Level 5 Ferrari Poised to Hit Famed Track with Momentum On Their Side - Tucker coming off two wins a

Overland Park, Kan. (May 14, 2008) – Just two weeks ago Scott Tucker swept a pair of races at Infineon Raceway in the Ferrari Challenge Series in dominant fashion. Tucker's driving was short of perfect as he led 46 of 49 laps during the two wins, established a new track race lap record for the series and beat his competition handedly in one race where the margin of victory was nearly 10 seconds.

Level 5 Motorsports and it's No. 55 M & I Bank, Ferrari V8-Crawford GT are eager to hit the track this weekend for the Rolex Grand-Am Series Rum Bum 250. The team heads west for the second time this month to another famed California road track, Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca on May 17, where it hopes success is in the picture.

Tucker is taking his wins in stride from the Ferrari Challenge Series earlier this month. "The team gave me a great car a few weeks ago and it was their work that put us in Victory Circle. This weekend at Mazda Raceway presents us with an entirely different set of challenges; I'm confident in our abilities and know that we'll do everything we can to put the No. 55 M & I Bank Ferrari in a competitive position once the green flag drops.

Ed Zabinski concurred with Tucker and knows that you're only as good as your current race and the track at hand. "Laguna Seca is one of the greatest tracks in this country, it's challenging, fun to drive and will provide us with many opportunities to learn and grow as a team."

Team Manager, David Stone is also ready for the weekend, "We have made many refinements in the car since our last outing at Homestead that should equate to improved reliability and also make the car more driver friendly. As each day goes by our program is improving greatly." The weekend lends itself for another quality race with the backing of team sponsor M & I Bank. M & I Bank is a Milwaukee-based financial institution with a 150-year history of a customer-based approach, focusing on growth and strategic acquisitions. These principles have made M & I a nationally recognized leader in the financial services industry. M & I has retail banking offices in Wisconsin, Arizona, Minnesota, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Nevada, Florida, Indiana and Illinois.

Kevin Novack Wine Adventures also joins the dynamic team. Based in Portland, Oregon, the company was founded in 2003 by Kevin Novack. As proprietor of a successful distribution company, Novack handles all responsibilities for development, marketing and expansion of his D'Vine Wine distribution brand.
