prison guard strike.
Curb, who owned the car in which Richard Petty secured his record 200th and final NASCAR Sprint Cup victory, is a graduate of Cal State Northridge and also has served on the University of California Board of Regents, the California State University Board of Trustees and was chairman of the Economic Development Commission.
