On December 18, the RFK Racing museum unveiled a new tribute display dedicated to Greg Biffle, following the NASCAR driver‘s tragic passing in a plane crash at Statesville Regional Airport. This RFK Racing museum tribute highlights Biffle’s impact on the team and the racing world after his death alongside his family.
Biffle’s NASCAR Legacy Remembered
Greg Biffle, known as a dedicated family man and accomplished driver, began his NASCAR Cup Series career with Roush Racing in 2002.
