1st place finish at the 2004 Le Mans 24 for mail2web.com Porsche 911 GT3 RSR

Toronto, Ontario --- June 14, 2004

mail2web.com, a free world leading web-based email application, and brand of SoftCom Technology Consulting Inc., announces their sponsored car - Petersen Motorsports/White Lightning/mail2web.com Porsche 911 GT3 RSR - has won in the LM-GT class at the 72nd Annual 24 hours of Le Mans. This is now the third consecutive year a mail2web.com sponsored car has won Le Mans 24 in the LM-GT class.

The No. 90 car driven by Jörg Bergmeister, Patrick Long and Sascha Maassen set the standard from as far back as the practice in April. Until the 10th hour of the race, the No. 90 car clearly dominated the class by leading every lap. A 20 minute emergency pit stop to address a broken shift linkage almost ended the hopes of a top finish at this historic event. However, the drivers battled back on the track and in the pits to outlast and outperform their competitors and in the end they prevailed.

This is the second consecutive Le Mans win for Maassen and the first for both Bergmeister and Long. A Porsche entry has now won 6 consecutive years in a row since the GT-class was introduced at Le Mans 24 in 1999.

A sponsor of the Porsche Factory Team during the ALMS season and an official partner of Porsche Motorsport, mail2web.com has sponsored and won at Le Mans 24 in the LM-GT class three consecutive years with a Porsche entry.

"Our success at Le Mans has been absolutely extraordinary these past three years," said Tony Yustein, CEO of SoftCom Technology Consulting Inc. "We are proud to be associated with a team that performed brilliantly after being faced with some difficult mechanical obstacles. The entire team should be very pleased with their accomplishment this year."
