                    Grading Completed at Turns 1, 6
            on Road Course; New Bridges Coming Soon

       SONOMA, Calif. (IMMEDIATE RELEASE) - Construction crews have just
completed work on two critical areas of the road course designed to increase competitor safety at
Infineon Raceway.

       The hillsides at Turns 1 and 6 have been graded substantially, providing dramatically
increased runoff for competitors. There is now more than 120 feet of runoff at Turn 1, and 80
feet of runoff at Turn 6. The newly shaved slopes have been hydro-seeded to aid in erosion
control and stabilization.

       The old, wooden bridges at Turns 1 and 6 have also been removed and will be replaced
by bridges with a sturdy metal framework and ramps to provide easier fan access. The bridges
should be erected by March.

       The new Turn 1 bridge will be 70 feet longer and will be constructed approximately 100
feet closer to Turn 2. The new positioning will remove the bridge abutment from the runoff area.
The Turn 6 bridge, meanwhile, will continue to overlook the Carousel, however its abutment will
also be removed from the runoff area. Both redesigns will further enhance competitor safety.

       This marks the second major off-season project at Infineon Raceway as the road course
was repaved in August. As part of the repaving, more than 3,000 feet of French Edge Drains
were installed to keep water from draining under the track surface - the raceway is just 15 feet
above sea level. Curbing was also added at Turns 2, 6, 8 and 10. Portions of the road course that
were repaved included Turns 1-3, 6-8 and 11. Turns 4-5, 9-10, 12 and the Chute were repaved
prior to the 2003 season.
