Reacting to the good news, a former teammate at Roush Racing, David Ragan expressed his pleasure in seeing Biffle on the list. He said, “Yeah all of my years, I was a teammate with Greg Biffle over at Roush Racing, and one thing that stands out about Greg other than being a good teammate on the track and off the track, he was soo fast last certain race tracks if you gave him a car that was just in the ballpark at a track like Michigan or a track like Texas or Miami Homestead Speedway, Darlington he could get that extra few tents and he would be light out so a super fast driver and very very well much deserved.”

And fans certainly had a ball of a time, celebrating their favorite driver getting the much-deserved recognition. Taking things to social media platforms like Reddit, fans went on a rant wishing the driver and appreciating his illustrious career.

A fan wrote, reminiscing the glory days with the driver behind the wheel of his Dodge,

“I am so pumped Biffle got on here, I never was that big of a fan of him when he was racing but now I really miss da Biff”

Others relished old memories of the driver,

“STIFFFORDABIFF”
