RFK Racing and Kaulig Racing will honor the late Greg Biffle with Biffle-specific number fonts in the 2026 Daytona 500, both teams announced Jan. 22.
RFK’s four NASCAR Cup Series entries in the race will feature number fonts recalling the numerals Biffle sported during his career with the team, while Kaulig’s AJ Allmendinger, who drives the No. 16 Biffle ran for much of his career, will do the same.
“Greg Biffle was more than a championship driver, he was family,” said RFK Racing co-owner Brad Keselowski said in a team release. “He helped shape who we are as an organization, and his legacy is woven into this team’s history.
“Returning to the iconic numeric font that defined so much of his career, and adding the season long decal to each car, are meaningful ways for us to honor Greg and carry his spirit. We can’t bring him back, but we can honor him on the track the best way we know how, all season long.”
“Greg Biffle made the No. 16 famous and was a true friend to Kaulig Racing and the whole racing community,” Kaulig CEO Chris Rice added. “This is our way of honoring his incredible career and the person he was. When AJ Allmendinger drives this car at Daytona, we hope fans remember Greg, his family, and all the great memories he gave us.”
In addition to the Daytona 500 fonts, RFK said it will have a memorial decal on the B-post of its cars this season, beginning with the Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium, with the words “The Biff 16, In Loving Memory of Greg Biffle.”
NASCAR will have its own tribute at the Clash, with a painted stencil version of RFK’s decal being displayed in the infield.
“Greg Biffle was one of the most special drivers I’ve ever had the privilege of working with,” RFK founder Jack Roush said. “He gave everything he had to this organization, and together we shared some of the proudest moments in our history. Honoring Greg this season is deeply personal for all of us, and it’s important that we remember the role he played in building this team and the standard he helped set.”
Biffle, his family and three others died Dec. 18, 2025, in a plane crash in Statesville, N.C.
