Not only did Bryan spend the 2008 racing season competing in the ARCA RE/MAX Series and USAR Hooter's Pro Cup Series, but the 21-year old young-gun continued his transition to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. Driving Chevrolet's prepared by Fast Track Racing, Bryan made starts at Bristol Motor Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway respectively.

ARCA RE/MAX Series 2007

Stuart, Florida's Bryan Silas just completed his first full season of ARCA RE/MAX Series competition with solid results. In 23 races this year the 20-year old rookie captured three top-10 finishes knocking down a career best eighth at the tough short track of Salem Speedway while also producing a very competitive eighth place on the super fast Kentucky Spedway this past July.
Driving for the two-time ARCA RE/MAX Series Champion Andy Hillenburg, Silas battled with the best of the best this season. The youngster's first season was a diverse one. From Daytona International Speedway to Salem Speedway and even making his first of two dirt track debuts at Illinois State Fairgrounds, Silas is banking on his experience in 2007 to aid him towards a top-five championship next year
Running a mixture of Fords and Chevrolets through ARCA's very intense racing series, Silas was able to persevere through adversity and prove that no matter what type of equipment the likeable and talented driver is handed, he can drive to the front.
Taking his stab at the lead twice this season at Pocono Raceway and Kentucky Speedway has also sparked that SIlas can be a leading contender week in and week out.
Claiming the ninth position in the 2007 ARCA RE/MAX Series point standings has guaranteed Silas an on-stage appearance at the ARCA RE/MAX Series Championship Awards Banquet on December 8th in Covington, Kentucky.
Silas will return for a full sophomore campaign season driving for Fast Track Racing with activities beginning the second week of December with a three day open ARS test at Daytona International Speedway in preparation for the season opener in February 2008.

NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series 2007
In addition to running a full ARCA RE/MAX Series schedule, Silas also advanced his career to the next stage by competing in a limited NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule this year with Hillenburg's Fast Track Racing bunch in tow.
Making his career start at Kansas Speedway, Silas qualified for the event, remained quiet and calm during the extremely competitive race to post a very respectable 29th place finish in his inaugural debut.
Additional races at Lowe's Motor Speedway, Kentucky Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway saw Silas put the No. 71 Chevrolet Silverado into the field posting a career best 25th at Kentucky Speedway the night after collecting his career best ARCA RE/MAX Series speedway finish.
From short tracks to speedways and even superspeedways, Silas has been able to prove to the NASCAR community he is the real deal and, with a little more time, he'll mature even further into a serious contender.
Silas also knows the playing field rises considerably in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, the 20 year old knows that NASCAR is on his horizon and the experience he gains this season will only help further propel his ARCA career.
The valuable truck time will continue to sink in as Silas plans to run two more events this season before moving ahead to another limited schedule in 2008 with a full ARCA schedule already in place, with a serious look at a full NCTS championship effort in 2009
