LEXINGTON, Ky. (Jan. 20, 2002) - The Valvoline Company has announced the winners of the 2002 Valvoline Cup national points championship presented
      by Campbell Hausfeld . 

Over 700 of the more than 84,000 competing drivers
      will be receiving awards for their season long accomplishments, with the
      awards going as far as thirtieth place in each class. Mark Cole from,
      LaVerqne, TN, finished 5th nationally in the Scaled Stock class.

      The 2002 Valvoline Cup, 2002 marked the inaugural season of a national
      championship that embraces all forms of motorsports competition among its
      31 classes. In order to compete, drivers simply registered at their local
      track for the program and then submitted their racing results after each
      racing event they competed in throughout the season. At the end of the
      racing season, each driver has been awarded points based on the best 15
      event finishes. Cole earned Valvoline Cup points in Regional competition.

      There are no Valvoline Cup program rules with respect to the cars, tracks
      and racing. Instead, the rules of the tracks and sanctioning organizations
      under which each driver competes govern that driver and the car. The
      Valvoline Cup measures the success of a driver within his or her racing
      program relative to the success of other drivers in similar cars within
      their program. The program has been presented without cost to drivers or
      tracks.

      Cole will share in a prize pool of over $500,000, which includes a
      combination of cash, Campbell Hausfeld equipment, Valvoline Racing
      products support package, product rebates, Campbell Hausfeld and Valvoline
      branded merchandise, Valvoline apparel and trophies.

      The Valvoline Cup is only the latest example of Valvoline's support of
      grassroots racers. Valvoline is a contingency sponsor in NHRA drag racing
      and for the past six years has been the No. 1 choice of motor oil by NHRA
      sportsmen-class racers at NHRA pro events. For the past 17 years,
      Valvoline has sponsored the national championships for the Sports Car Club
      of America, The SCCA Valvoline Runoffs®.
