Woodhouse Performance Returns To SPEED GT With Courtney And Dodge Viper

BLAIR, Neb. (Feb. 26, 2008) ? Woodhouse Performance is happy to announce its
return to the SCCA Pro Racing SPEED World Challenge GT Championship with driver Jeff
Courtney. Following a strong seventh-place finish in the 2007 points, Courtney is back
to pilot the No. 99 Dodge Viper.

?We will again have Kenda Tires, MPI Coin, TJM Integrated Wealth Management and
Badger Components as our primary sponsors for the No. 99 car,? team owner Bob
Woodhouse said. ?It?s great to have them back, as well as JG Wheels, Foerster Signs,
Karavan Trailers, Eibach Springs and Kicker all supporting the team from last year.?

?2007 was a great year for Woodhouse Performance and it is exciting to be back in
2008,? Courtney said. ?We have created some dynamic team synergy that I look
forward to refining this year. We intend to prove the viability of the Dodge Viper in this
series, while several other teams from last year have now opted for other cars.?

?We are looking to announce Jeff?s teammate in the No. 13 Viper very soon,? added
Woodhouse, who has been a steady fixture and a paddock favorite with his flashy cars,
love for the sport and sense of humor. ?Jeff was a great addition to the team last year
with his patient driving style and strong pushes in the fourth quarter of every race. He
keeps us in contention and we are convinced the best is yet to come with Jeff.?

Although Courtney was new to SPEED GT in 2007, his seventh place points finish came
on the heels of his 2006 SPEED Touring Car Rookie of the Year title. In the off-season
his tires have been anything but cool, as he has been busy with performance testing
and recently placed second in the Koni Challenge race at Daytona, Fla., Jan. 24-25.

SPEED GT is revving up for its first standing start March 14-16 at Sebring International
Raceway, with Round Two scheduled for the Grand Prix of Long Beach, April 18-20.

Woodhouse Performance is a two-car race team competing in the SCCA Pro Racing

season of competition in the road-racing series with the Dodge Viper
Competition Coupe. After consistent 2006 and 2007 seasons which resulted in a
podium and many top 10 finishes, Woodhouse Performance will move into 2008 with
the No. 99 Kenda Tires/ProMPI Dodge Viper and the No. 13 Kicker/Woodhouse
