SCCA, SCCA Pro Announce Staff Restructuring

Prill, Randall, Turner Have New Assignments; Mudd Resigns For Champ Car

TOPEKA, Kan. (Jan. 24, 2006) - Sports Car Club of America, Inc. and
subsidiary SCCA Pro Racing Ltd. have announced several title and
position changes in its operations, technical and marketing staffs. The
announcements come on the heels of the resignation of Vice President of
Marketing Garret Mudd, who has taken a position with Champ Car.

Effective immediately, three current staff members receive new titles,
including Eric Prill (SCCA/SCCA Pro Racing Director of Marketing
Communications), Lynda Randall (SCCA Pro Racing Director of Operations)
and Harry Turner (SCCA Pro Racing Senior Technical and Race Operations
Director).

"While it's never good to lose a quality member from your staff, when
someone is recruited away, it's generally a sign that the individual has
left your company in a better position than when they arrived," SCCA
Acting President Gary Pitts said. "Garret was SCCA's first-ever
marketing executive, and helped develop campaigns and marketing
initiatives that were not only new to SCCA, but quite effective. He also
had a major influence on SCCA Pro Racing and, in particular, SPEED World
Challenge.

"We have extreme confidence in the abilities of the remaining staff to
carry out the initiatives for 2006 as well as provide leadership for the
future. We're also confident that the remaining executive leadership
positions for both SCCA and SCCA Pro Racing will be filled soon."

Prill, the former Director of Communications, has accepted an expanded
role, absorbing many of the marketing components overseen by Mudd. In
addition to overseeing the Communications department, which handles
public and media relations as well as electronic and print
communications, he will now direct all marketing initiatives and
advertising campaigns.

Prill joined the SCCA Pro Racing staff in late 1996, shortly after
graduating from Miami University, and expanded his roles to include the
parent company in 2002.

Randall joined the SCCA Pro Racing staff in late 2004 as the Pro Racing
Manager. Her duties will expand as Director of Operations to oversee
business operations of the company, its in-house and sanctioned series.

An active member in the automotive industry for more than 20 years,
Randall came to the SCCA Pro Racing staff after a 10-year stint at Skip
Barber Racing Schools, where she was the National Purchasing Manager.

Formerly SCCA Pro Racing's Senior Technical Director, Turner will expand
his role in event operations in 2006 to become the primary point of
contact and liaison with event management and other sanctioning bodies
at SCCA Pro Racing races. This new role assumes many of the duties
performed on site by Mitch Wright, who was the company's VP and General
Manager through 2005. Turner will continue to oversee the SCCA Pro
Racing Technical staff on a day-to-day basis.

A member of the SCCA Pro Racing staff since the beginning of the 2005
season, Turner previously worked at General Motors for more than 30
years. He received his Mechanical Engineering degree from Illinois and
his MBA from Oakland University.

In the coming weeks, further announcements will be made regarding the
executive leadership of both companies.
