         Comedy Legends Smothers Brothers Named
          Grand Marshalls for Dodge/Save Mart 350

       SONOMA, Calif. (IMMEDIATE RELASE) - Comedy legends, the Smothers
Brothers, have been named Grand Marshalls for the Dodge/Save Mart 350 NASCAR
NEXTEL Cup weekend at Infineon Raceway, June 25-27.

       Tom and Dick Smothers, who hosted their own primetime comedy series for more
than four decades, have appeared on numerous television shows and were recently
inducted into the Hollywood Bowl of Fame. They were also named one of the 50 top
icons by CBS-TV.

       "I'm really excited to be Grand Marshall with Tom at the Dodge/Save Mart 350,"
said Dick Smothers. "Coming to Infineon Raceway brings back wonderful memories of
my racing days.  I raced there twice and this will be like a homecoming."

       "As a longtime resident of the Sonoma Valley and a winery owner, I'm really
excited about being the Grand Marshall," added Tom Smothers. "Plus, Dick says it's
much more exciting than being Grand Marshall at the annual Asparagus Festival in
Salinas in 1972."

       The duo was honored with the 2003 Freedom of Expression Award and received
honorary doctorate degrees from their alma mater, San Jose State University. Tom and
Dick will be honored during race weekend at the annual Grand Marshall's Banquet,
presented by The Raceway Builders, on Friday, June 25, at beautiful Cline Cellars in
Sonoma.

       Tom, wife Marcy and their children are long-time residents of the Sonoma Valley
and also owners of Remick Ridge Vineyards and Smothers Winery in Kenwood.
