                                 ~orari-Lkta       DORAN JE4  Lexus
                        Finishes Second at Mont-Trtsmblant Sunday

                    MONT-TREMBWNT, Quebec,  May 23  -           The  Doran-Lista Racing DORAN
             JE4   k x u s  #27  and  drivers  Jan  Magnussen  and  Didier  Theys  finished  second
             Sunday in a very competitive Six Hours of  Mom-Tremblant Rolex series race at Le
             Circuit Mont-Tremblant.
                    Finding the right Goodyear tire compound for the track conditions proved to be
             the biggest challenge Sunday, but fuel strategy ended up being the determining factor
             in who finished where.   The Doran-Lista &am  pitted under a full-coufse yellow late in
             the race to  be sure it had the best tires and enough fuel to COmplete the raw, where-
             as some of the other teams chose to stay out and gamble that they could go the dis-
             tance. That put Magnussen in fourth for the very last run, with the goal being to chase
             down the three cars ahead of him.  He was able to pass all but one before time ran out,
             but team  Owner Kevin Dclran said that would have taken a lot: of   luck anyway,
                    With about a half-hour to go Magnussen zoomed by Butch kitzinger for third.  He
             then took aim at Terry Borcheller, who was I .7seconds ahead of him. me eventual win-
             ner, Scott Pruett in the CompUSA Riley Lexus, had a 5.7-setxind lead at that point.
                    Magnussen  passed  Borcheller  for  second  place  about  10  minutes  later.
             Although Pruett slowed for awhile to conserve fuel he still had enough to go the dis-
             tance.   The  race ended under yellow after the  the Csgwa Sport Fabcar Lexus hit a
             barrier and stopped on the track with three laps to go, so the PruettlMax Papis combo
             took   the   victory.     The  other  two podium  finishes  were  both  DORAN JE4s,  as
             Borcheller was third in t h e  Bell Motorsports Pontiac.
                    Magnussen drove the first third and the last third of the r3m, with Didier Theys
             handling the driving duties in the middle. Magnussen was one of  six drivers to lead
             the racq  leading 31 laps of the 200-lap contest.

              Doran-Llsta Second at Mmt-Tremblant

                    JAN MAGNUSSEN: "I'm happy for the team; it didn't look like we'd get on the
              padium today for awhile.  Obviously I'd  like to win, but second is  good.  And  I  had no
             trouble with anybody today- We had some damage to the left front; Didier had prob-
              lems  with  a  Porsche  on  a  restart  and  there  wa$  contact  between  me  and  the
              Crawford-l  think it's the #=+-he ran out of fuel or samething and just stopped in front
              of  me.   We worked through all sorts of  tire compounds; we  really chased the track
              today.  Our Lexus engine was very good. I'm glad we're on the podium.  It was a hard-
              fought race all the way.You were always fighting with somebody."
                     DIDIER THEYS:   "It was a very competitive race.  There were so many differ-
              ent leaders and the cars are so closely matched.  We tried different tire compounds
              today.  When I was in the car I didn't like my tire compound; the track was very slip-
              pery and I was not comfortable.  Then when Jan was in the car we found a compound
              that we liked."
                     KEVIN DORAN: "At least we didn't crash!   It was a great race.   It was really
              three two-hour sprint races running flat out.   We lost the handle on it in the middle
              when the surface got really greasy. Didier got: it sorted out and then when Jan was in
              it the second time  he liked th8 tire compound.    It was  definitely a different sufface
              than we've  ever  had here before.   I think  it's because the  race has moved to the
              spring, and this was one of   the first really warm days they've had here.  I think the ail
              in the track boiled up to the surface, and h a t  was why some of the compounds did-
              n't work  like we  expected them to. But it's great to see two DORAN JE4s on the podi-
              um."
