(Nasdaq/NMS:ACTN - news) Tuesday announced that within eight weeks after the Feb. 1 grand opening of SpeedMall, a motorsports-related virtual online shopping mall located through the company's www.goracing.com Web site, online orders reached $3.0 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 1999, Action acquired the goracing.com site through a merger between the company's wholly-owned subsidiary Action Interactive Inc. and Tech 2000 Worldwide Inc. Action's newly acquired Webmasters enhanced the site's design and content, adding SpeedMall and the goracing.com community to its list of features.

The Web site now attracts more than 500,000 unique users per week. Said Fred Wagenhals, Action chairman, president and chief executive officer, ''We felt that goracing.com and SpeedMall would be a success and results thus far show that our e-commerce strategy is on target. The Internet is fast becoming the medium of choice for motorsports enthusiasts to locate racing-related news, entertainment and merchandise, and goracing.com is the best source on the Web for answering consumer needs across multiple motorsports categories.''
