WATKINS GLEN INTERNATIONAL NASCAR/IMSA WEEKEND
featuring the Lysol 200 and Glen Continental

GLEN CONTINENTAL PRE-EVENT QUOTES

JAMES WEAVER(#16WSC Ford/Bosch/Hella Rain-X Ford R & S MK-3) --It's a fast
track and our car is good on all corners, particularly the fast corners. We've
got a lot of top end horsepower which will save us there.  The car is easy to
drive and it's brilliant over the bumps. I think for Watkins Glen, we really
have the best package.

BUTCH LEITZINGER (#16WSC Ford/Bosch/Hella/Rain-X Ford R & S MK-3 \\#95
Caterpillar Chevrolet) --  I think before I get into the car each practice
session, I'm going have to review the track in my mind and go over every gear
change just to make sure I don't get a sudden lapse and think I'm in the other
car. And then go into the braking marker another 100 feet deeper. I've done
that before and once you're in the car, everything becomes pretty second nature
to you. I'm going be hustling a lot trying to jump back and forth between the
teams but I'm really looking forward to it.

 (On the Ford R&S MK-3)  It's fantastic! The car really excels on the fast
turns. It's really a high downforce car and that's idea for here. The Glen is
pretty much forth and fifth gear turns the whole way. I think we're going to be
looking really good there.

ROB DYSON (#16WSC Ford/Bosch/Hella Rain-X Ford R & S MK-3) -- I think Watkins
Glen is a good course for us. I think the cars are proven that we can go
quickly on the short courses. At Road Atlanta, we should we could go quickly in
traffic and I think traffic will be a factor here.  I think that the overall
package is coming together. Remember that this will only be our fifth race with
the car so it's kind of ironic that everyone is expecting so much out of us and
it's only five races in. However, the car is good, the package is good, the
Ford V-8 engine is doing well. I think the Riley & Scott chassis grouped with
the Goodyear tires is going to be an excellent package.

IRV HOERR (#4GTS-1 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme) -- I'm looking forward to this
weekend, it seems like we always do well here. I like Watkins Glen because it's
such a nice area. But, the three hour races are probably my favorite races in
the IMSA schedule. It gives our crew a chance to do their job and they do a
really good job. So I think it gives us an advantage and I also think that the
Aurora V-8, if there is any race track in the series where we can really take
advantage of that engine, it's going to be Watkins Glen.~

DARIN BRASSFIELD (#5GTS-1 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme) -- I always look forward
to coming back to Watkins Glen. I think it's a proper race track. As far as
being a driver, it's always been of my favorite ones. I've always done
extremely well here. We had a little bad luck there last year. I thought we had
a car that was capable of winning overall.  We were a little bit quicker than
Irv but we had a fluke problem with some lug nuts last year, they just kept
coming loose.  We had to go to the pits several times unexpectedly, but this
year the cars have just been fabulous. The engine, the new Aurora V8 engine is
just excellent. It's probably the best engine that I've ever driven in a race
car. And the chassis this year are just working excellent. I think for me the
team, at least for me, I think being with this team for a long time, this Brix
team has really come together in the last month.

JOHNNY O'CONNELL (#75GTS-1 Nissan 300ZX) -- The championship for us is going to
be a tough one to pull off.  The Brix team has come into this year really
tough.  There's a lot of responsibility for us to give everything that we have,
again it's going to be a challenge.  We've had a lot of difficult things happen
to us this year.  It's been up-and-down, up-and-down.  But the last one was
down, so this weekend should be up.

PATRICK TAMBAY (#01GTS-1 Bugatti EB110 SC) -- I'm going to check to see if it
is the same as it was in 1980.  It probably is, but I'm not.  I believe the
track is the same.  Basically we're going to be working on the car, since it is
the first time out.  We've only had four days testing in Italy with Gildo
(Pallanca-Pastor), so it's going to be a lot of things to learn again in a very
short amount of time.

GILDO PALLANCA-PASTOR (#01GTS-1 Bugatti EB110 SC) -- The '95 season for us is
going to be a test run, especially Watkins Glen.  This is the first time the
car is going to race, so we have a lot of things to learn.  We are here to
finish the race and get the maximum points.

GIANPIERO MORETTI (#30WSC Momo/Danka Industries/Konica Business Machines,
U.S.A. Ferrari 333SP) -- My first race in the States was with a Ferrari, that
was only twenty-five years ago.  Finally with Piero Ferrari I was able to
convince him to build this car and now I'm very happy to race with Ferrari
again in the States.  I started racing when I was 21, now I'm 55.  I believe
that after 35 years I should stop, but I have an agreement with Piero that I
will do all the long races -- Daytona, Sebring, Le Mans and Suzuka.  So that is
my schedule for next year.  So I'm very sorry, I'll probably not be here in
Watkins Glen again.
