2003 TEAM RAHAL TO PROVIDE ATLANTIC TEST FOR CHAMP CAR STARS OF TOMORROW CHAMPIONS

HILLIARD, Oh. - Team Rahal, one of the leading open-wheel racing teams in North America, announced today
that it would provide a full-day Toyota Atlantic Championship test to the ICC and ICA category winners of the
2003 Champ Car Stars of Tomorrow competition.  The two rising stars will each participate in a full-day test in
Team  Rahal's  Argent  Mortgage  Toyota/Swift  with  Team  Rahal's  Toyota  Atlantic  team  December  10-11  at
Carolina Motorsports Park in Kershaw, North Carolina.

Bobby Wilson, a 22 year-old native of Dousman, Wis., captured the 125cc ICC category championship with five
national  Stars  race  wins  in  addition  to  a  victory  in  the  Grand  Prix  of  Windsor.    The  winner  of  the  2003  Jim
Trueman Scholarship Award, Wilson will be visiting the Team Rahal race shop in the next few weeks for a seat
fitting and final preparation for his early December test.  Wilson is already committed to running the 18-race
Formula  Ford  2000  Zetec  championship  for  Cape  Motorsports  of  St.  Petersburg,  Florida,  as  part  of  his  2004
racing program.

"The chance to test the Team Rahal Toyota Atlantic car is awesome," said Wilson.  "I've always wanted to drive
one of those cars and it is great that the Stars of Tomorrow program gives a karting racer the opportunity to get
behind the wheel of that kind of machine."

The  second  recipient  is  Robbie  Pecorari,  a  16  year-old  native  of  Aston,  Pa.,  who  captured  the  100cc  ICA
category  championship  with  five  Stars  national  wins,  including  four  of  the  first  five  events  of  the  season.
Pecorari failed to finish on the podium only once in nine events this season. Like Wilson he will be visiting the
Team Rahal race shop for a seat fitting and additional preparations for the full-day Toyota Atlantic test.

"I am really excited to drive that Toyota Atlantic car," said Pecorari.  "It has been one of my goals to get into one
of those cars and this chance should be a thrill.  Now that I am moving into cars next year, this opportunity will
be very good experience.  I want to thank Team Rahal and the Stars program for this chance."

"We at Team Rahal are pleased to present the testing opportunity to Bobby and Robbie, an opportunity that they
both  richly  deserve,"  said  Bobby  Rahal,  Team  Rahal  owner  who  won  the  1986  Indianapolis  500  and  three
Champ Car championships. "They both had fantastic seasons in their respective divisions and they both have a
bright future ahead of them.  I have always been a big supporter of the Champ Car ladder system of which the
Stars of Tomorrow program is the inaugural step.  Team Rahal has been involved with the Stars of Tomorrow
program from the first year and we are proud to continue our involvement in helping develop the next generation
of racing champions."

The Champ Car Stars of Tomorrow represents both the pinnacle series in the sport of kart racing and the first
step to a career in motorsports. As the initial step in the Championship Auto Racing Teams Driver Development
Ladder System, Stars gives racers the chance to move onward, ultimately to driving a Champ Car. Likewise, the
racers in the Stars of Tomorrow series are among the most talented, promising upcoming drivers, and warrant
attention in their own right.

Team Rahal is now in its second decade as one of the leading open-wheel racing teams in North America.  Based
in Hilliard, Ohio, the team is co-owned by three-time CART champion and 1986 Indianapolis 500 winner Bobby
Rahal  and  CBS  LATE  SHOW  host  David  Letterman.  Currently  the  team  campaigns  cars  in  the  Indy  Racing
League's  IndyCar  Series,  the  Bridgestone  presents  the  Champ  Car  World  Series  powered  by  Ford,  and  the
Toyota Atlantic Championship.
