ARCA RE/MAX Series

 CORNELIUS, NC (11-15-07) - Michael McDowell's dream season will conclude with this Saturday's NASCAR Busch Series season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. In a year that saw McDowell raise the bar for fellow ARCA RE/MAX Series competitors and a deal struck with Toyota-backed NASCAR team Michael Waltrip Racing, McDowell looks to make one final indentation on the 2007 season.
His last two Busch Series races at Texas and Phoenix saw respective finishes of 20th and 14th. Certainly not bad for his first career starts, but the 22 year-old, soon- to-be NASCAR rookie wants more out of his fledgling program.
