ACP in U.S. championship lead as X Games invitations are decided

WELLSBORO, PA (June 9, 2008) - Rally driver Andrew "ACP" Comrie-Picard is in
the lead of the Rally America championship and will be making a return trip
to the X Games -- despite a tough weekend in Pennsylvania at Round 5.

The notoriously brutal event ended early for Team ACP Rally after a plastic
fan plug came loose on an unexpectedly rough landing early in the contest
and the engine began to overheat. The service crew quickly diagnosed and
repaired the problem, but the stress on the finely tuned motor was too great
and, on Day 2, it blew.

"It's frustrating; just bad luck cost us a finish here," said Comrie-Picard.
"But this is a rally that was difficult for everybody, so we're still
leading the standings."

Comrie-Picard's main points rivals, the factory-backed Subaru Rally Team
USA, didn't have an easy weekend either. The debut of their new competition
cars ended in a pair of DNFs.

As a result, the top three positions in the Rally America championship
remain unchanged: Comrie-Picard leads Subaru Rally Team USA's Travis
Pastrana by one point. Subaru Rally Team USA's Ken Block is another two
points behind him.

"Rally car racing is one of the toughest motorsports there is," said
Comrie-Picard. "Every team has its share of difficulty in a season and now
we've had ours. We'll be back on the podium at the next rally."

The top drivers after this event are to receive an invitation to the
high-profile X Games in Los Angeles this summer. It will be a third trip to
the X Games for ACP.

"We're thrilled to be returning to Los Angeles this summer; the crowds, the
energy, the crazy jumps. There's nothing else like it in the world," said
Comrie-Picard.

The annual X Games is the premier action sports event on the globe,
featuring athletes competing for medals and prize money in sports including
BMX Freestyle, Moto X, Skateboard, Surfing and Rally. The rally car racing
event was added to the X Games in 2006, and Comrie-Picard has been among the
dozen invited drivers in each of the three years.

"Experience is really an asset at the X Games," said Comrie-Picard. "We've
learned a lot every year and we expect to put that to good use this summer."

This summer's X Games 14 will be telecast live on ESPN and ABC.

Rally racing is one of the most challenging motor sports and competitors are
widely considered the most skillful drivers in the world. Teams race against
the clock on variable terrain in modified cars that closely resemble those
that the average consumer can find at their local dealer. The sport requires
intense teamwork between driver and co-driver and extreme skill behind the
wheel.
