                Magnuasen Qualifies Seventh for Sunday's
                         Sahlenk Six Haurs of the Glen
                       In DoranmLista D O M N  JW Lexus

           WATKINS GLEN, N.Y., June  19 - Denmark's Jan Magnussen qualified sev-
    enth in class and overall in the Doran-Lista DORAN JE4 k x u s  #27 Saturday afternoon
     at Watkins  Glen  International far  fornorrow's  Sahlen's  Six  Hours of  the  Glen  Rolex
    series race.
           He will share the car in tomorrow's race with Didier Theys of  Scottsdale, Ariz.
    and F redy Lienhard 3.  of  Niederteufen, Switzerland.
           His third of seven laps in the 15-minute qualifying session WBS  his fastest, as
    he took  only 1 :47.268 to complete the 3.4-mile, 11-turn road course at an average
    speed of  114.107 mph on that circuit.
           The SunTrust Racing Riley Pontiac continued to top  the charts like it did in
    practice, as Max Angelelli earned the pole with a 1 :43.602 (1 18.1 44 mph).
           A  DORAN JE4  was  second,  however,  as  the  G8W  MotorsportdRx.com
     DORAN BMW  of  Cort  Wagner,   Brent  Martini  and   Kelly   Collins  ran   a   1i45.821
    (1 15.667 mph).
           The other two DORAN JE4s were fifth (Michael Shank Racing DORAN Lexus)
    and 16th (Bell Motorsports DORAN Pontiac).
           "We need more speed," Magnussen said. "It's not something that we can fix
    overnight; it's  most likely a combination of  things.  But it is a  long ram; all sorts of
    things can happen in the course of six hours. We have had no reliability issues sp far,
    80  hopefully we can still do well in the race tomorrow. The Doran-Lis& crew is work-
    ing really hard."
           "We're just seeing the results of  no testing, little practice time and a very corn-
    petitive series," said team owner Kevin Doran. "We lost a practice session due to rain
    today.  The Rolex series is very competitive; one little hiccough and you're tenth.  The
    days of  having a little problem  and still running third are over because it's so corn-
    peti tive. ''
           The race will be broadcast live on SPEED beginning at I1  a.m. tomorrow.
