Carlos Cares Racing has collaborated with Interstate Performance in an effort to put together an effective driving program for the 2024 USDC Formula Drift ProAM Series in Florida. Palm Coast shop owner and operator of Interstate Performance, Alexander Insley, will be acting as Crew Chief, Spotter and Pit-Chef. His genuine and selfless personality, combined with extensive knowledge of automotive racing will be utilized to keep our driver aware, collected and on the path for success.
Another member of our team is the tall, dark and handsome, William Matos, owner and operator of our title sponsor this season, Showfer. Showfer is a custom app that connects licensed realtors to each other when the desire to show a home to a potential client is under hard to accomplish circumstances. Will is the acting program manager of Carlos Cares Racing and a neccesity to the team. His creative and ambitious personality has brought vision to our program with respect to driver image, program funding, expansion and overall sustainability.
During the end of 2023, the S13 had some fabrication efforts to be addressed. Fortunately for Carlos Cares Racing, the boys over at iFab Racing, a racing fabrication shop in Largo, Florida, accepted the challenge to assemble a rolling shell and turn it into a near pro level drift car with a 3 month deadline. Adam Gjestrum and Josh Rice have outdone themselves with high quality work, creative solutions to budget restricted modifications needed to be competitive and a respectable turn around time. Their attention to detail and passion for efficiency has added to team's overall capabilities for maintenance and reliability during competition.
