ALEX JOB RACING, McKENNA PORSCHE USE FAST DRIVING, PIT STRATEGY
TO INCREASE ALMS POINTS LEAD


Portland, OR - August 5, 2001- Utilizing classic endurance racing
strategy, the Alex Job Racing McKenna Porsche team combined fast
driving with fresh tires to pull out a late race jump into a second
place finish for the # 23 911 GT3 RS, co-driven by Sascha Maassen
and Lucas Luhr. This increases the duos point lead in the American
Le Mans Series GT class.

They day didn't end quite as well for the #22 911 GT3 RS, co-driven
by Randy Pobst and Christen Menzel. Menzel got quite a jump at the
start as well, picking up three positions. It was short lived
however. According to Menzel: "The car was balanced pretty good at
the start, but as soon as the track conditions changed, my car got
worse, and so did my times."

"I was able to get a great jump at the start," said Maassen. "I got
by the BMWs, who out qualified us, at the green flag, but as the
race wore on, my tires started to go away. The track conditions
today (warm and sunny) were unlike any of the previous days here."

"We came in and changed all four tires on the #23 at the next to
last pit stop," said team owner Alex Job. "By changing the tires
under a yellow flag so late in the race, we forced BMW into doing
the same a few laps later. This allowed us to move up from fourth
to second. Lucas had the front splitter knocked off on the next to
last restart, and that hurt us, but I don't believe we would have
caught the winning BMW. It was that strong. We still feel V8 BMWs
are running as fast as they need to, but my team made all the right
calls today, and it paid off with a second place finish. I am very
proud of them."

"It was a very exciting race today, said McKenna Porsche Vice
President Neil Okun. When the race is this exciting, it's hard not
to get excited about it ourselves. We are proud of the way the team
performed, especially at the end of the race. It was real
accomplishment for Alex and his experienced team."

Now in its 13th year of competition, Alex Job Racing (AJR) is one
of the premier independent Porsche teams in the American Le Mans
Series (ALMS). Based in a brand new 16,000 sq. ft. facility in
Tavares, Florida, AJR entries have tallied three victories in the
