Pep Boys 300 presented by Greased Lightning Orange Blast at Salem

Pendleton, Ind. (September 11, 2003) ? Making its annual appearance at the
legendary  .54-mile  oval  of  Salem  Speedway  in  Southern  Indiana,  the  ASA
Racing Series is set to attack the high-banked oval on Saturday, October 4, for
the Pep Boys 300 presented by Greased Lightning Orange Blast. This marks
the  third  trip  to  the  state  of  Indiana  in  2003  and  the  39th  showing  at  Salem
Speedway.

Pep Boys is a prominent retailer of Greased Lightning Orange Blast Products.

Without a doubt, Pep Boys is the broadest provider of customer satisfaction in
the  automotive  aftermarket  and  will  continue  to  be  a  strong,  national  company
with  a  bright  future.  No  other  known  company  can  satisfy  the  automotive
aftermarket   in   its   entirety   like   Pep   Boys.   Do-it-yourself,   do-it-for-me   and
professional  installers  have  come  to  rely  on  Pep  Boys  for  high-quality,  name-
brands, low prices, convenience and un-matched service. Throughout its history,
one  thing  has  remained  unchanged:  Pep  Boys  continues  to  focus  on  each
customer as if the company had only one store.

Out  of  the  five-year  plan  came  improvements  that  contributed  greatly  to  Pep
Boys'  nationwide  success. The automotive Supercenter was born. Advances in
computerization, store layout and services created a true one-stop shop to take
full   advantage   of   the   synergy   between   the   retail   and   service   centers.  An
expanded  selection  of  national  brands  was  offered  to  enable  Pep  Boys  to
compete on any level by offering the largest and most comprehensive selection
of premium parts and accessories.

Pep  Boys  operates  more  than  6,500  service  centers  across  the  nation.  For
