FT. PIERCE, Florida (January 31, 2008) They’re back at it again. You could even call them the three musketeers as ARCA RE/MAX Series drivers Patrick Sheltra (No. 60), Bryan Silas (No. 11) and Gabi DiCarlo (No. 90) will reunite together again to make an appearance together in Florida this Sunday, February 3rd at The Corner Bar in Ft. Pierce , Florida from 12:00pm-4:00 EST. The group made a similar appearance last November in Sheltra’s hometown of Indiantown , Florida .

On the day of the National Football League’s (NFL) biggest event the Super Bowl, the trio are steadily preparing for their Super Bowl in next Saturday’s ARCA 200 at Daytona. All three drivers are sophomores heading into the 56-year old tour’s season opener with Sheltra and DiCarlo anxiously waiting to making their Daytona International Speedway debut. Silas finished 23rd last February.

The full-time ARCA RE/MAX Series drivers will meet and greet with fans and sign autographs while discussing the upcoming season which kicks off on Saturday, February 9, 2008 at Daytona live on SPEED at 4:00pm local time and concludes on ARCA’s hometown turf at Toledo Speedway in October. Last season, all three drivers finished in the top-11 in the final driver championship standings.

“I’m looking forward to Sunday’s appearance,” said Sheltra, who will hightail from 10 nights of dirt racing at Golden Isles Speedway in Brunswick , Georgia to attend Sunday’s event. I went to Atlantic City earlier this month and had a blast but its more fun when you have your fellow competitors with you.” Sheltra drives for Whitesville , Kentucky based Sheltra Motorsports with Ferguson Pipe Enterprises and FloraGanics on board as his primary marketing partners.

For Silas, Ft. Pierce is practically in his backyard and is thrilled about making another appearance in the Sunshine State . “I enjoy hanging with the ARCA fans,” said the 20-year old driver of the No. 11 Nortrax Ford Fusion. “Sunday will be my first appearance of the season, but I’m definitely pumped up about it. I’m ready to get back in the racing swing and this event officially kicks off the 2008 season for me.”

DiCarlo, one of two females expected to run the ARCA series full-time in 2008 doesn’t mind being the only female driver in the picture this weekend at The Corner Bar. “I have a lot of fun with Patrick and Bryan,” the driver of the No. 90 Great Clips Ford said. “The Indiantown Hoedown last November was a great chance for us to give the fans a triple whammy. I’m glad we are able to do the same again Sunday.”
