We have everything in place and I really think we’ll be someone to beat next year. “ Faulk and the MB3 Motorsports team made their second ARCA RE/MAX Series start at Talladega Superspeedway this past October piloting the same Dodge Charger that female sensation Erin Crocker steered to a 10th place finish at Daytona. Faulk qualified 17th for the final Superspeedway race of the season. Faulk made a lasting impression in the race drafting his Dodge to the top of the field leading for five markers before being shuffled back to a eighth place finish. It was the second-straight top-10 effort for the team, as they also finished ninth in their debut at Nashville Superspeedway in April. “We were very successful in our two races this season,�?? added Faulk, a former Hooter’s Pro Cup Series driver. “We competed in a limited schedule to shake out all the bugs and I think they are all gone. We’re going to be much stronger next season and I’m looking forward to the positive outlook for this team.�?? Corrie Stott will call the shots for Faulk next season. Stott has over 20 years of experience in Motorsports and has experience as a shop foreman and crew chief for multiple NASCAR Nextel Cup teams over the years. “Corrie has been great to work with,�?? said the rookie driver. “We came out of the box really strong at Talladega and we communicate on the same level and that’s important. I think we have all the right ingredients to put ourselves in victory lane.�?? The team will run in more than half of the scheduled events on the 2007 ARCA RE/MAX Series calendar. The team plans to compete in only two short track events at Lakeland Speedway, in Florida – brand new to the ARCA schedule and Iowa Speedway in Newton, Iowa. The remainder of the team’s schedule will come at tracks equaling a mile and a half or greater. Faulk, a third generation driver has two ARCA starts to his resume with a career best finish of eighth at Talladega Superspeedway (October 2006) while holding an additional top ten finish of ninth at Nashville Superspeedway (April 2006). He holds a career best superspeedway time trials effort of 17th at Nashville Superspeedway (April 2006) and Talladega Superspeedway (October 2006).
