ITEM 1: BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc. (the Company), through CART, Inc. its
then wholly-owned subsidiary, owned, operated and sanctioned through the 2003
season, the open-wheel motorsports series known in 2003 as the Bridgestone
Presents the Champ Car World Series Powered By Ford. CART, Inc. was responsible
for organizing, marketing and staging each of the races in the Champ Car World
Series.

In February 2004, we completed the sale of substantially all of our
operating assets to Open Wheel Racing Series, LLC., now Champ Car World Series,
LLC., (Open Wheel), most of our employees resigned and accepted employment with
OPEN WHEEL and we ceased operations. We cannot list here all the risks and
uncertainties that could cause our actual future financial results to differ
materially from our present expectations or projections regarding the estimated
distribution to shareholders, but we can identify many of them. These are set
forth in "Factors That May Affect Future Results."

On December 15, 2003, we announced that we had entered into an Asset
Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with OPEN WHEEL. The Agreement allowed OPEN
WHEEL to purchase the assets of CART, Inc. needed to operate the Champ Car World
Series and the stock of Pro-Motion Agency, Inc., our subsidiary that operates
the Toyota Atlantics series. In addition, OPEN WHEEL assumed from us and CART,
Inc. the rights and obligations under certain promoter, sponsor and other
contracts. OPEN WHEEL indicated that it intended to continue to operate the
Champ Car World Series and the Toyota Atlantic series. The total consideration
that would be paid under the agreement was $3.0 million less $1.5 million in
2003 prize money to teams who were not affiliated with OPEN WHEEL; which was an
obligation of CART, Inc. that was assumed by OPEN WHEEL.

On December 16, 2003, CART, Inc. filed a voluntary petition for relief
under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section in the
United States Bankruptcy Court Southern District of Indiana (In.re CART, Inc.,
Case No. 03-23385-FJO-11).

An Amendment by Interlineation (the "Amendment") with respect to the
Agreement was entered into on January 15, 2004 to reflect the change in
consideration and the assumption of certain claims.

Pursuant to a January 28, 2004, court order, on February 13, 2004, most of
the assets of CART, Inc., the stock of Promotion Agency, LTD., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, and CART Licensed Products, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of CART, Inc., were sold to OPEN WHEEL for total consideration of
$3.3 million in cash, the assumption by the buyer of $1.4 million in prize money
owed to teams not affiliated with the principals of OPEN WHEEL for the 2003 race
season, forgiveness of $1.3 million in prize money due teams affiliated with the
principals of OPEN WHEEL and the assumption of certain promoter, sponsor and
other contracts.

CART, Inc. operated as debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy
Code in order to wind up its affairs. On August 3, 2004, CART, Inc. filed CART's
Amended Chapter 11 Plan (the "Plan") and the Second Amended Disclosure Statement
For Amended Chapter 11 Plan Of CART, Inc. (the "Disclosure Statement") with the
Bankruptcy Court. The Plan provides for the distribution of the asset sale
proceeds and other currently available cash and the liquidation and distribution
of the remaining estate assets to CART, Inc.'s creditors. The Disclosure
Statement was approved as containing adequate information by the Bankruptcy
Court on August 3, 2004. The hearing on the confirmation of the plan was held on
September 13, 2004. On September 23, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered its
Findings Of Fact, Conclusions Of Law, And Order Under 11 U.S.C. Sections 1129(a)
And (b) And Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3020 Confirming CART's Amended Chapter 11 Plan.

Pursuant to the Plan on November 23, 2004, all remaining CART, Inc.,
assets and liabilities were transferred to the CART Liquidation Trust to be
held, pending allowance or disallowance of disputed claims, and distributed to
holders of allowed claims.

We currently intend to liquidate our remaining assets, pay off our
remaining liabilities, and complete the process of liquidation and winding up
the Company's affairs as soon as practicable. Our Board of Directors has not
adopted a plan of liquidation and dissolution at this time, but will consider
this option when the liquidation and bankruptcy of our former subsidiary, CART,
Inc., is complete and after approval by our shareholders. In the event that our
Board of Directors adopts a plan of liquidation and dissolution, we would expect
to incur liquidation expenses, in addition to payments of ongoing operating
expenses and settlement of existing or potential obligations. Liquidation
expenses may include, among others, employee salaries, severance and related
costs, legal and accounting fees, as well as payments to a liquidation trustee.
While we cannot currently make a precise estimate of the expenses, we believe
that a significant portion of our current cash may be required to pay the above
expenditures.

EMPLOYEES

As of March 31, 2005, we had two employees. In connection with our
intention to dissolve the Company in the future, we have retained these
employees for the purpose of executing the dissolution process, including
winding down the Company and Raceworks, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary.

ITEM 2: PROPERTIES

We have sublet our office space in Indianapolis, Indiana (approximately
64,000 square feet) to OPEN WHEEL on terms that are substantially the same as
our current lease. Annual lease payments under the obligation are $308,965.
Similarly, annual charges to OPEN WHEEL under the sublease are $308,965. We
remain liable on such lease, which has future lease payments as of March 31,
2005 of $1.7 million, and expires in October 31, 2010. We have retained office
space in this building, at no cost to us, for administrative purposes to execute
our plan to liquidate and dissolve our business.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On December 16, 2003, CART, Inc., the Company's wholly owned subsidiary,
filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United
States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division

Pursuant to a January 28, 2004, court order, on February 13, 2004, most of the
assets of CART, Inc., the stock of Promotion Agency, LTD., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, and CART Licensed Products, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of CART, Inc., were sold to OPEN WHEEL for total consideration of
$3.3 million in cash, the assumption by the buyer of $1.4 million in prize money
owed to teams not affiliated with the principals of OPEN WHEEL for the 2003 race
season, forgiveness of $1.3 million in prize money due teams affiliated with the
principals of OPEN WHEEL and the assumption of certain promoter, sponsor and
other contracts.

CART, Inc. operated as debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code in
order to wind up its affairs. On August 3, 2004 CART, Inc. filed CART's Amended
Chapter 11 Plan (the "Plan") and the Second Amended Disclosure Statement For
Amended Chapter 11 Plan Of CART, Inc. (the "Disclosure Statement") with the
Bankruptcy Court. The Plan provides for the distribution of the asset sale
proceeds and other currently available cash and the liquidation and distribution
of the remaining estate assets to CART, Inc.'s creditors. The Disclosure
Statement was approved as containing adequate information by the Bankruptcy
Court on August 3, 2004. The hearing on the confirmation of the plan was held on
September 13, 2004. On September 23, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered its
Findings Of Fact, Conclusions Of Law, And Order Under 11 U.S.C. Sections 1129(a)
And (b) And Fed. R. Bankr. P. 3020 Confirming CART's Amended Chapter 11 Plan.

Pursuant to the Plan on November 18, 2004, the Company cancelled its 50
shares of stock in CART for no consideration and all remaining CART, assets and
liabilities were transferred to the CART Liquidation Trust to be held, pending
allowance or disallowance of disputed claims, and distributed to holders of
allowed claims.

Based upon filings by creditors of CART, Inc., there are and may be
additional claims by creditors against CART, Inc. which have or may result in
litigation against CART, Inc. in Bankruptcy Court. The Company is currently
unable to determine the outcome of these disputed claims and or litigation and
whether or not any of these disputed claims and or litigation will ultimately
result in litigation involving the Company.

On November 4, 2003, 88 Corp. filed suit against CART in the United States
Federal District Court for the Central District of California. 88 Corp., the
promoter of the CART CHAMP CAR race at the California Speedway in Fontana,
California, claimed that the race

which was to be held on November 2, 2003 was cancelled due to a "force majeure"
and requested a judicial determination as to whether or not the organizational
and rights fee of $2.5 million, previously paid by 88 Corp. to CART, minus
reasonable expenses incurred by CART, should be refunded to 88 Corp. As a result
of the bankruptcy of CART, this litigation was suspended. 88 Corp. has filed a
proof of claim against CART in the bankruptcy court proceedings requesting
repayment of the $2.5 million, imposition of a constructive trust, and such
other relief as the bankruptcy court deems appropriate. CART has objected to the
claim and has asserted against 88 Corp. a claim for wrongful termination of the
sanction agreement as it relates to the 2003 and 2004 races in the amount of
$5.2 million. At the time CART stock was cancelled and its assets and
liabilities were placed in the CART Liquidating Trust the Company we were unable
to make a determination as to the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or
estimate the amount or range of the recovery or loss. CART Liquidating Trust
("CLT") has entered into a settlement agreement with 88 Corp. in which CLT
agreed to pay 88 Corp. $1.5 million and assign its interest, if any, in a
potential claim against Open Wheel. The settlement is subject to approval by
that bankruptcy court, which has not as yet been secured.

On December 12, 2003, S. R. Holdings Co., filed an action against the
Company and Raceworks, LLC, its wholly owned limited liability company, for an
alleged breach of contract to provide concession services at the Champ Car World
Series race held in Miami, Florida in 2003 and in future years. The case was
filed in the Circuit Court of Miami, Dade County, Florida. The Company filed an
answer denying all allegations. Raceworks filed an answer denying all
allegations and asserted a counterclaim for breach of the agreement by S.R.
Holdings for failure to make a minimum payment to Raceworks. During 2004, the
Company and S.R. Holdings reached a settlement for all claims for a payment by
the Company of $24,000 which was recorded in administrative expenses.

On March 30, 2004 Engels (No. 1) f/k/a/ Silverstone Motorsport Limited
f/k/a Brands Hatch Circuits, Limited ("Brands Hatch") filed a proof of claim
(the "Brands Hatch Proof of Claim") in CART's chapter 11 case asserting a claim
in the amount of $1,150,720. The Brands Hatch Proof of Claim arose out of an
Official Race Agreement (the "Agreement") executed by CART and Brands Hatch on
or around March 30, 2004. On July 30, 2004, CART objected to the Brands Hatch
Proof of Claim and asserted counterclaims, commencing an adversary case
captioned as CART, Inc. v. Silverstone Motorsport Limited, No. 04-00440 (the
"Adversary Proceeding"). On or around January 26, 2005, CART and Brands Hatch
executed a Settlement Agreement disposing of the Adversary Proceeding and the
Brands Hatch Proof of Claim and releasing both CART and Brands Hatch from all
claims arising out of the Agreement, the Brands Hatch Proof of Claim and the
Adversary Proceeding. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Brands Hatch
Proof of Claim was allowed in the amount of $115,000.000.

On August 5, 2004 the Company was served with a complaint to avoid and
recover preferential transfers filed on behalf of WorldCom, Inc. and MCI, Inc.,
in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The
action alleges that the Company received $1,500,000 in July 2002 which was a
payment within 90 days of the date that WorldCom, Inc. and its subsidiaries
commenced their bankruptcy by filing under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Company has not filed an answer at this point and is unable to make a
determination as to the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. The range of the
possible loss is up to $1,500,000.

The Company is party to several lawsuits. Management cannot predict the
outcome of the litigation, and is unable to estimate the impact that ultimate
resolution of these matters may have on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

We may become involved in other litigation not specifically identified
above.

Upon completion of the sale of substantially all of our operating assets
to OPEN WHEEL in February 2004, most of our employees resigned and accepted
employment with OPEN WHEEL and we ceased operations. The risks and uncertainties
that could cause our actual future financial results to differ materially from
our present expectations or projections regarding the estimated distribution to
shareholders are set forth in "Factors That May Affect Future Results."

The following information is presented primarily for historical purposes
and should be read noting that the Company is no longer involved in an active
business. As you read the following you should also refer to the consolidated
financial statements and related notes contained in this report, as well as item
6, "Selected Consolidated Financial Data."

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

USE OF ESTIMATES

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements
requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods.

Significant accounting estimates include accounting for allowance for
doubtful accounts receivable, impairment of tangible and intangible assets,
income taxes and related valuation allowance and certain contingent liabilities.

However, as we wind down the Company, our financial position will be based
on a number of estimates which will have or may have a significant effect on the
Company's financial condition. These estimates are subject to the risks and
uncertainties which we describe in this report. Actual results, therefore, could
differ from those estimated.

We review the valuation of our accounts receivable on a monthly basis. The
allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on managements assessment of
conditions that might impact the collectibility of accounts.

Our estimates of deferred tax assets and liabilities and their related
valuation allowances and the significant items giving rise to deferred tax
assets and liabilities reflect our assessment of actual future taxes to be paid
or tax refunds to be received. Actual income taxes could vary significantly from
these estimates due to adjustments resulting from final review of our tax
returns by taxing authorities. We have fully reserved our deferred tax assets as
of December 31, 2004 because management believes it is more likely than not that
those assets will not be realized.

Our estimates of contingent liabilities in the financial statements is
based on our view of the expected outcome of the applicable contingency. In the
ordinary course of business, we consult with legal counsel on matters related to
litigation. We are involved in litigation as a part of our normal course of
business (refer to Item 3: Legal Proceedings). When a complaint is filed by or
against the Company, we consider the complaint for disclosure in our financial
statements.

When a claim against us is probable and estimable, we record the expense. When
we are the party filing the claim, we do not record a gain contingency until a
settlement for the claim for damages is received.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004

We plan to liquidate our remaining assets, pay off our remaining
liabilities and complete the process of liquidation and winding up the Company's
affairs as soon as practicable.

In 2004, the only revenues the Company received were from sanction fees
paid to us by OPEN WHEEL and other miscellaneous revenues. We sanctioned eight
of Champ Car domestic races and received $12,500 in sanction fees for each race
for a total of $100,000.

Total revenues were $171,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 related
to sanction fees and other miscellaneous revenues.

Expenses were incurred to complete the wind up of the Company; wind up
expenses were incurred for salaries and benefits, severance and related expense,
office, legal, accounting and public company expenses. In addition, CART, Inc.,
incurred expenses related to the administration of the bankruptcy for legal,
accounting and trustee fees.

Administrative expenses were $3.7 million for the year ended December 31,
2004. Administrative expenses included normal operating expenses through
February 13, 2004, the date the Open Wheel Asset Purchase Agreement was
finalized. Expenses consisted of legal and consulting fees of $2.0 million,
salaries, employee and severance expenses of $1.4 million, insurance of $533,000
and other miscellaneous expenses and credits.

Bad debt expense was $2.1 million and related to the Company's
subordinated receivable claim from CLT, a bankruptcy trust for its former
subsidiary CART, Inc. Pursuant to the bankruptcy Plan approved by the Court, on
November 18, 2004, CART's assets and liabilities were transferred to a
liquidating trust to be held and distributed to holders of allowed claims. The
Company's claim is subordinated to all other unsecured claims. At December 31,
2004, the collectibility of this receivable is doubtful, and has been fully
reserved.

Interest income and realized gain on investments were $140,000 and
$13,000, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Net loss before income taxes was $5.4 million for the year ended December
31, 2004. An income tax benefit of $877,000 was recognized during the twelve
months ended December 31, 2004 representing income tax refunds received by the
Company through the utilization of net operating loss carryback claims that had
been fully reserved and from filed, amended tax returns. Net loss was $4.6
million for the year ended December 31, 2004.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002

Revenues. Total revenues for 2003 were $49.7 million, a decrease of $7.5
million, or 13%, from 2002. This was due to a decrease in sanction fee revenues,
sponsorship revenue, television revenue and other revenue, partially offset by
an increase in race promotion revenue and engine leases as described below.

Sanction fees for 2003 were $24.7 million, a decrease of $11.9 million, or
32%, from 2002. The decrease was partially due to a decrease in the number of
races for which we received a

sanction fee. In 2002, we staged 19 races and received a sanction fee from 17 of
those races, compared to 2003 when we received a sanction fee with respect to 13
races. In 2003, we promoted the races in Kent, United Kingdom, Lausitz Germany,
Portland, Oregon, Cleveland, Ohio, Lexington, Ohio and Miami, Florida and did
not receive sanction fees for these events. The results for these events are
reported in race promotion revenue and race promotion expense. In 2002, we
received sanction fees from races in Motegi, Japan of $4.5 million, Rockingham,
United Kingdom, of $2.8 million, Portland, Oregon, of $1.4 million, Cleveland,
Ohio, of $900,000 and Lexington, Ohio, of $1.2 million. In 2003, we also entered
into amended agreements with certain promoters pursuant to which we reduced the
originally contracted sanction fee.

Sponsorship revenue for 2003 was $7.8 million, a decrease of $2.4 million,
or 23%, from 2002. This decrease was primarily attributable to the loss of our
title sponsor in the amount of $5.0 million after the 2002 season, the decrease
was partially offset by an increase in 2003 sponsorship income from our two
presenting sponsors in the amount of $2.5 million.

Television revenue for 2003 was $1.9 million, a decrease of $2.6 million,
or 58%, from 2002. The decrease was due to a reduction in television advertising
revenues of $800,000, due to a decrease in the amount of available ads sold and
a reduction in ad prices due to a decline in television ratings of our shows. In
addition, international rights fees declined by $1.9 million, due to a decrease
in demand for our television show and inability to sell advertising for our show
in the Brazilian market which in past years had been one of our most profitable
markets internationally.

Race promotion revenue for 2003 was $10.8 million, an increase of $9.4
million or 660%, from 2002. The increase was due to staging six self-promoted
events in 2003 compared to two in 2002. In 2003, we promoted the races in Kent,
United Kingdom, Lausitz Germany, Portland, Oregon, Cleveland, Ohio, Lexington,
Ohio and Miami, Florida. In 2002 we promoted the races in Chicago, Illinois and
Miami, Florida. The corresponding expenses are reported in race promotion
expense below.

Engine leases for 2003, were $1.9 million with no corresponding revenue in
2002. In 2003, we purchased the engines that were used for the 2003 Champ Car
World Series race season. Each team was required to use these engines in order
to compete in the series. We leased the engines to the teams for $100,000 per
car per year.

Other revenue for 2003 was $2.6 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or
42%, from 2002. Other revenue includes membership and entry fees, contingency
awards money, royalty income, commission on parts sales and other miscellaneous
revenue. The decrease was primarily due to the discontinuance of membership,
entry fees and pop-off valve leases for the Champ Car World Series in 2003; a
reduction of $600,000, and fewer entries in our Toyota Atlantic series which
reduced entry fees and parts commissions by $500,000. In addition, there was a
reduction in non-recurring miscellaneous income. In 2002, we received an
insurance settlement reimbursement of $500,000 and a breach of contract
settlement for $500,000.

Expenses. Total expenses for 2003 were $143.3 million, an increase of
$61.4 million, or 75%, from 2002. This increase was due to higher race
distributions, race promotion expenses, television expenses, merger and
strategic charges, litigation expense, asset impairment and strategic charges
and depreciation and amortization, partially offset by a reduction in race
expenses, administrative expenses and relocation expense as described below.

Race distributions for 2003 were $60.9 million, an increase of $41.1,
million or 207%, from 2002. The increase was primarily due to in 2003, we
provided assistance to certain teams to ensure that there were a sufficient
number of race cars competing in our series. We paid $31.8 million in team
assistance in 2003 compared to $2.0 million in 2002. The increase was also
partially due to an increase in participation payments that we made to all of
our teams, from $10,000 per car per race in 2002 to $20,000 per car per race in
2003. In addition, for the 2003

Champ Car World Series we began an entrant support program where we made
payments of $22,500 per car per race to each participating team. In 2003, we
paid $14.5 million in participation and entry support payments compared to $3.5
million in 2002.

Race expenses for 2003 were $8.1 million, a decrease of $2.8 million, or
26%, from 2002. The decrease is partially due to a decrease in freight expenses
of $800,000, related to the race in Rockingham, England in 2002. The freight
expenses were related to transporting the cars and equipment for the two races
scheduled to be conducted in Europe. The German promoter filed for bankruptcy in
2002 and the race was canceled; in an amendment to the original agreement for
the Rockingham race, CART agreed to pay the German promoter's share of the
freight charges. The decrease is also due to a reduction in salaries, fees, per
diems and travel expenses of $1.4 million, due to having fewer officials working
the events and a $600,000 decrease related to a reduction of our pace car
program.

Race promotion expenses for 2003 were $20.8 million, an increase of $11.2
million, or 115%, from 2002. The increase is due to staging six self-promoted
events in 2003 compared to two in 2002. In 2003, we promoted the races in Kent,
United Kingdom, Lausitz Germany, Portland, Oregon, Cleveland, Ohio, Lexington,
Ohio and Miami, Florida. In 2002 we promoted the races in Chicago, Illinois and
Miami, Florida.

Television expense for 2003 was $14.9 million, an increase of $4.0 million
or 36% from 2002. The increase was due to a change in our television agreements
from the previous year. In 2002, Speed Channel paid for the production and
received the ad inventory for shows aired on their network. In 2003, we paid for
the production expenses and received the ad inventory for shows aired on their
network.

Administrative expenses for 2003 were $20.6 million, a decrease of $7.2
million, or 26%, from 2002. This decrease was primarily attributable to a
decrease in, marketing and advertising of $3.4 million, sales costs related to
the loss of our title sponsor of $2.2 million, professional fees of $850,000 and
salary and employee related expenses of $594,000, due to a reduction in the
workforce from 2002.

Merger charges for 2003 was $2.0 million with no corresponding expense in
the prior year. This expense was attributable to legal and consulting expenses
associated with the terminated merger and subsequent asset purchase agreement
entered into with OPEN WHEEL.

Litigation expense for 2003 was $2.7 million with no corresponding expense
in the prior year. This expense was partially attributable to an arbitration
settlement of $1.75 million paid in August 2003, to Engine Developments Ltd. in
a breach of contract case over a contract to purchase engines, a settlement of
$400,000, in a breach of contract suit filed by two former team owners,
DellaPenna Motorsports and Precision Preparation, Inc., settlement of contract
disputes with ESPN television over the canceled Texas Motor Speedway race of
$250,000, an arbitration award to Action Performance Companies, Inc. in a breach
of contract case in regard to a licensed merchandise contract of $931,000, and
settlement of early termination of a sanction agreement with IMSA of $500,000,
in regard to a race in Miami, Florida. The expenses were partially offset by
receipt of $1.0 million from a bankruptcy settlement regarding claims filed
against EuroSpeedway Lausitz for loss of sanction fees and other damages that
occurred when the 2002 event was canceled as a result of the bankruptcy of the
promoter.

Relocation expenses for 2002 were $1.4 million with no corresponding
expense in the current year. This expense relates to moving our headquarters
from Troy, Michigan to Indianapolis, Indiana.

Asset impairment charges for 2003 were $9.6 million with no corresponding
expense in the prior year. The charges partially relate to impairment of
long-lived assets associated with the

bankruptcy of CART, Inc. and the court approved "Asset Purchase Agreement"
entered into with OPEN WHEEL of $4.5 million. In addition, the impairment
charges include the write-down of goodwill and long lived assets of $5.1
million, associated with our subsidiary Raceworks, LLC, which was the promoter
of the race in Miami, Florida. In December of 2003 it was determined that it was
not feasible to continue holding races in the Miami market; the impairment
expense is the write-down to fair value of the tangible and intangible assets
related to this subsidiary.

Depreciation and amortization for 2003 was $3.8 million, compared to
depreciation and amortization of $1.4 million for 2002. The increase was
primarily attributable to the depreciation related to the engines we purchased
in 2003 that were leased to teams in the 2003 Champ Car Series.

Interest Income. Interest income for 2003 was $1.3 million, compared to
interest income (net) of $3.8 million for 2002. The decrease of $2.5 million was
primarily attributable to a decrease in interest rates and available cash
balances.

Income Tax Expense/Benefit. Income tax expense for 2003 was $427,000,
compared to an income tax benefit of $7.3 million in 2002. Due to the Company
winding up its business and dissolving, management does not believe that any
future tax benefit will be realized, therefore, the tax benefit for 2003 has
been completely reduced by a valuation allowance. The 2003 tax expense relates
to foreign taxes paid where no future foreign tax credit will be realized. The
effective tax rate for 2002 was 35%.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change. Cumulative effect of accounting
change for 2002 was $1.5 million, or $956,000 net of tax benefit of $514,000.
There was no corresponding amount in the same period in the current year. The
amount relates to our implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 142 pursuant to which we wrote off our impaired goodwill.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since our inception, we funded our operations and capital expenditures
principally from the proceeds of our public offerings. At December 31, 2004, we
had $5.5 million in working capital. Our primary source of liquidity was $5.5
million in cash and cash equivalents which was a net increase of $2.2 million
when compared to December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily the result of
net cash proceeds from investing activities, such as the sale of investments of
$7.3 million, partially offset by net cash used in operating activities and
financing activities of $3.0 million and $1.8 million respectively.

Our short term investment balance on December 31, 2004 was $0, a net
decrease of $7.4 million from December 31, 2003. This decrease was primarily due
to funding our operations during 2004.

On February 13, 2004, the assets of CART, Inc., the stock of Promotion
Agency, LTD. and CART Licensed Products, Inc., were sold to OPEN WHEEL for total
consideration of $3.3 million in cash, the assumption by the buyer of $1.4
million in prize money owed to teams not affiliated with the principals of OPEN
WHEEL for the 2003 race season, forgiveness of $1.3 million in prize money due
teams affiliated with the principals of OPEN WHEEL and the assumption of certain
promoter, sponsor and other contracts.

While we cannot currently make a precise estimate of the expenses, we
believe that a significant portion of our current cash at December 31, 2004 may
be required to pay the expenditures associated with the wind-up of the affairs
of the Company.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

We entered into a lease for our corporate headquarters in Indianapolis,
Indiana. The lease expires on October 31, 2010. The total amount due through the
life of the lease as of December 31, 2004 is $1.8 million. We have sublet this
office space to OPEN WHEEL, on substantially the same terms as our lease, and
retain office space for our use, at no cost. However, we remain liable on the
lease.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of December
31, 2004.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS.

SFAS NO. 123 (REVISED 2004) - In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123
(revised 2004), Share-Based Payments. The Statement requires that the
compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in
the financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of
the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company will be required to
apply Statement No. 123(R) as of the first annual period that begins after June
15, 2005. Management does not expect the adoption of Statement 123(R) to have a
material effect on the results of operations or financial position.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Gerald R. Forsythe is one of the three principal members of OPEN WHEEL, the
other members being Mr. Gentilozzi and Mr. Kalkhoven, which purchased the
operating assets of CART, Inc. pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement entered
into in February 2004. The consideration paid to CART, Inc. for the purchase of
such assets, along with the stock of Pro-Motion Agency, Ltd. and CART Licensed
Products, Inc. was total consideration of $3.3 million in cash, the assumption
by the buyer of $1.4 million in prize money owed to teams not affiliated with
the principals of OPEN WHEEL, forgiveness of $1.3 million in prize money due
teams affiliated with principals of OPEN WHEEL, including Mr. Forsythe and Mr.
Gentilozzi, and the assumption of certain promoter, sponsorship, and other
contracts. The agreement was approved by order of the bankruptcy court at a
hearing held on January 28, 2004.

In 2004, the Company sanctioned the races for OPEN WHEEL which Mr.
Forsythe, a 22.9% owner of the Company, is a principal owner. The Company
received $12,500 for each domestic race it sanctioned and was reimbursed for
various expenses it incurred in sanctioning the events. The total payments made
by OPEN WHEEL for the 2004 season were $100,000.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

WE CANNOT ASSURE YOU OF THE AMOUNT, IF ANY, OF ANY DISTRIBUTION TO OUR
STOCKHOLDERS UNDER A PLAN OF COMPLETE LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION.

Liquidation and dissolution may not create value to our stockholders or
result in any remaining capital for distribution to our stockholders. We cannot
assure you of the precise nature and amount of any distribution to our
stockholders pursuant to a plan of distribution. Uncertainties as to the precise
net value of our non-cash assets and the ultimate amount of our liabilities make
it impracticable to predict the aggregate net value, if any, ultimately
distributable to our stockholders. The actual nature and amount of all
distributions will depend in part upon our ability to settle our liabilities or
potential liabilities. We may not be successful in doing so to return a
meaningful amount of cash to our stockholders.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SETTLE ALL OF OUR OBLIGATIONS TO CREDITORS.

We have current and future obligations to creditors. These include,
without limitation, long-term contractual obligations and litigation claims and
expenses. As part of the wind down process, we will attempt to settle our
obligations with our creditors. We may not, however, succeed in doing so. If we
cannot reach an agreement with a creditor concerning an obligation, that
creditors may choose to bring a lawsuit against us. Any litigation could delay
or even prevent us from completing the plan of dissolution or delay in making
any cash distributions to our shareholders. Moreover, amounts required to settle
our obligations to creditors will reduce the amount of remaining capital
available for distributions to stockholders.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO INCUR CLAIMS, LIABILITIES AND EXPENSES WHICH WILL REDUCE THE
AMOUNT AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION TO STOCKHOLDERS.

Claims, liabilities and expenses such as operating costs, salaries,
directors' and officers' insurance, payroll and local taxes, legal, accounting
and consulting fees and miscellaneous office expenses, will continue to be
incurred as we wind down operations. These expenses will reduce the amount of
assets available for ultimate distribution to stockholders, if any. If available
cash is not adequate to provide for our obligations, liabilities, expenses and
claims, we may not be able to distribute meaningful cash, or any cash at all, to
our stockholders.

DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS, IF ANY, TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS COULD BE DELAYED.

Our Board of Directors has not established a firm timetable for proposing
to our stockholders a plan of liquidation, nor can we assure approval of such a
plan or the amount of any distributions to our stockholders. We are currently
unable to predict the precise timing of any distribution, if any, pursuant to
our wind down. The timing of distribution, if any, will depend on and could be
delayed by, among other things, the timing of claim settlements with creditors
and potential litigation. Additionally, a creditor could seek an injunction
against the

making of distributions to our stockholders on the ground that the amounts to be
distributed were needed to provide for the payment of our liabilities and
expenses. Additionally, we could seek protection from creditors under the
federal bankruptcy code. Any action of this type could delay or substantially
diminish, or eliminate, the amount available for distribution to our
stockholders.

IF WE FAIL TO CREATE AN ADEQUATE CONTINGENCY RESERVE FOR PAYMENT OF OUR EXPENSES
AND LIABILITIES, OUR STOCKHOLDERS COULD BE HELD LIABLE FOR PAYMENT TO OUR
CREDITORS OF EACH SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S PRO RATA SHARE OF AMOUNTS OWED TO THE
CREDITORS IN EXCESS OF THE CONTINGENCY RESERVE, UP TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY
DISTRIBUTED TO SUCH STOCKHOLDER.

If a plan of dissolution is proposed to and ratified and approved by our
stockholders, we will file a Certificate of Dissolution with the State of
Delaware dissolving the Company. Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation
Law, we will continue to exist for three years after the dissolution becomes
effective or for such longer period as the Delaware Court of Chancery shall
direct, for the purpose of prosecuting and defending suits against us and
enabling us gradually to close our business, to dispose of our property, to
discharge our liabilities and to distribute to our stockholders any remaining
assets. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, in the event we fail to
create an adequate contingency reserve for payment of our expenses and
liabilities during this three-year period, each stockholder could be held liable
for payment to our creditors of such stockholder's pro rata share of amounts
owed to creditors in excess of the contingency reserve, up to the amount
actually distributed to such stockholder.

However, the liability of any stockholder would be limited to the amounts
previously received by such stockholder from us (and from any liquidating trust
or trusts) in the dissolution. Accordingly, in such event a stockholder could be
required to return all distributions previously made to such stockholder. In
such event, a stockholder could receive nothing from us under the plan of
dissolution. Moreover, in the event a stockholder has paid taxes on amounts
previously received, a repayment of all or a portion of such amount could result
in a stockholder incurring a net tax cost if the stockholder's repayment of an
amount previously distributed does not cause a commensurate reduction in taxes
payable. There can be no assurance that the contingency reserve established by
us will be adequate to cover any expenses and liabilities.

WE DO NOT EXPECT TO RECOGNIZE ANY MATERIAL REVENUE IN THE FUTURE

We do not expect to recognize much, if any, additional revenue.
Furthermore, it may be difficult to collect receivables now that we have
announced our intent to wind down.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO INCUR THE EXPENSES OF COMPLYING WITH PUBLIC COMPANY
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.

We have an obligation to continue to comply with the applicable reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, referred to as
the "Exchange Act," even though compliance with such reporting requirements is
economically burdensome.

ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

INTEREST RATE RISK. Our investment policy was designed to maximize safety
and liquidity while maximizing yield within those constraints. At December 31,
2004, our investments consisted entirely of money market funds. Because of the
relatively short-term nature of our investments, our interest rate risk is not
considered significant.

ITEM 8: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Our consolidated financial statements and related notes are included in Item 15
of this document.

ITEM 9: CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None

ITEM 9A: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to
material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries)
required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.

(b) Upon completion of the sale of substantially all of our operating assets to
OPEN WHEEL in February 2004, most of our employees resigned and accepted
employment with OPEN WHEEL and we ceased operations. We are in the process of
winding up the affairs of the Company. We currently have two employees the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and we have also used temporary
accounting help in winding up the Companies affairs. Our accounting staff
consists of our Chief Financial Officer. All significant expenditures are
authorized and approved by our Chief Executive Officer and considering the
current state of the Company's affairs believe we have effective internal
controls and authorization processes in place.

named executive officer, as follows: Mr. Pook ($17,365); and Mr. Carter
($900). Includes the contributions to 401(K) plans on behalf of the named

Currently, there are only two employees of the Company. Christopher Pook,
the sole Director, President and CEO of the Company, amended his employment
agreement on January 30, 2004. In the amendment, Mr. Pook agreed to waive all of
his potential payments related to a proposed change of control of Championship.
If a change of control did occur, Mr. Pook may have been entitled to a payment
equal to three times his current compensation and would receive additional
benefits. Under the amended agreement, Mr. Pook continues to be employed as
President and CEO of the Company through December 18, 2004. In December of 2004,
Mr. Pook's employment agreement was extended by the Company through June 30,
2005. Mr. Pook will continue to receive his current monthly salary. Mr. Pook's
salary on an annualized basis is $450,000.

Mr. Carter entered into an amendment to his employment agreement with the
Company effective February 9, 2004. Mr. Carter agreed to retain his position as
Chief Financial Officer, Vice President of Finance, Chief Accounting Officer,
and Treasurer through December 31, 2004. In December of 2004, Mr. Carter's
employment agreement was extended by the Company

through June 30, 2005. Mr. Carter will continue to receive his current monthly
salary. Mr. Carter's salary on an annualized basis is $210,000.

Because Mr. Pook is the sole Director of the Company, there is no longer a
Compensation Committee. Mr. Pook's initial amended employment agreement was
approved by the Compensation Committee which was in place at the time the
amendment to the employment agreement was entered into. There was no such
approval for the second amendment.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Championship
Auto Racing Teams, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31,
2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2004. Our audits also included the financial statement
schedule listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and
financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Championship Auto Racing Teams,
Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, a formerly
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, CART, Inc., filed a petition under
Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code during 2003. Pursuant to the bankruptcy
court order, the Company sold the operating assets of CART and the stock of
Pro-Motion Agency, Inc., a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and
CART Licensed Products, Inc., a former wholly-owned subsidiary of CART, Inc.
Also, pursuant to the bankruptcy court order, the Company cancelled its stock in
CART, Inc. and transferred the remaining assets and liabilities to an
unconsolidated liquidating trust. During 2003, the Company ceased the operations
of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Raceworks LLC, and intends to liquidate its
remaining assets. The accompanying 2003 consolidated financial statements do not
purport to reflect or provide for the consequences of the bankruptcy
proceedings. In particular, such financial statements do not purport to show (a)
as to assets, their realizable value on a liquidation basis or their
availability to satisfy liabilities, (b) as to prepetition liabilities, the
amounts that may be allowed for claims or contingencies, or the status and
priority thereof, (c) as to stockholders' accounts, the effect of any changes
that may be made in the capitalization of the Company, or (d) as to operations,
the effect of any changes that may be made in its business.

F-2

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 1, 12 and 18,
the Company's recurring loses from operations, the sale of substantially all the
operating assets of its CART, Inc. as discussed above, pending or threatened
litigation against the Company and its subsidiaries, and the Company's intent to
liquidate its remaining assets raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are
also discussed in Notes 1, 12 and 18. The consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2002, the
Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible
assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CHAPTER 11 FILING

BASIS OF PRESENTATION. The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared by management and, in the opinion of management, contain all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present
fairly the financial position of Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the
results of their operations, the statement of stockholder's equity and their
cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002.

ORGANIZATION. CART, Inc., ("CART") (a Michigan corporation) was organized
as a not-for-profit corporation in 1978, with its main purpose being to promote
the sport of automobile racing, primarily open-wheel type racing cars. As of
January 1, 1992, the entity became a for-profit corporation and continued to use
the CART name.

In December 1997, Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc., (a Delaware
corporation) was formed to serve as a holding company for CART and its
subsidiaries (the "Reorganization"). Each outstanding share of common stock of
CART was acquired in exchange for 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
References to the "Company" mean Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc. and its
subsidiaries.

Through the 2003 season, Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc., through
CART, its wholly-owned subsidiary, owned, operated and sanctioned the open-wheel
motorsports series known in 2003 as the Bridgestone Presents the Champ Car World
Series Powered By Ford. CART was responsible for organizing, marketing and
staging each of the races in the Champ Car World Series. The Company also acted
as a promoter at certain events. The Company staged events at four different
types of tracks, including superspeedways, ovals, temporary road courses and
permanent road courses, each of which required different skills and disciplines
from the drivers and teams.

On August 18, 2003, we publicly announced that we had received a proposal
from Open Wheel Racing Series, LLC, now Champ Car World Series, LLC ("Open
Wheel") related to the acquisition of the Company and that we were engaged in
negotiations regarding a possible transaction with Open Wheel.

On August 24, 2003, we publicly announced that our board of directors had
instructed management to continue negotiating with Open Wheel with respect to
all terms related to a possible acquisition of the Company. The Company, Open
Wheel and their respective advisors continued to engage in negotiations
regarding the terms of a possible transaction and related definitive agreements.

On September 10, 2003, representatives of the Company, Open Wheel and Open
Wheel Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Open Wheel, executed and
delivered the merger agreement and other related agreements and issued a joint
press release announcing the proposed transaction.

On December 2, 2003, we announced that representatives of Open Wheel had
informed us that Open Wheel believed that a number of conditions of the pending
merger between the parties would not be satisfied by the time of the special
meeting of stockholders that was scheduled for December 19, 2003.

F-8

On December 15, 2003, we announced that we had entered into an Asset
Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with Open Wheel. The Agreement would allow
Open Wheel to purchase the assets of CART needed to operate the Champ Car World
Series and the stock of Pro-Motion Agency, Inc., our subsidiary that operates
the Toyota Atlantics series and CART Licensed Products, Inc., our subsidiary
that operates our licensed merchandise function. In addition, Open Wheel would
assume from us and CART the rights and obligations under certain promoter,
sponsor and other contracts. Open Wheel stated that it intended to continue to
operate the Champ Car World Series and the Toyota Atlantic series. The total
consideration that would be paid under the agreement was $3.0 million less $1.5
million in 2003 prize money to teams who were not affiliated with Open Wheel;
which was an obligation of CART that would be assumed by Open Wheel. The
Agreement terminated the previously announced merger agreement that we had
entered into with Open Wheel on September 10, 2003.

On December 16, 2003, CART filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court Southern District of
Indiana (RE CART, Case No. 03-23385-FJO-11).

An Amendment by Interlineation (the "Amendment") with respect to the
Agreement was entered into on January 15, 2004 to reflect the change in
consideration and the assumption of certain claims.

On February 13, 2004, the assets of CART, Inc, the stock of Pro-Motion
Agency, Inc. and CART Licensed Products, Inc., were sold to Open Wheel for total
cash consideration of $3.3 million, assumption of liabilities of $1.4 million in
2003 prize money to teams who were not affiliated with Open Wheel, which was an
obligation of CART, forgiveness of $1.3 million in prize money due principals of
Open Wheel, which was an obligation of CART, and the assumption of certain
promoter, sponsor and other contracts, pursuant to an order of the bankruptcy
court at a hearing held on January 28, 2004.

Upon completion of the sale of substantially all of our operating assets
to Open Wheel in February 2004, most of our employees resigned and accepted
employment with Open Wheel and we ceased operations. The Company currently has
two employees who are winding up the affairs of the Company; the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

CART operated as debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code in order
to wind up its affairs. On August 3, 2004 CART filed CART's Amended Chapter 11
Plan (the "Plan") and the Second Amended Disclosure Statement For Amended
Chapter 11 Plan Of CART (the "Disclosure Statement") with the Bankruptcy Court.
The Plan provides for the distribution of the asset sale proceeds and other
currently available cash and the liquidation and distribution of the remaining
estate assets to CART's creditors. The Disclosure Statement was approved as
containing adequate information by the Bankruptcy Court on August 3, 2004. The
hearing on the confirmation of the plan was held on September 13, 2004. On
September 23, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court entered its Findings Of Fact,
Conclusions Of Law, And Order Under 11 U.S.C. Sections 1129(a) And (b) And Fed.
R. Bankr. P. 3020 Confirming CART's Amended Chapter 11 Plan.

Pursuant to the Plan on November 18, 2004, the Company cancelled its stock
in CART and all remaining CART, assets and liabilities were transferred to the
CART Liquidation Trust to be held, pending allowance or disallowance of disputed
claims, and distributed to holders of allowed claims.

F-9

approval by our shareholders. In the event that our Board of Directors adopts a
plan of liquidation and dissolution, we would expect to incur liquidation
expenses, in addition to payments of ongoing operating expenses and settlement
of existing or potential obligations. Liquidation expenses may include, among
others, employee salaries, severance and related costs, legal and accounting
fees. While we cannot currently make a precise estimate of the expenses, we
believe that a significant portion of our current cash may be required to pay
the above expenditures.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed above, the Company's
intention to liquidate the remaining assets, pay off the remaining liabilities,
and complete the process of liquidation and dissolution of the Company's affairs
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION. The consolidated financial statements of the
Company as of December 31, 2004 include its wholly-owned subsidiary, Raceworks,
LLC, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Pro-Motion Agency, Ltd. and CART Licensed
Products, Inc. through February 13, 2004, and CART (Debtor in Possession)
through November 23, 2004. The consolidated financial statements of the Company
for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, include the financial statements
of Championship Auto Racing Teams, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CART,
Pro-Motion Agency, Ltd. and CART Licensed Products, Inc, a subsidiary of CART
and as of March 7, 2003, the consolidated financial statements also include the
financial statements of Raceworks, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary (See Note 9).
All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE. Basic earnings per share are calculated
as net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted per share amounts assume the exercise of
shares issuable under certain stock option plans when dilutive.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT. The Company has disposed of or fully impaired all
property and equipment as of December 31, 2004. (See Note 11). During the twelve
months ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded an impairment of $7,999,000
to adjust property and equipment to estimated fair values. Prior to the
impairment, property and equipment were depreciated using the straight-line and
accelerated methods over their estimated useful lives which range from 3 to 20
years. Leasehold improvements were amortized over the shorter of the life of the
leases or the remaining useful life of the leasehold improvements.

ASSET IMPAIRMENTS. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" ("SFAS 144"), long-lived assets to be held and used by the Company are
reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate costs may not be
recoverable. Impairment losses on long-lived assets are recognized when book
values exceed expected undiscounted future cash flows with the impairment
measured on a discounted future cash flow basis (see Note 11).

REVENUE RECOGNITION. During 2004, revenues primarily consisted of fees
received for sanctioning domestic races for Open Wheel. The revenue was
recognized at the time of the event. The following is presented for historical
purposes and should be read with the understanding that the Company is no longer
involved in an active business. In 2003 and 2002, substantially all of the
Company's revenue was derived from sanction fees, promotion revenues,
sponsorship revenues, television revenues, engine leases and other miscellaneous
revenue. Sanction fee revenues are fees paid

F-10

to the Company by track promoters to sanction an Open Wheel event at the race
venue and to provide the necessary race management. The Company self-promoted
certain events; revenues received for events the Company promoted were recorded
as race promotion revenues. The Company received sponsorship revenues from
companies who desired to receive brand and product exposure in connection with
Open Wheel races. Pursuant to broadcast agreements, the Company generated
revenues from advertising sales and for the right to broadcast the races, with
revenues based upon viewership, with a minimum guarantee for certain
international contracts in 2002. In 2003 and 2002, the Company bought the
air-time and paid for production for certain races and received the advertising
inventory for certain races. The Company also received revenues from royalty
fees paid for licenses to use service marks of the Company, various drivers,
teams, tracks and industry sponsors for merchandising programs and product
sales.

Recognition of revenue from race sanction agreements was deferred until
the event occurred. Sponsorship revenue and engine lease revenue were recognized
ratably over the period covered by the agreement. Barter revenue was recognized
at the time of the event. Television revenue for rights sales was recognized
ratably over the race schedule and television advertising revenue was recognized
when the advertising was aired. Other revenues included membership and entry
fees, contingency awards money, rights fees and royalty income. Membership and
entry fees and contingency award money were recognized ratably over the race
schedule. Royalty income was recognized as the related product sales occurred or
on a monthly basis based on a minimum guarantee.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Cash and cash equivalents include investments
with original maturities of three months or less at the date of original
acquisition. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality
financial institutions but has potentially subjected the Company to significant
concentrations of credit risk.

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS. The Company's short-term investments were
categorized as available-for-sale, as defined by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities". Unrealized holding gains and losses were reflected
as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders' equity as accumulated
other comprehensive income(loss) until realized. For the purpose of computing
realized gains and losses, cost is identified on a specific identification
basis.

GOODWILL. The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with SFAS No.
142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets". On January 1, 2002, the Company
determined its goodwill was impaired which resulted in a one-time, non-cash
charge of $1.5 million, or $956,000 net of tax benefit of $514,000, to write-off
the value of its goodwill. The goodwill was recorded under the purchase method
of accounting for the purchases of Pro-Motion Agency, Inc. and CART Licensed
Products, LP, on April 10, 1998 and January 1, 1999, respectively. Such charge
is non-recurring in nature and is reflected as a cumulative effect of an
accounting change in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Previous to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company had accounted for its
goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with the accounting standards
existing at the time, and the Company's analyses did not result in recognition
of any impairment loss prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, except as
discussed in Note 9.

Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the carrying
value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. In calculating the
impairment charge, the fair values of the reporting units were estimated using a
discounted cash flow methodology.

In the first quarter of 2003, the Company recorded goodwill in conjunction
with the purchase of Raceworks, LLC (see Note 9)

F-11

Operating results and cash flows of Raceworks, LLC were significantly
lower than expected during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as a result of
the event promoted by Raceworks, LLC in September in Miami. Based on those
results and other qualitative information, the future earnings forecasts were
revised. As a result of management's analysis, the Company recognized a non-cash
asset impairment charge of $1,262,000 to write-off goodwill and other intangible
assets related to the purchase of Raceworks, LLC. The fair value of the
reporting unit was estimated using the present value of expected future cash
flows. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the
carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. The
Company's reporting units are generally consistent with the operating segments
identified in Note 14. Raceworks, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary included in the
race promotions segment, is also a reporting unit.

MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES. The preparation of the consolidated financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company has
chosen to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB No. 25"), in accounting for its stock options
granted to employees and directors. Under APB No. 25, the Company does not
recognize compensation expense on the issuance of its stock options because the
option terms are fixed, and the exercise price equals the market price of the
underlying stock on the grant date.

However, as required by SFAS No. 123, the Company has calculated pro forma
information as if it had determined compensation cost based on the fair value at
the grant date for its stock options granted to employees and directors. There
were no options granted for the years ended December 31, 2004 or 2003. In
accordance with SFAS No.123, for the year ended December 31, 2002, the fair
values of option grants are estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model for pro-forma purposes with the following
assumptions used for all grants: expected volatility of 71%, expected dividend
yield of 0%, risk-free interest rate of 3% and an expected life of 10 years. Had
the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant
date for its stock under SFAS No. 123, net loss and diluted loss per share would
have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below for the years ended
December 31:

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS. SFAS NO. 123 (REVISED 2004) - In December 2004,
the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payments. The Statement
requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions
be recognized in the financial

F-12

statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or
liability instruments issued. The Company will be required to apply Statement
No. 123(R) as of the first annual period that begins after June 15, 2005.
Management does not expect the adoption of Statement 123(R) to have a material
effect on the results of operations or financial position.

RECLASSIFICATIONS. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2003
and 2002 consolidated financial statements in order for them to conform to the
2004 presentation.

3. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

The following is a summary of the estimated fair value of
available-for-sale short-term investments by balance sheet classification at
December 31:

GROSS UNREALIZED
(In Thousands) ----------------
2003 COST FAIR VALUE GAIN LOSS
------ ---------- ---- ----

U.S. agencies securities $7,306 $ 7,356 $ 50 $ --

Proceeds from sales of investments were approximately $7.4 million, $78.6
million, $146.4 million in 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. In 2004, 2003,
and 2002, gross gains and losses on such sales were not significant.

Contractual maturities ranged from less than one year to two years. The
weighted average maturity of the portfolio did not exceed one year.

4. NOTES RECEIVABLE

In May 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party
whereby we paid for the costs of capital improvements retained by the third
party necessary to stage an event which we promoted. We accepted an unsecured
note of $750,000 for said improvements, to be collected, without interest over
five years. The note was to be repaid over the life of the agreement at $75,000
per year and a final payment of $450,000 due in the fifth year. The Company
imputed interest on the note at a rate of 6% and recorded a discount which
reduced the note by $46,000. In November 2003, the Company terminated the
agreement and according to the terms of the contract the note was forgiven. The
note was written-off during the year ended December 31, 2003.

In June 2003, the Company entered into an amendment to a sanction
agreement with a promoter where we accepted a note in the amount of $400,000 as
payment for a portion of the sanction fee. This note was payable in 36 equal
monthly installments, bearing interest at 10% per annum, beginning January 1,
2004. The note was collateralized by all products and proceeds of all other
events staged by the promoter at the promoter's facility. After an assessment of
the financial condition of the promoter and other considerations, at December
31, 2003, it was determined that the note should be written-down to management's
estimate of its fair value of $150,000; a loss was recorded in asset impairment
and strategic charges in the amount of $320,139 for the year-ended December 31,
2003. A settlement agreement was entered into for $150,000 with the promoter and
was transferred to CART Liquidating Trust in accordance with the bankruptcy plan
(See Note 18).

5. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consists of the following at December 31 (in
Thousands):

2003 USEFUL LIFE (IN YEARS)

Engines $ 2,273 2
Equipment 5,251 5-20
Furniture and fixtures 248 10

Other 154 5 (except leasehold improvements)
---------
Total 10,303

Less accumulated depreciation (5,318)
---------
Property and equipment (net) $ 4,985
=========

Property and equipment were written down as of December 31, 2003 to their
fair value pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into with Open Wheel
(see Note 11). Depreciation expense recorded was $0, $3.84 million, and $1.44
million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

On February 13, 2004, the property and equipment of CART, the stock of
Pro-Motion Agency, Inc. and CART Licensed Properties were sold to Open Wheel,
pursuant to an order of the bankruptcy court. The Company disposed of its
remaining property and equipment in the process of winding up of its affairs
during the year ended December 31, 2004.

6. OPERATING LEASES

The Company had two operating leases for office space, one in
Indianapolis, Indiana and one, with a former director, in Miami Florida, which
have terms through 2010. In December 2003, the lease in Miami was canceled in
exchange for a payment of $44,000 and forfeiture of the security deposit of
$16,000. The Indianapolis lease was sublet to Open Wheel, at substantially the
same terms as our lease, and we retain office space for our use at no cost,
however, we remain liable on the lease. Total rent expense for operating leases
were approximately $0, $361,493 and $491,173 for 2004, 2003 and 2002,
respectively.

Approximate future minimum lease payments under the non-cancelable
operating lease are as follows:

7. INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that
will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax
laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected
to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to
reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

F-14

SFAS No. 109 requires that net deferred tax assets be reduced by a
valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not
be realized. At December 31, 2004, the Company had a deferred tax asset from
U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of $27.8 million. This carryforward will
expire in 20 years. Failure to generate taxable income within the carryforward
period would affect the ultimate realization of the net deferred tax asset. Due
to the financial condition of the Company described in Note 1, management does
not believe that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Therefore, the tax
benefit for current year losses and net deferred tax assets recorded at December
31, 2004 have been reduced by a full valuation allowance. The tax benefit
recorded for the year ended December 31, 2004 represents tax refunds received by
the Company through the utilization of net operating loss carryback claims
previously deemed unrealizable.

The tax effects of temporary differences giving rise to deferred tax
assets and liabilities at December 31 are as follows:

2004 2003
-------- -------

Non-current deferred tax assets (liabilities):
Basis difference in fixed assets $ -- $ 1,730

8. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company offered a 401(k) savings plan. Contributions to the plan are
in the form of employee salary deferral, subject to discretionary
employer-matching contributions. The Company's contributions to the plan were
approximately $0, $71,000 and $81,000 in 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. In
February 2004, this plan was assumed by Open Wheel and the Company has no future
obligations under the plan.

9. ACQUISITION OF RACEWORKS, LLC

On March 7, 2003, the Company acquired all of the membership interests in
Raceworks, LLC ("Raceworks"). The results of Raceworks' operations have been
included in the consolidated financial statements since that date. Raceworks is
a motorsports promotion company and held a revocable license agreement to
annually conduct a street race in downtown Miami through 2017, with an option to
extend for an additional ten (10) years. The aggregate purchase price was $1.2
million including $473,000 of cash and a promissory note of $722,000. In
December 2003, the Company entered into an agreement for full and final
settlement of the note for a cash payment to the note holders of $361,250.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values, at the time of
acquisition, of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of the
acquisition.

Current assets $ 449,000
Property and equipment 4,120,000
Other assets 36,000
Intangible assets including goodwill 1,262,000
----------
Total assets acquired 5,867,000
----------
Current liabilities (1,916,000)
Long-term debt (2,778,000)
----------
Total liabilities assumed (4,694,000)
----------
Net assets acquired $1,173,000
==========

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Under purchase accounting, the total purchase price was allocated to the
tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Raceworks based upon their
respective fair values as of the date of the acquisition. An allocation of the
purchase price has been made to major categories of assets and liabilities based
on available information at the date of acquisition.

Because operating results and cash flows were significantly lower than
expected, the Company concluded the assets were impaired (see Note 11). In
December 2003, Raceworks' operations were discontinued. A wind-up of the
business is currently under way due to CART's bankruptcy filing, the subsequent
sale of its assets to Open Wheel and Open Wheel's decision not to continue
racing in Miami. In 2004, settlements have been negotiated with certain
Raceworks vendors which resulted in reductions of administrative expenses of
approximately $563,000.

10. DEBT

In July 2002, the Company guaranteed a $1.8 million commercial term loan
in connection with the operations of Raceworks. The Company subsequently assumed
this loan in conjunction with the acquisition of Raceworks. On May 10, 2004, the
Company entered into an assignment and release agreement that was for full and
final settlement of any and all obligations related to the loan in exchange for
a cash payment from the Company of the remaining principal balance of
$1,700,000.

F-16

11. ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND STRATEGIC CHARGES

RACEWORKS, LLC. During 2003, operating results and cash flows of Raceworks
were significantly lower than expected, which were considered to be an
indication of impairment. Based on operating results and other qualitative
information, the future earnings forecasts were revised and the fair value
determined. The Company recognized a non-cash asset impairment charge of
$1,262,000 to write-off goodwill and other intangible assets related to the
purchase of Raceworks during 2003. The fair value of the reporting unit was
estimated using the present value of expected future cash flows.

In September 2003, the Company reviewed the carrying value of the
long-lived assets of Raceworks using estimated cash flows. The carrying values
of the long-lived assets were considered impaired. In the absence of quoted
market prices, the fair values of the long-lived assets were determined using
estimates of amounts at which the assets could be sold to third parties in
current transactions, less selling costs. The Company recognized a non-cash
asset impairment charge of $2,038,000 for the period ended September 30, 2003 to
reduce the carrying value of the property and equipment of Raceworks to
estimated fair value.

In December 2003, after the merger agreement with Open Wheel was
terminated as described in Note 1, it was determined that Open Wheel had no
interest in the assets of Raceworks or in continuing to race in the city of
Miami. The Company initiated a plan to wrap-up the affairs of Raceworks by
closing the office and liquidating its remaining assets. The assets were
written-down to their estimated fair value and the Company recognized an asset
impairment charge of $1,755,000 in the year December 31, 2003.

CART, PROMOTION AGENCY, LTD., AND CART LICENSED PRODUCTS, INC. The sale of
certain assets and common stock to Open Wheel, on February 13, 2004, pursuant to
the court approved sale described in Note 1, established fair value for such
assets. Because the carrying value of such assets and common stock at December
31, 2003 exceeded their fair values an impairment charge was recognized in 2003
as follows:

Value received (in thousands):
Cash $ 3,260
Liabilities assumed:
Points fund and royalties payable 2,740
Intercompany debt 571
Accounts payable 192
Other liabilities 32

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LITIGATION. On November 4, 2003, 88 Corp. filed suit against CART in the
United States Federal District Court for the Central District of California. 88
Corp., the promoter of the CART race at the California Speedway in Fontana,
California, claimed that the race which was to be held on November 2, 2003 was
cancelled due to a "force majeure" and requested a judicial determination as to
whether or not the organizational and rights fee of $2.5 million, previously
paid by 88 Corp. to CART, minus reasonable expenses incurred by CART, should be
refunded to 88 Corp. As a result of the bankruptcy of CART, this litigation was
suspended. 88 Corp. has filed a proof of claim against CART in the bankruptcy
court proceedings requesting repayment of the $2.5 million, imposition of a
constructive trust, and such other relief as the bankruptcy court deems
appropriate. CART has

F-17

objected to the claim and has asserted against 88 Corp. a claim for wrongful
termination of the sanction agreement as it relates to the 2003 and 2004 races
in the amount of $5.2 million. At the time CART stock was cancelled and its
assets and liabilities were placed in the CART Liquidating Trust, the Company
was unable to make a determination as to the likelihood of an unfavorable
outcome or estimate the amount or range of the recovery or loss. CART
Liquidating Trust ("CLT") has entered into a settlement agreement with 88 Corp.
in which CLT agreed to pay 88 Corp. $1.5 million and assign its interest, if
any, in a potential claim against Open Wheel. The settlement is subject to
approval by that bankruptcy court, which has not as yet been secured.

On March 30, 2004 Engels (No. 1) f/k/a Silverstone Motorsport Limited
f/k/a Brands Hatch Circuits, Limited ("Brands Hatch") filed a proof of claim
(the "Brands Hatch Proof of Claim") in CART's chapter 11 case asserting a claim
in the amount of $1,150,720. The Brands Hatch Proof of Claim arose out of an
Official Race Agreement (the "Agreement") executed by CART and Brands Hatch on
or around March 30, 2004. On July 30, 2004, CART objected to the Brands Hatch
Proof of Claim and asserted counterclaims, commencing an adversary case
captioned as CART, Inc. v. Silverstone Motorsport Limited, No. 04-00440 (the
"Adversary Proceeding"). On or around January 26, 2005, CART and Brands Hatch
executed a Settlement Agreement disposing of the Adversary Proceeding and the
Brands Hatch Proof of Claim and releasing both CART and Brands Hatch from all
claims arising out of the Agreement, the Brands Hatch Proof of Claim and the
Adversary Proceeding. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Brands Hatch
Proof of Claim was allowed in the amount of $115,000.000.

In connection with CART's bankruptcy filing, based upon filings by
creditors of CART, there may be claims by creditors against CART which could
result in litigation against CART in bankruptcy court. The Company is currently
unable to determine to what extent or whether these asserted and unasserted
claims will be allowed or if they will ultimately result in litigation involving
CART.

On August 5, 2004 the Company was served with a complaint to avoid and
recover preferential transfers filed on behalf of WorldCom, Inc. and MCI, Inc.,
in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The
action alleges that the Company received $1,500,000 in July 2002 which was a
payment within 90 days of the date that WorldCom, Inc. and its subsidiaries
commenced their bankruptcy filing under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The
Company has not filed an answer at this point and is unable to make a
determination as to the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. The range of the
possible loss is up to $1,500,000.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS. The Company has employment agreements with its CEO
and CFO. The employment agreements expire on June 30, 2005.

REVENUE AGREEMENTS. The Company had entered into promoter and sponsorship
agreements that extend through various dates, with the longest date expiring in
the 2008 racing season. Under the promoter agreements, the Company was obligated
to sanction Champ Car World Series racing events and provide related race
management functions. Under the sponsorship agreements, the Company granted
certain corporations official sponsorship status. In return, the corporations
received recognition and status rights, event rights and product category
exclusivity rights. The promoter and sponsor agreements still in effect as of
December 31, 2003 were assumed by Open Wheel, as part of the Agreement discussed
in Note 1.

F-18

Television agreements with various broadcast companies for production,
sales and worldwide distribution of the Company's events ended on December 31,
2003.

TEAM ASSISTANCE. In 2003, the Company provided assistance to certain teams
to ensure that there were a sufficient number of race cars competing in the
Company's series. The Company spent $31.8 million in team assistance during the
2003 race season which was recorded in race distributions. The assistance ended
on December 31, 2003.

ENTRANT SUPPORT PROGRAM. In 2003, the Company provided financial
assistance to teams that participated in the Champ Car World Series, including
teams affiliated with our directors and/or 5% stockholders. The Entrant Support
Program ("ESP") provided up to $42,500 in cash payments to teams, per race, for
each car entered into the series. The agreements with the teams ended on
December 31, 2003. Entrant support program expenses were recorded in race
distributions.

TELEVISION TIME BUYS. In 2003, the Company entered into a time buy
agreement for the 2003 and 2004 race season. However, as a result of the Asset
Purchase Agreement discussed in Note 1 the Company did not promote races in
2004. Therefore, the obligation of both parties subject to the time buy
agreement is non-assertive for the 2004 race season.

13. STOCK OPTION PLANS

1997 STOCK OPTION PLAN. In December 1997, the Board of Directors of the
Company (the "Board") authorized, and the stockholders of the Company approved,
a stock incentive plan for executive and key management employees of the Company
and its subsidiaries, including a limited number of outside consultants and
advisors, effective as of the completion of the Company's initial public
offering (the "1997 Stock Option Plan"). Under the 1997 Stock Option Plan, key
employees, outside consultants and advisors (the "Participants") of the Company
and its subsidiaries (as defined in the 1997 Stock Option Plan) may receive
awards of stock options (both Nonqualified Options and Incentive Options, as
defined in the Stock Option Plan). A maximum of 2,000,000 shares of common stock
are subject to the 1997 Stock Option Plan. Options granted vest pro-rata over a
three-year period. No stock option is exercisable after ten years from the date
of the grant, subject to certain conditions and limitations.

In addition, in December 1997, the Board and the stockholders of the
Company approved a Director Stock Option Plan permitting the granting of
non-qualified stock options ("Director NQSOs") for up to 100,000 shares of
common stock to directors of the Company who are neither employees of the
Company nor affiliates of a race team which participates in CART race events (an
"Independent Director"). Each person who is first elected or appointed to serve
as an Independent Director of the Company is automatically granted an option to
purchase 10,000 shares of Company common stock. In addition, each individual who
is re-elected as an Independent Director is automatically granted an option to
purchase 5,000 shares of Company common stock each year on the date of the
annual meeting of stockholders. Each of the options automatically granted upon
election, appointment or re-election as an Independent Director are exercisable
immediately at a price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the
date of grant. In no event may a Director NQSO be exercised more than ten years
from the date of grant. In addition, each Independent Director may elect to
receive stock options in lieu of any director's fees payable to such
individuals.

No further options will be granted under either the 1997 Stock Option Plan
or the Director's Stock Option Plan.

2001 STOCK OPTION PLAN. In May 2001, the Board authorized and the
stockholders of the Company approved a 2001 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan
("2001 Stock Option Plan"), which provides for grants of stock options to
eligible participants including employees, officers, directors, consultants and
other key persons. The 2001 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan authorizes the grant
to participants of options to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company's
common stock. Options granted vest pro-rata over a three-year period. No stock
option is exercisable after ten years from the date of the grant, subject to
certain conditions and limitations.

No officer may be granted more than 500,000 options during any one year.
Options are granted only to employees, officers, directors, consultants and
other persons providing key services to the Company or a subsidiary and the
purchase price of each option granted cannot be less than 100% of the fair
market value of the common stock on the date of grant.

Options granted under the plan are incentive stock options or
non-qualified stock options as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended. The shares issued upon the exercise of options granted may be
previously unissued shares, reacquired shares, or shares bought in the market.
The purchase price for all shares purchased pursuant to options exercised must
be either paid in cash, or paid in full in common stock of the Company valued at
fair market value on the date of exercise, or a combination of cash and common
stock.

The term of each option may not exceed ten years and, additionally, may
not exceed twelve months following the termination of providing services to the
Company, unless modified by the Compensation Committee of the Board.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company had two reportable segments, sanctioning and race promotions.
In 2003, the Company added "Race Promotions" as a reportable segment. There were
no prior period adjustments relating to the new reportable segment.

Sanctioning encompassed all the business operations of organizing,
marketing and staging all of our open-wheel racing events when we acted as a
sanctioning body as well as corporate expenses. We received a sanction fee from
the event promoter for our services that is either fixed or is based upon a
profit sharing agreement. Sanction fees revenue, sponsorship revenue, television
revenue, engine lease revenue, race distributions and race expenses, television
expenses and administrative expenses were recognized in the sanctioning segment.

Race promotions encompassed all the business operations of marketing and
promoting our open-wheel racing events when we acted as promoter and had
exclusive rights to the event. We received the revenues from the event and were
responsible for the expenses of the event.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company's long-lived assets
were substantially used in the sanctioning segment in the United States. The
Company evaluated performance based on income before income taxes.

F-21

Because we have ceased operations and intend to liquidate our remaining
assets we no longer have race promotion activity. All significant activity
during 2004 was corporate activity.

15. LOSS PER SHARE

Loss per share ("EPS") excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net
loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in
the earnings. Shares contingently issuable relate to shares that would have been
outstanding under certain stock option plans (see Note 13) upon the assumed
exercise of dilutive stock options.

18. CART BANKRUPTCY AND CANCELLATION OF STOCK

On December 16, 2003, CART, filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of
the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court Southern District
of Indiana.

In January 2004, the bankruptcy court approved payments related to
pre-petition employee expense reimbursements and health benefits in the amount
of $28,327.

On February 13, 2004, the assets of CART, the common stock of Pro-Motion
Agency, Inc. and CART Licensed Products, Inc., were sold to Open Wheel for total
cash consideration of $3.3 million less cash on hand of $221,000. The agreement
also included Open Wheel assuming $1.4 million in 2003 prize money to teams who
were not affiliated with Open Wheel and forgiveness of $1.3 million in prize
money due principals of Open Wheel; all of the 2003 prize money was an
obligation of CART, and included in liabilities subject to compromise at
December 31, 2003. In addition, Open Wheel assumed certain promoter, sponsor and
other contracts. Prior to finalizing the sale, CART paid pre-petition payables
in the amount of $492,000 related to the contracts assumed by Open Wheel. The
sale agreement was pursuant to an order of the bankruptcy court at a hearing
held on January 28, 2004. Other contracts assumed by Open Wheel and settlements
entered into in the first quarter of 2004, reduced liabilities subject to
compromise by $162,000 and $180,000, respectively. The reduction was offset by
an increase in accrued payroll of $207,000 related to terminated employment
contracts.

The Company has entered into an agreement whereby it subordinated its
claim for the CART inter-company liability to the other creditors in exchange
for the agreement of the unsecured creditors of CART releasing the Company from
all claims that could be asserted against the Company.

CART continued to operate as debtor-in-possession under the bankruptcy
code in order to wind up its affairs. On August 3, 2004, CART filed CART's
Amended Chapter 11 Plan (the "Plan") and the Second Amended Disclosure Statement
For Amended Chapter 11 Plan Of CART, Inc. (the "Disclosure Statement") with the
bankruptcy court. The Plan provides for the distribution of the asset sale
proceeds and other currently available cash and the liquidation and distribution
of the remaining estate assets to CART's creditors. The Disclosure Statement was
approved by the bankruptcy court on August 3, 2004. The hearing on the
confirmation of the Plan was held on September 13, 2004. On

September 23, 2004, the bankruptcy court entered its Findings Of Fact,

R. Bankr. P. 3020 Confirming CART's Amended Chapter 11 Plan.

An initial distribution of $307,000 was made to CART's creditors on
October 8, 2004 according to the confirmed Plan.

Cash $ 3,402
Other assets 737
Liabilities (2,051)
-------
Net assets $ 2,088

Pursuant to the Plan the Company subordinated its claim against CART to
the benefit of secured and general unsecured creditors. As the Company's claim
against CART is subordinated to other asserted and unasserted claims, the
Company has recorded a reserve of $2,088,000, the entire balance of the
receivable.

A second distribution of $1.1 million was made to CART's creditors on
January 19, 2005.
