Six More DORAN JE4s to be Produced This Year

LEBANON, Ohio, March 9 - Due to the DORAN JE4's resounding success as the
championship-winning Daytona Prototype for 2003 and its one-two class finish in
this year's Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona, team owners are clamoring for the car,
designed and produced by Doran Designs.  To meet the demand, company head
Kevin Doran announced today that Doran Designs will produce six more brand-new
DORAN JE4s in calendar year 2004. 

"The first of the six is scheduled to be available June 1, and then another
one will be available every six weeks through the rest of the year," Doran said.

Team owners who wish to purchase one of the cars are urged to contact the
company now to place their orders so they aren't disappointed later in the season.

One of the many outstanding features of the DORAN JE4's design is that many
of its components can be easily replaced and/or repaired, although of course
the severity of an accident has to be taken into account.  Doran said that the
damage to the Doran-Lista DORAN JE4 Lexus #27 which occurred at Homestead while
it was going for the lead late in the race was minimal, with just the upper
rear wishbone, the upper rear A frame and two outer rim housings needing to be
replaced.

The team's next race is April 8-10 at Phoenix International Raceway, near
lead driver Didier Theys' home in Scottsdale, Ariz.

In other team news, Anne Smagorinsky, the marketing communications manager
for Lista International, said that the Rolex 24 cabinet promotion was very well
received, with over 900 entrants.  Both Lista and Doran-Lista Racing would
like to thank everyone who participated, including all the entrants, the
journalists who covered the story, and the SPEED TV crew which was such an integral
part of its success.

The grand-prize winner of the mobile cabinet was Robert Graham of Richmond,
Va.

As an added bonus, 50 runners-up received Lista racing calendars.  All the
entrants also received an offer to purchase the same cabinet at a special
discounted price.
