WHAT: Round 7 of the 2000 Barber Dodge Pro Series

WHEN: Qualifying: Fri., Aug 11, 1:45 p.m. (30 min.); Final Qualifying: Sat., Aug. 11, 1:00 p.m. (30 min.); RACE START: SUN., 4:30 p.m. 40 MINUTES

WHERE: Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, Lexington, Ohio

WHO: Twenty-eight drivers from six different countries (entry list attached)

T.V: Thursday Aug. 31, 6:30 p.m. EDT on ESPN2

Drivers who have used the Barber Pro Series as a steppingstone into the world of top level auto racing include: 1999 Indianapolis 500 winner and current CART driver Kenny Brack; 1999 CART PPG Cup Champion and 2000 Indy 500 winner Juan Montoya; seven of the drivers in the current CART Dayton Indy Lights Series field.

All drivers compete in identically prepared single-seat, open-wheel race cars which are owned, maintained and transported by the Barber Dodge Pro Series.

In 1998, world famous racecar manufacturer Reynard Motorsport, was called upon to design an all new carbon-fiber monocoque chassis exclusively for the series. That chassis is mated to an all aluminum 3.5 liter V6 Dodge engine tuned to deliver 265 peak horsepower driven through a six-speed sequential Hewland gearbox. The Reynard Dodge 98E is shod with Michelin Pilot SX racing slicks, marking the French tire giant's competitive North American open-wheel debut.

Races are 40 minutes in duration with points allocated to the top-15 finishers (20 to the winner, then 16-14-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1). A driver's ten best results count toward the championship total. An additional point is awarded to the fastest qualifier.

All 12 rounds of the 2000 Barber Dodge Pro Series will again be televised on espn2 as well as ESPN International.
