QUALIFYING WASHED OUT AT DENVER,
MOTOROCK MILE HIGH 100 GRID SET BY PRACTICE TIMES

DENVER ‹ Qualifying for Sundayıs MotoRock Mile High 100, part of the Centrix
Financial Grand Prix of Denver, was called due to a thunderstorm that hit
the Denver metro area. The provisional starting grid was set by combined
practice times, recorded yesterday, placing Scott Pruett (No. 7 MotoRock
Jaguar XKR) on the pole. Boris Said (No. 33 ACS/GE Access/Sun Microsystems
Ford Mustang) will start second, ahead of rookie Jorge Diaz, Jr. (No. 8 Don
Q Rum Jaguar XKR), Johnny Miller (No. 64 Eaton Cutler-Hammer Jaguar XKR),
and Tomy Drissi (No. 5 Stuck on You, The Movie).

Due to the rain, a practice replaced the qualifying session. The practice
started on time, was subsequently red flagged for rain, and was then
checkered early due to extensive water on the course.

The MotoRock Mile High 100, Round 9 of the 2003 MotoRock Trans-Am Tour for
the BFGoodrich Tires Cup, will take the green flag tomorrow at approximately
4 p.m., following the Champ Car World Series race.
