Greg Biffle's omission highlights NASCAR Hall of Fame's logjam and flawed process
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — This year marked the second consecutive time that Greg Biffle was on the NASCAR Hall of Fame ballot and the first since the December plane crash that killed him and six others while making an emergency landing at a regional North Carolina airport.What Biffle accomplished on the track during his nearly 20-year career makes him a deserving candidate, and it’s understandable why some thought Biffle would be the second of two Modern Era enshrinees, along with 60-time Cup Series winner Kevin Harvick. Instead, Jeff Burton, who has maintained an important presence in the sport long after his driving career, got the nod in a class that also features Pioneer Era driver Larry Phillips and longtime NASCAR executive Lesa France Kennedy, who won the Landmark Award given to an individual for outstanding contributions to NASCAR.Advertisementالمصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
