Time and date listing information available at www.speedtv.com Start Order & Late Breaking News: SCCA® ProRallysm Championship Round 2 - Rim of the World PALMDALE, California- A record starting lineup of 80 performance rally cars (with a waiting list) from North America and the world are slated to begin the two-day Rim of the World Rally at 7:00 PM Friday evening, following an open to the public Parc Expose of all the rally cars at the Peloma Park in Palmdale. The rally cars return to Palmdale after midnight, and restart the second day of rallying at noon on Saturday, following a morning of rally festivities including a charity auction and second Parc Expose of all the cars entered. Selected Entries, News · The long break since Round 1 in January has been very well spent by many of the teams in preparation of the brutal mid-season schedule with the SCCA ProRally Championship making up for lost time in the spring with five back-to-back events with transcontinental trips between most in July and August (Pikes Peak, Oregon Trail, Maine Forest, Ojibwe Forests and Wild West). Rim of the World, by virtue of its one-month break before Round 3 - Susquehannock Trail in June, is serving up its famously brutal road conditions as a shake down for the rest of the Championship. If a car survives here, it's likely to have the mettle to survive the rest of the season. · Subaru/Prodrive, coming off a character building 2002, and a disastrous season start at Sno*Drift, needs a great weekend here to kick start their program - and are poised to do just that with all-new cars and a substantially revised servicing layout. The cars that are making their world competition debut today did well in this week's extensive testing, with nary a hint of the engine and transmission troubles that plagued the team throughout the 2002 season, allowing Prodrive's technicians to focus on suspension setup for the best compromise on Rim's rough roads. The 2001 driver/co-driver champion team of Mark Lovell and Steve Turvey, reunited here this weekend, finished 2nd at Rim last year, following a dramatic downhill roll-over on Day One which left the car a wrinkled mess, but sharpened their resolve for a strong finish. Teammate Ramana Lagemann with Michael Orr, following his successful World Rally debut at New Zealand in April, are ready for a strong finish as well. · Mitsubishi also had a difficult showing here last year, but is on a roll with their all-new Lancer Evolutions, leading the manufacturers' and driver's championships. This will be their first time up against the all-new Subarus, and if they are quick out of the box, a two-day long sprint race can be expected. Both drivers have a great leading hand here - David Higgins won here last year in his debut at Rim, and teammate Lauchlin O'Sullivan returns to his home event; last year he was the top finishing two-wheel drive car, winning his class for Mitsubishi, finishing12th overall. · Group N will be one of the supporting classes to watch this weekend. The closely-matched all-wheel drive and turbocharged Subarus and Mitsubishis, are only allowed minimal modifications from showroom stock condition, making them ideal for Rim's tight, twisty ridge-top roads. The teams are from all over the USA, with class leaders Mark Utecht and Jeff Secor from Minnesota, Shane Mitchell and Paul Donnelly from New York, Mark Cox and Jim Gill from Colorado, and making his season debut, Newport Beach, CA native Ralph Kosmides with Michigan's Jimmy Brandt. · Weather forecast: the conditions this weekend are a nearly 180-degree switch from last year, when tinder dry conditions were the greatest concern. Ample rains in the past weeks have turned the typically grey mountains a lush green, and dust, at least for the first cars on the road, will be minimal. Rain remains in the forecast for much of the weekend, but now only scattered showers with cool daytime and chilly evening temperatures are expected.

Time and date listing information available at www.speedtv.com SCCA ProRally Championship - Round 2 - Rim of the World David Higgins Leads a Soggy Rally - Day One Results and News PALMDALE, California - Defending event and SCCA ProRally Drivers' Champion David Higgins jumped ahead of both Mark Lovell and Ramana Lagemann in the late stages of Day One of the 20th Rim of the World Rally, Round Two of the SCCA ProRally Championship. Unusual for Southern California cold and wet conditions existed throughout the evening and night stages, eliminating the traditional high dust problems typically encountered along the ridge-top roads of the Angeles National Forest. Key Notes & Quotes: Arriving at the Pelona Park Service in third place following the opening three stages, Higgins and co-driver Daniel Barritt stepped up their assault on the leading Subaru WRX of Mark Lovell. The 2002 champions were lightning-quick in stages four and five placing his Mitsubishi Rally Team USA Lancer Evolution into the overall lead by 0.78-minute over early leader Mark Lovell. "We ran well the last two stages," said Higgins. "The weather conditions never got any better. In the last stage, it was more slippery than Sno*Drift. They were so disgusting that we're just looking forward to tomorrow." Subaru Rally Team USA driver Lovell led the rally into the service break through three stages that included rain, fog and rough terrain, but he fell behind in his Subaru WRX in the fourth and fifth stages to Higgins. Lovell's teammate Lagemann was second going into stage four, but became high-centered on a berm and lost 10 minutes to leader Higgins while fellow Subaru WRX driver Jonny Milner towed him out Lagemann's car required minor repairs to the rear suspension and bodywork, but was able to continue on. 2002 Group 2 Manufacturers' and Drivers' Champion Lauchlin O'Sullivan, this time running his home rally in an Open Class Evolution for Mitsubishi Rally Team USA, finished a strong third with substitute co-driver Christian Edstrom. Leon Styles, driving an independently-entered Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, was consistently quick and was fourth after the first stage, followed by George Plsek in a similarly-prepared Lancer Evolution VI. Despite the excessively slippy conditions the rains brought, there were some entrants who gained significant road position throughout the evening. Hard Chargers of the night included Eric MaCaire and Urmas Kask, who started the rally in 30th position, and finished Day One in 12th overall, (leading the Production GT class) and Charlie Aoun and Paul Nelson, who started 52nd and finished in 23rd, good enough for 2nd place overall in the popular Group 2 Class. The hotly contested Group N category lists Shane Mitchell's Subaru WRX leading after five stages. Championship points leader Mark Utecht slid to third place following a common Rim of the World malady - a car-sick co-driver. Group 5 had the highest attrition of the evening, (Streets, Havas and Olson retiring) and class leader Doug Shepherd (Dodge SRT 4) nearly ended his evening, recovering from a dramatic downhill rollover in SS 3. The final 10 stages of the 2003 Rim of the World SCCA ProRally event will begin Saturday at Noon . For more information, please visit www.scca.com or www.rimoftheworldrally.com.

Time and date listing information available at www.speedtv.com SCCA® ProRallysm Championship - Round 2 - Rim of the World Day Two Results and News Higgins, Mitsubishi Dominate Rain Shortened Rally PALMDALE, Calif. - For the second time in as many events, weather was the major story of the SCCA ProRally Championship, the torrential rains and sloppy road conditions playing well into the hands of the 2002 Driver's champion's experience from his Welsh homeland. David Higgins, along with co-driver, Daniel Barritt, took the win in their Mitsubishi Rally Team USA Lancer Evolution. Former series Champion Mark Lovell and co-driver Steve Turvey finished second in Subaru Rally Team USA's all new WRX. Key Notes & Quotes: "This is the one that every one wants to win-it's a little more special because all the manufacturers are out here," said Higgins, who started off his 2002 Championship run by winning the first four events. "There is a lot of hospitality with lots of guests, so it's good to win for Mitsubishi at Rim of the World. It's also great to have my teammate get his first podium finish with the team. It's a shame that the event was cut short, since the last stage was the best one-you could really attack it." "I couldn't picture the weather ever being like this," said Mitsubishi Rally Team USA teammate and Californian O'Sullivan, who finished fourth at Sno*Drift. "My experience and knowledge of rallying really helped me back off and finish third." After initial stages Friday night run in damp conditions with numerous patches of thick fog; heavy rain set in prior to the Saturday stages, creating soft, muddy conditions on the remaining 10 special stages of the 15-stage event. After evaluating the route, the promoter elected to run only three special stages on Saturday. "The Rim of the World organizer has been faced with some extraordinary challenges and has made sound decisions based on the environmental conditions," said Kurt Spitzner, SCCA Performance Rally Director. The only stages run Saturday were at Del Sur North, Del Sur South and Leona Ridge. After the initial three stages, things looked great for Subaru's debut of its new 2004 Impreza WRX, with Lovell leading teammate Ramana Lagemann. Subaru's fortunes began to soften late in Day One, when Lagemann high-centered on a berm and lost a full 10 minutes to Higgins, who snatched the lead from Lovell. "We were caught off-guard by the weather conditions," said Lovell. "We had a great car for dry conditions, but we made the wrong tire choice and it cost us. You'd think of all teams, we, being from England, would be prepared for these conditions, but we weren't." In a great drive in an independently-entered Mitsubishi Evo VI, independent Leon Styles finished a career-best fourth overall. "The race played into my hands," said Styles. "I like wet roads and these fit my style. We never did anything wrong." Shane Mitchell and Paul Donnelly finished fifth overall and first in Group N in their AV Sport/Piermont Iron Works Subaru WRX, significantly tightening the emerging championship battle with points leader Mark Utecht. 2002 Group N Champions Ralph Kosmides & Jimmy Brandt made their season debut this weekend, and drove a smartly paced event, keeping the pressure on both Mitchell and points leader Utecht, setting the stage for an intense mid-season sprint. The Manufacturer's Championships: Subaru earned its first championship points this weekend, with Lovell's strong second place serving notice to Mitsubishi that it cant let its guard down. In two-wheel drive, Eric Burmeister gets Mazda on the board, and Christopher Whiteman became Dodge's breadwinner, with Doug Shepherd's last minute DNF (broken halfshaft at the start line of final stage) scotching their plans for a 2WD overall win with the powerful Group 5 SRT-4. The SCCA ProRally Championship switches coasts for Round 3, heading to the lush eastern forests in the Endless Mountains of north central Pennsylvania for the oldest and fastest rally in the series - the Susquehannock Trail Rally, on June 7.Rim of the World - SCCA ProRally Championship - Round 2 02-03 May, 2003 Complete Leg Two / Final Finish Order (Official) times are in hours: minutes: seconds Start Finish Car# Time Class Driver Name Co-Driver Car 4 1 1 1:27:34 Open David Higgins Daniel Barritt 03 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 1 2 4 1:30:26 Open Mark Lovell Steve Turvey 04 Subaru WRX 6 3 6 1:34:01 Open Lauchlin O'Sullivan Christian Edstrom 03 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 15 4 374 1:36:06 Open Leon Styles John Dillon 99 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI 2 5 29 1:37:49 Open Tim O'Neil Alex Gelsomino 03 Ford Focus SVT 5 6 5 1:39:40 Open Ramana Lagemann Michael Orr 04 Subaru WRX 8 7 45 1:40:24 N Shane Mitchell Paul Donnelly 02 Subaru WRX 18 8 30 1:40:33 Open George Plsek Jeffrey Burmeister 00 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI 14 9 88 1:41:02 Open Doug Havir Scott Putnam 02 Subaru WRX 3 10 15 1:41:11 Open Jonny Milner Duncan McMath 02 Subaru WRX 10 11 83 1:42:50 N Mark Utecht Jeff Secor 02 Subaru WRX 11 12 22 1:43:50 N Ralph Kosmides Jimmy Brandt 00 Subaru WRX STi 17 13 89 1:46:15 N Wolfgang Hoeck Julie Lin 02 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VII 30 14 68 1:47:55 PGT Eric MaCaire Urmas Kask 02 Audi TT 22 15 266 1:48:41 G2 Scott Fuller Jeff Call 96 VW Golf GTi 21 16 376 1:50:24 Open Julian Masters Mustafa Samli 99 Mitsubishi Mirage 33 17 143 1:52:46 G2 Chris Whiteman Michael Paulin 03 Dodge Neon SXT 17 18 301 1:53:14 Open Tony Chavez Ken Cassidy 92 Mitsubishi Galant VR4 38 19 60 1:53:15 PGT Bruce Davis Lee Sorenson 92 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX 523 20 36 1:55:59 N Mark Cox Jim Gill 00 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI 16 21 94 1:56:22 N Craig Peeper Ian Bevan 02 Subaru WRX 34 22 215 1:58:39 PGT Jamie Thomas Matt Gauger 02 Subaru WRX 36 23 96 2:01:00 G2 Brian Scott David Hackett 03 Ford Focus SVT 43 24 912 2:02:16 Open John Cassidy David Getchell 00 Subaru Impreza 48 25 321 2:07:38 G5 Murat Okcuoglu Hakan Ocuoglu 87 Mitsubishi Starion 54 26 221 2:22:04 P Trevor Donison David Weiman 03 Acura RSX type S 26 27 42 2:29:53 G2 Eric Burmeister Joe Andreini 02 Mazda Protégé MP3 Leading Day One ProRally Retirements - official Start Car# Class Driver Co-Driver Year Mfg Stage Reason 28 51 G5 Jay Streets Ole Holter 83 Volvo SS1 Undisclosed mechanical 22 62 G5 Chris Havas David Kean 02 VW SS4 Driveshaft 25 28 G2 Bill Malik Amity Trowbridge 93 Volvo SS4 Transmission linkage 9 102 Open Scott Trinder Bob Trinder 00 Subaru SS4 Electrical Leading Day Two ProRally Retirements - official Start Car# Class Driver Co-Driver Year Mfg Stage Reason 12 52 G5 Doug Shepherd Peter Gladysz 04 Dodge SS8 Halfshaft 36 86 P Michael Halley Bill Montgomery 00 VW SS8 Motor 7 23 Open Mark Nelson Charles Bradley 02 Subaru SS6 Undisclosed mechanical 52 345 G2 Charles Aoun Paul Nelson 88 VW SS8 Undisclosed mechanical 31 93 G5 Robert Olson Conrad Ketelsen 89 Porsche SS8 Undisclosed mechanical The SCCA name and logo is a registered trademark of the Sports Car Club of America, Inc.
