LAKEVILLE, Ct. (May 26, 2004)

The SPEED World Challenge GT series will anchor the Mohegan Sun Grand Prix portion of the weekend continuing a Memorial Day tradition that stretches back more than 30 years.

The 1.53 mile track situated on 325 acres winds through the beautiful countryside in Northwestern Connecticut, perfect quattro country for the Audi RS 6.

Champion Racing (Pompano Beach, FL) has been working consistently on the cars since the first race in mid March. Michael Galati will endeavor to continue with a podium finish as he did at Sebring while Randy Pobst hopes to have better luck with his #1 Audi RS 6.

Randy Pobst (Gainesville, GA). "The competition has had some rule adjustments applied after the Sebring race so I am anxious to get back in the Certified Audi and see how we do. I expect the racing to be better but we won't know until the lights go out on the standing start at Lime Rock. New England is quattro country so it's great to be up here this weekend. I need to make a big comeback from Sebring so I hope it rains!"

Michael Galati (Olmstead, OH). "I feel pretty good about this weekend. This is a good track for the RS 6, even better if it rains! I'm excited to be back racing after the long 2 month break. I want to continue my podium finishes."

The SCCA SPEED World Challenge season will make its second standing start of 2004 at Lime Rock Park on Monday, May 31st at 12:10 p.m. EDT.
