| Faulk Prepares for ARCA Debut this Weekend | Florida Driver Ready for Nashville Superspeedway
By Scott McAllister
After capturing the 2005 USAR Hooters Pro Cup Southern Rookie of the Year, Michael Faulk and the MB3 Motorsports team are poised to make their mark in the prestigious ARCA RE/MAX Series this Saturday for the PFG Lester 150 at Nashville Superspeedway.
Faulk has captured three ROTY awards in the past four seasons and now views this event as his biggest opportunity to date. “I came here before in the [NASCAR] Southeast Series and had a good run. It’s a fast track and a lot of fun”, said Faulk.
Two vital additions to the MB3 Motorsports team include veteran Crew Chief Lee Leslie and Primary Sponsor RADD (Recording Artists, Actors and Athletes Against Drunk Driving.) Lee Leslie was most recently the crew chief for former 3-time ARCA RE/MAX Champion Tim Steele.

Leslie, the brother of 1988 RE/MAX Series driving champion Tracy Leslie and veteran Cup crew chief Ben Leslie, guided Brent Sherman to a runner-up RE/MAX Series points finish in 2004. “It’s a great feeling knowing Lee will be making the calls for us this weekend. His record speaks for itself and we are lucky to have him join the MB3 Team,” said Faulk.
The other new addition is the Primary Sponsor for the PFG Lester 150, RADD: The Entertainment Industry's Voice for Road Safety. An internationally recognized nonprofit [501 (c)(3)] corporation since 1986, RADD pairs athletes, celebrities, media partners and socially conscious sponsors to create positive attitudes about road safety. Radio personalities were the first to respond to the high death rate among young people from alcohol-involved crashes. Today, RADD's roster now encompasses music, entertainment and sports personalities including Paul McCartney, Aerosmith, Shaquille O’Neal, Elton John and many others. “This is an important issue for both me and my wife,” said team owner Michael Burton. “Michelle and I know about the pressures that face our children and RADD has done a fantastic job raising awareness in young adults regarding the dangers of drunk driving. We are proud to have them onboard and do what we can to promote transportation safety.”
The ARCA RE/MAX Series PFG Lester 150 at the Nashville Superspeedway will be broadcast live on the Speed Channel on April 15 at 1:30PM EST.
