Former NASCAR driver Greg Biffle has been named the honorary starter for the Bank of America Roval 400 at Charlotte Motor Speedway in recognition of his extensive hurricane relief efforts following Hurricane Helene. Biffle utilized his personal helicopter to deliver essential supplies such as food, water, and medical necessities to families stranded in remote areas of North Carolina, where the storm caused severe damage and flooding. His rescue operations, which began with a single call for help, evolved into a larger mission dubbed 'Operation Airdrop' due to the widespread devastation he witnessed. Biffle's contributions have garnered significant attention and appreciation from the NASCAR community, with calls for him to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom. The Roval race will also feature NASCAR legends Ricky Rudd and Carl Edwards as Grand Marshals, both set to be inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2025. Biffle expressed deep commitment to the relief efforts, highlighting the ongoing need for support in the affected areas.
