CASCAR ANNOUNCES TITLE SPONSOR FOR MOLSON INDY TORONTO EVENT: THE "AVENUE ACDELCO 100"

For immediate release / May 27, 2003

TORONTO, ON - CASCAR announced today that a title sponsor agreement has been
reached for the CASCAR event at the Molson Indy Toronto. Avenue Motor Works,
Canada's largest ACDelco dealer, and ACDelco have teamed up to create the
"Avenue ACDelco 100".

The title sponsorship agreement goes far beyond sponsoring only the race
itself, and will see some new, very exciting promotions put into place
during "Indyfest", a week-long schedule of fun and exciting promotional
activities leading up to the Molson Indy Toronto.

The highlights of the pre-race promotions will be the Avenue ACDelco Media
Challenge Pit Stop Competition, which will take place on Tuesday, July 8th
at the TD Centre, and the Avenue ACDelco Pit Stop Competition at the Molson
Street Party on the evening of Thursday July 10th.

The Media Challenge competition will allow media personalities and
representatives to form teams and enter to see which team can perform the
fastest tire change on a real CASCAR race car. The Pit Stop Competition will
be in operation at the Thursday evening Molson Street Party from 7:00 pm to
midnight, and will give fans the chance to work as a team or individually to
see who can perform the quickest tire change on the CASCAR race machine of
driver Mark Dilley.

The CASCAR race is the feature race on Saturday afternoon at the Molson Indy
Toronto. The on-track action during the CASCAR show is widely considered to
be the most entertaining racing of the entire weekend. Last year Edmonton
Alberta's Kevin Dowler started in 37th and last position, and his worked way
to the front of the field in a breathtaking drive to take the race win. The
CASCAR race will be held from 5:15 pm to 6:30 pm on Saturday afternoon this
year.

"We are very proud and extremely excited to sponsor the CASCAR event at the
Molson Indy Toronto," stated John  Bosschaert, president of Avenue Motor
Works. "The Molson Indy Toronto is one of the finest motorsports events in
North America, and it is one of CASCAR's premier race dates. We are thrilled
to be a part of that. We are also very excited about the terrific off-track
promotions that have been organized, which will further promote Avenue Motor
Works, ACDelco, and CASCAR."

"The involvement of Avenue Motor Works and ACDelco in our Molson Indy
Toronto race has really allowed us to take our participation in the event to
the next level," said Richard Coughlin, CASCAR director of marketing. "We
have been putting on a tremendous on-track show for several years now, but
this year we will also be heavily involved in all the fantastic promotional
events leading up to the race. It will allow us to take an already great
event for CASCAR and make it much better, and we are very appreciative to
Avenue Motor Works and ACDelco for partnering with us to allow this growth
to happen."

Challenge Pit Stop Competition should contact Gail MacDonald, Vice
