Biffle wins rain-delayed MBNA America 200

DOVER, Del., June 7 (UPI) -- Greg Biffle won his third NASCAR Busch Series race of the season Monday at the rain-delayed, caution-filled MBNA America 200.

Biffle started his Ford Taurus seventh Saturday before rain delayed the event for almost six hours. Only 28 of the 200 laps were completed before officials scheduled the restart for Monday.

The 2002 Busch Series champion but now a Nextel Cup regular, Biffle grabbed the lead for the first time with 21 miles left and won by 1.772 seconds.

"Brad (Parrott, crew chief) told me early on, 'Just take it easy, take it easy," said Biffle, who averaged 87.934 miles per hour. "Then we made some adjustments to the car and it took off."

Biffle held off Martin Truex Jr. and David Green for his 14th career victory. It was his second Busch Series win here.

Truex led the most laps with 75 in his Chevrolet Monte Carlo and finished second.
