Engineering called "Sonic Racing Products". The new Sonic line has the same
dependability and quality that you expect from Tilton but at a more affordable
price. It is intended for short-oval track racing, where shifting is normally
not required once the cars reach racing speeds (not for use with road racers or
applications requiring a lot of shifting).

| CV Products and Goodyear Lead Approval of Multi-Rib
(serpentine)Belts for NASCAR |

 CV
Products is proud to jointly announce with the Goodyear Belt &Hose Corp.
that multi-rib drive system belts (more commonly referred to as
serpentine-style), including the Goodyear "Poly-V" Gatorback™ belt, have been
approved by NASCAR for use in all three professional classes in 2002-including
the Winston Cup, Busch and Truck Series. CV Products already offers an
extensive line of S-Drive™ serpentine pulleys and drive systems for GM, Ford
and Dodge engine applications. Ongoing development in response to the rule
change should result in a variety of new drive components becoming available
for the 2002 racing season.
According to the CV engineering department, "This development reaffirms CV
Products's role as one of the leaders in drive system technology for the racing
industry. We're excited about this news because similar CV Products systems
have been run in the Busch, Truck, ARCA and Hooters ProCup Series for two
years, and NASCAR has taken the steps to standardize what their series may run.
While the traditional v-belt continues to be an excellent choice for many
racing series, CV and Goodyear™ have been developing and pursuing approval of
Goodyear's Poly-V Gatorback™ poly-v belt for over two years for several
reasons, including increased reliability and reduced cost. Our customers,the
NASCAR engine builders,were also overwhelmingly in favor of such a change."
The rules regarding drive systems will basically remain the same with the
exception of the allowance of multi-rib belts. While other racing series
including ARCA and ProCup already allow for a true serpentine configuration
utilizing a single belt, NASCAR will require a standard rotation water pump for
the immediate future and NOT allow idlers, thus necessitating more than one
belt. CV Products recommends genuine Goodyear™ belts for all S-Drive™ and
V-Drive™ pulleys and drive systems.

fittings still incorporate the same advantages as before, including a fire
retardant Nomex® cover and Aeroquip ’s patented AQP® elastomer tube.It'’s also
up to 45% lighter than comparable braided steel hose assemblies and the Nomex®
cover eliminates the need for fire sleeves often needed on conventional braided
hoses.
