MyGoKart.com Launches MarketPlace Version 3.0

8 September 2000

MyGoKart.com Launches MarketPlace Version 3.0
    SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 8 MyGoKart.com has launched
version 3 of "Marketplace" (a SpeedBuddyEngine(TM) suite product), providing
an instant B2B utility for sellers and buyers of high-performance auto parts.
The upgraded release will now contain new features, including customer
tracking and open view of all vendor quotes.
    "MarketPlace" version 3 is MyGoKart.com's latest update to the
SpeedBuddyEngine(TM) suite of internet plug-ins designed to enhance B2B
internet strategies.  New to version 3 are buyer tracking, seller quote
histories and instant email notification of quote activity.
    "Tracking history of all quote requests, and vendor quotes were a highly
sought after feature requested from the 'Marketplace' community," said
ISCCI.com Online Marketing Director Terrance Low.  "This added feature now
adds effective comparison shopping for both sellers and buyers."
    The growing buyers and sellers of performance parts enthusiasts have long
been neglected by the mainstream parts industry.  According to a SEMA report
earlier this year (March 31, 2000), the compact performance market drew in
$756 million (at retail level) in 1999, which was an increase of 152% from the
previous year.  Industries with such a sharp rise in spending seek the most
efficient technology to keep up with future growth statistics. MyGoKart.com's
"MarketPlace" joins these growing buyers and sellers, creating an automotive
portal haven for internet savvy enthusiasts.
    "The goal of version 3 is to streamline the buyer to seller process
online, capitalize on this growing performance parts market, and provide
proven B2B success," said ISCCI.com CEO Ken Hong.  "Vendors said they wanted
the latest and greatest in bargaining features and version 3 delivers it with
authority."
    Major features in "MarketPlace" include personalized account views, list
of in-demand products, and an automatic request/quote tracking for vendors and
buyers.  A "view all" display allows buyers to comparison shop from hundreds
of potential vendors while vendors submit quote requests at a fraction of
advertising/marketing costs.
    "MarketPlace" is part of the SBE suite of products developed to enhance
interactive websites.  SBE technology was created by developers at ISCCI.com
and is an integral part of the MyGoKart Network.  To see the "Marketplace"
