When the green flag waves at Charlotte Motor Speedway to begin the Coca-Cola 600, Greg Biffle will be starting his milestone 450th career Sprint Cup race.

Biffle, a former Xfinity and Camping World Series Champion, has recorded 19 wins, 169 top 10s, and 12 poles in 14 Sprint Cup seasons.

The 45-year-old made his Sprint Cup debut in 2002 at the NAPA Auto Parts 500, where he finished 13th.

Biffle will start in fourth position in the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday, his best qualifying effort of the 2015 season. His No. 16 Ford was also fourth fastest (186.942 mph) in the final practice session of the weekend.

"It's kind of amazing how fast the time goes by," Biffle said. "I remember my 300th start; we did a deal at Martinsville a few years back. It seems like it was last year or the year before, but it was 150 starts ago and that is a long time. It amazes you how fast it goes, and I've got a lot of great memories, wins, close races and fun times."
