TROIS-RIVIÈRES PENALTIES REVISED

LANSING, Mich. ‹ The Trans-Am Series for the BFGoodrich Tires Cup has
revised two penalties assessed during the Aug. 2 Grand Prix de
Trois-Rivières race. The penalties, levied against Tomy Drissi (No. 5 Jaguar
XKR) and Joey Scarallo (No. 06 Chevrolet Corvette), were the result of
violation of rule 2.10 in the Trans-Am Series General Regulations and
Technical Specifications: ³Ground Clearance² found in post-race inspection.

Drissi and Scarallo will be moved to the bottom of the results, with a
notation stating ³excluded from results.² In addition, neither driver will
receive Drivers¹ or Team Owners¹ points or prize money for the
Trois-Rivières event. The rest of the field moves up as a result.

The penalties were adjusted to conform to the precedence set in the Trans-Am
Series for previous violations of technical specifications.

The revised official results are as follows:
