CHARLOTTE, N.C. — July 30, 2025 — In a move that has both surprised and thrilled longtime NASCAR fans, Greg Biffle is officially returning to competitive racing in 2025. The 55-year-old former NASCAR Cup Series veteran has signed a limited-race deal with a yet-to-be-named team, marking his most significant return to the sport since his last Cup start in 2020.
Sources close to the deal confirm Biffle will compete in select NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series events, with an emphasis on intermediate tracks and short ovals — layouts where “The Biff” built his reputation as a gritty, smart racer during his prime.
🏁 The Return of “The Biff”
Greg Biffle’s career resume speaks for itself:
2000 NASCAR Truck Series Champion 2002 NASCAR Xfinity Series Champion 19 career Cup Series wins Over 40 wins across NASCAR’s top three series
Known for his aggressive driving style and adaptability, Biffle was a key figure in the early 2000s NASCAR landscape, racing for powerhouse Roush Racing and contending regularly for championships. After stepping away from full-time competition in 2016, Biffle made sporadic appearances in Trucks — even winning a race at Texas in 2019 — but remained largely out of the spotlight.
Now, he’s back — and by all indications, not just for a ceremonial lap.
🤝 The Deal
While the official announcement from the team is expected later this week, insiders report that Biffle will:
Drive a part-time schedule in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Bring significant sponsor interest, including a mix of legacy brands and new partners Possibly serve in a mentorship role to younger drivers within the organization
The deal is being framed as a “competitive comeback,” with Biffle reportedly insistent on driving only for a team that can field top-10 equipment.
“I wouldn’t be doing this if I didn’t think I could still compete,” Biffle said in a brief media tease posted to social media Tuesday night. “I’ve got something left in the tank — and I’ve missed this.”
📈 Why Now?
Biffle’s return aligns with a broader trend of veteran racers exploring part-time opportunities as the sport embraces both its past and future. The Truck Series, in particular, has become a playground for seasoned drivers looking to stay sharp or scratch the competitive itch without a full-season commitment.
Multiple sources cite renewed interest from sponsors and fans alike in seeing Biffle return to action. With the current Truck Series field featuring a mix of rising stars and seasoned veterans, his presence adds depth and star power to the 2025 season.
🗓 What to Watch
Biffle’s first race back is expected to be at Kansas Speedway, a track where he’s had past success. His schedule will likely include 4–6 events, depending on performance and availability. Look for official team details — including truck number, paint scheme, and sponsors — to be revealed in a press conference later this week.
🔥 Fan Reaction
Biffle’s surprise comeback has already ignited social media:
“Greg Biffle back in a truck? Inject it into my veins.”
“The Biff never truly left — welcome home, legend.”
“One more ride for one of the most underrated drivers ever.”
The return of a blue-collar fan favorite like Biffle represents more than just nostalgia — it’s a nod to the gritty, no-nonsense spirit that helped shape NASCAR’s golden era.
📌 Final Thoughts
Greg Biffle’s return to racing in 2025 is more than a headline — it’s a chance for one of NASCAR’s most respected veterans to write a new chapter. Whether it ends in victory lane or simply on his own terms, one thing is clear:
The Biff is back.
