    McMillen Continues Quest In Canada

    June 6, 2005

    Elkhart, IN - Terry McMillen and his Amalie Oil InstiGator Funny
    car, powered by TORCO Racing Fuels, race into Grand Bend, Ontario Canada
    for the fourth stop on the Hooters IHRA Drag Racing series. Currently
    third in points and trailing second by just 26 points, McMillen takes
    his career best start and his InstiGator team to Canada as they continue
    their quest towards the IHRA Funny Car Championship and the team's first
    Iron Man.

    With two final round appearances in the first 3 races things
    look promising for the team. "We've enjoyed the journey so far,"
    explained McMillen. "We've been successful in getting to the final round
    and we're thankful for it. But, we're getting into the 'heart' of the
    season. These next few races will set the tone for the rest of the year
    - we plan on being right in the middle of it."

    The InstiGator team is associated with high performance
    partners, including: Amalie Oil, TORCO Racing Fuels, Flatout Gaskets,
    NGK Spark Plugs, MSD, Performance Graphics, Powershield Coatings and
    Crane Cams. Rhonda McMillen, team co-owner, commented, "We've had a lot
    of great exposure for our team and our partners so far this year, it's
    exciting to be in the race for the championship."

    The Grand Bend Motorplex is home track for two-time IHRA
    champion Rob Atchison and will prove to be a challenge for the
    InstiGator team. Terry commented, "Anytime that you have to go a drivers
    home track and take a win from him, it's going to be tough, but this
    Gator is hungry. We've had a chance to face Rob twice in the finals and
    if we earn the opportunity to face him again in Grand Bend it will be a
    great show for the fans."
