TRIMSPA® Saves The Day for Stock Car Sweetheart Leilani Münter: The race will go on for Münter this Saturday at Kentucky Speedway

Cedar Knolls, NJ September 18, 2004 -— TRIMSPA, sponsor of the #32 Dodge in the Busch series, announced today that it is sponsoring Leilani Münter in the NASCAR Autozone Elite Division Southeast Series "Kentucky 100" at Kentucky Speedway. Münter will in the #32 TRIMSPA Pontiac when the Green flag flies this Saturday, September 18 at 6:00 pm.

"At the last minute my sponsor backed out," said Münter "TRIMSPA stepped in and literally saved the day. I wouldn't have been able to race this weekend if it weren't for them. It's going to be a great race this weekend, and it's all because of TRIMSPA."

This weekend will mark the second time in Münter's career that she will be a part of a super late model race. Her first super late model race was in June at Texas Motor Speedway, where she was 6th fastest of 26 cars in practice, started 4th and finished 7th in the last lap and closing.

"We were so happy to step in and help Leilani with this race," said Alex Goen CEO and Founder of TRIMSPA. "She's powerful, confident, and sexy. She's the epitome of what TRIMSPA is all about."

A native of Rochester, Minn., Münter began racing while earning a degree in Biology from the University of California San Diego. Upon graduation, Leilani began working in the movies doing stunts, doubling, and stand-in work to pay for laps at the racetrack. She worked for actress Catherine Zeta-Jones in "Traffic" and "America's Sweethearts" and did stunts for Kelly Hu in "The Scorpion King."

In 2001, Leilani ran her first stock car race in the Allison Legacy Series, debuting with a seventh place finish. In 2002 Leilani relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina -- the stock car racing capital of the world. Since then Münter has surrounded herself with stock car racing – driving racecars whenever possible, working for race teams at the race shop and the track.

By 2003, Leilani had landed a major opportunity when she signed a multi-year driver development contract with Team Bristol Motorsports, home of the # 54 NASCAR Busch Series race team. She debuted in the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Racing Series late model division for Team Bristol Motorsports at South Boston Speedway with a ninth place finish.

In 2004, Münter will continue racing a late model stock car in the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series for new partner and sponsor, LesCare Kitchens, with the possibility to race NASCAR Busch Series North, ASA or ARCA events.

In addition to her success on the track, Leilani has also garnered widespread media coverage for her efforts as a relative newcomer to the sport. She has been named "America's Sexiest Race Car Driver" by Men's Journal magazine, "The Hottest Woman in NASCAR" by FHM and honored as a "Woman We Love" by Esquire. She has also been featured in ESPN and on the cover of Charlotte Magazine. For more on Münter, visit www.leilanimunter.com.
