    LOUDON, NH – Greg Biffle scored another top-ten finish – his fifth of the year - in Brewco Motorsports’ No. 37 Cub Cadet Ford Fusion: this time in the Camping World 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway Saturday night.
     After qualifying in 15th place for the event, Biffle struggled early in the race, telling Crew Chief Newt Moore over the radio on lap eight that the car was a “little bit too loose.” The Brewco Cub Cadet team pitted on lap 36 of the 200-lap event for four tires, fuel and to make trackbar and air pressure adjustments.
