List of NASCAR race wins by Greg Biffle

Greg Biffle was an American professional race car driver who most notably competed in the NASCAR Cup Series from 2002 to 2022, mainly driving the No.16 Ford for Jack Roush's Roush Fenway Racing team from 2002 to 2016.^[1] Biffle made his NASCAR debut in the Craftsman Truck Series in 1998. He had left a lasting impression on former Cup Series champion Benny Parsons, who witnessed Biffle compete in and win the ESPN-televised Winter Heat Series in 1996. On Parsons' recommendation, Roush gave the 28-year old Washington native an opportunity in the No.60 truck in 1998.^[2][3] Biffle went on to secure Truck Series Rookie of the Year honours in 1998, set a then-record 9 wins in a season in 1999, and win Jack Roush's first NASCAR title in 2000 on the back of an additional 5 wins on the season.^[4][5] In total, Biffle scored 17 Truck Series wins in his career.^[6]

For 2001, Jack Roush decided to promote Biffle to the Busch Series, with an eye on the Cup Series in 2003. Biffle described the promotion to NASCAR's second tier as "more of a lateral move than moving up", but rewarded Roush with 5 wins, a Rookie of the Year title, and a 4th place points finish in 2001. He then followed up this immediate success with a championship campaign, winning 4 races and securing the 2002 Busch Series title.^[7][8] Biffle would amass 20 wins in the Busch Series, all coming between 2001 and 2009.^[9]

After winning another NASCAR championship for Jack Roush, Biffle was promoted to the sport's premier series in 2003. He would drive using only the No.16 for the entirety of his full-time Cup career, a distinction only matched by Jeff Gordon (with No.24), Jimmie Johnson (with No.48), and Juan Pablo Montoya (with No.42) amongst drivers of his era. Biffle immediately delivered his first Cup Series win in his rookie campaign. In the 17th race of the 2003 season, and in just his 24th Cup Series start, Greg Biffle would win the 2003 Pepsi 400 at Daytona International Speedway, leading the contest's final 21 laps.^[10] He would follow this up with 2 wins in 2004, coming at Michigan and Homestead-Miami.^[11][12]

The following year would prove to be Greg Biffle's most prolific year in the Cup Series, as 2005 saw his 16 team in victory lane 6 times, more than any other competitor. Biffle earned victories at California, Texas, Darlington, Dover, Michigan, and Homestead-Miami, but a loose wheel during the 2005 Dickies 500 at Texas in November would ultimately cost him the 2005 title.^[13] He would finish a mere 35 points behind legendary driver Tony Stewart in the final standings. As of 2025, Biffle remains the driver who came closest to winning a championship across all 3 of NASCAR's top series.^[14]

After narrowly missing out on claiming NASCAR's ultimate prize, Biffle would endure difficult seasons in both 2006 and 2007, missing out on Chase for the Cup qualification. He would however earn victories at Darlington and Homestead-Miami in 2006, and at Kansas in 2007. These wins proved to be noteworthy: with back-to-back Southern 500 victories in 2005 and 2006, Greg Biffle became only the 7th driver in NASCAR history to accomplish the feat, joining Herb Thomas, Bobby Allison, Cale Yarborough, David Pearson, Dale Earnhardt, and Jeff Gordon.^[15] And by winning the 2006 Ford 400, Biffle secured 3 consecutive victories at Homestead-Miami Speedway, an achievement that has not been matched as of 2025.^[16] He is tied with Tony Stewart for most Cup Series wins (3) at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Biffle's 2008 campaign would yield wins in the opening two rounds of the Chase for the Cup at Loudon and Dover, becoming the first driver to accomplish this feat.^[17] His championship push however was short-lived, and he would eventually place 3rd in the season's final standings.^[18] 2009 saw a 7th place points finish but no wins for Biffle, marking the first time in his Cup career that he had failed to achieve victory in a season.^[19] The 16 team would return to winning form in 2010, earning victories at Pocono and Kansas and placing 6th overall for the season.^[20][21]

Biffle would endure a winless 2011 season before making the final championship push of his career in 2012.^[22][23] That year, he would earn victories at Texas and Michigan, and lead the championship standings longer than any other driver, but would ultimately be undone by Chase re-seeding and fade to 5th in the final rank.^[24][25][26] In 2013, Biffle would win the Quicken Loans 400 at Michigan, taking the 19th and final victory of his Cup Series career.^[27] Biffle would remain with Roush Fenway Racing until the end of 2016, quietly bowing out of full-time competition thereafter.^[28] He would however make a surprise cameo return with Kyle Busch Motorsports in 2019, piloting the No.51 truck to victory at Texas.^[29] This win proved to be the 56th and final victory in NASCAR competition for Biffle.

In all, Biffle won a total of 56 NASCAR races, 19 of which were in the Cup Series. Biffle also won 20 races in the Busch Series and 17 in the Craftsman Truck Series.^[30] All but 4 of his victories came driving for Jack Roush, with 53 of 56 representing Ford. Of the remaining non-Roush wins, 2 came for Evans Motorsports (Chevrolet), 1 for Brewco Motorsports (Ford) and 1 for Kyle Busch Motorsports (Toyota). His most successful circuit was Michigan International Speedway, where he won 6 times (4 in Cup, 2 in Trucks).^[31][32][33] Biffle's largest margin of victory in the Cup Series was at the 2004 GFS Marketplace 400 at Michigan International Speedway, a race where he finished 8.216 seconds ahead of teammate Mark Martin, while his smallest margin of victory was at the 2005 Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where he once again beat the aforementioned Martin by 0.017 seconds.^[34][35] He was named one of NASCAR's 75 Greatest Drivers in 2023, and is a nominee for the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte.^[36]
