West Allis, Wisc. (August 24, 2007) - Phillip McGilton makes his first
appearance at the Milwaukee Mile this weekend in the Governor's Cup 200 as
the ARCA RE/MAX Series returns for its 10th visit to the famed one-mile
paved oval. Fresh off a 10th place finish in his dirt track debut, McGilton
is confident that he and his Brewco Motorsports teammates will continue
their success in Milwaukee. With sunny weather in the forecast for the
weekend, McGilton is ready to take the Milwaukee Mile by storm.

"We had a really good test at Gateway," commented McGilton, "and we're
bringing the same car to Milwaukee. I'm really looking forward to this
weekend. I think the No. 47 SI Performance Ford Fusion will be really good
and strong here."

Michael McDowell. McGilton is currently in the 5th position in the 2007 ARCA
RE/MAX Series Championship race with 3200 points, 105 points behind 4th
