KohR Motorsports will run a Greg Biffle tribute livery on its No. 60 Ford Mustang GT4 in next month’s IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge season opener at Daytona International Speedway, it has been revealed.

The Dean Martin-led squad, which recently confirmed its full season lineup of Evan Slater and Ray Mason in the GS class entry, will adorn the colors that Biffle took to the 2002 NASCAR Busch Series championship title.

Biffle, named one of NASCAR’s ’75 Greatest Drivers’, tragically died in a plane crash with his family last week at the age of 55.

The livery, adapted to the Mustang GT4 by renowned motorsports graphic designer Andy Blackmore, will be on the No. 60 car for both the pre-season test during the Roar Before the Rolex 24 and the four-hour BMW Endurance Challenge the following week.

Biffle, who retied from full-time NASCAR Cup Series racing in 2016, was a longtime Ford Racing driver and ambassador.
