#16-Greg Biffle says he’s not sure why he got into #48-Jimmie Johnson, causing the six-time champion to crash in Sunday’s race at Kansas Speedway. Biffle made contact with Johnson on Lap 85. Johnson lost 68 laps for repairs. He finished 40th, jeopardizing his chances of advancing to the next round in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. ‘I don’t know if (Johnson) got slowed up a little bit coming off the corner,’ Biffle said Monday at an appearance promoting this weekend’s race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. ‘We were coming off the corner two-, three-, four-wide. My car started to lose the nose a little bit, started to slide up the race track. It looked like (Johnson) had good momentum off the corner. It looked like I was going to be able to move in behind him. I don’t know if he got slowed up any from the cars in front of him or I tried to move over too early and caught his left rear. You’re going to have that contact when you’re back there two-, three-wide scrambling on a restart. We just got together.’(MRN)(10-7-2014)
