          ------------------------------------

               On June 28, 1996, concurrently with the closing of its initial
public offering of securities ("Initial Public Offering"), Grand Prix
Association of Long Beach, Inc. (the "Company"), acquired substantially all of
the assets (the "Assets") of Memphis International Motorsports Park, Inc.
("Seller"). The Assets were acquired pursuant to an Agreement of Purchase and
Sale of Assets, dated as of May 6, 1996, as amended, entered into by and between
the Company and the Seller.

               The purchase price paid by the Company for the Assets was

of Seller, which liabilities were paid off by the Company at the closing of the
acquisition out of the proceeds from the Company's Initial Public Offering, and
$2,500,000 in the form of the newly authorized Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock of the Company, which stock was valued at the same price as the offering
price of the Company's common stock in its Initial Public Offering, or $10.00
per share. The purchase price paid for the Assets was arrived at by arms' length
negotiations between the parties.

               The Assets acquired by the Company, which comprise the Memphis
International Motosports Park, a  motorsports facility located in Millington,
Tennessee, inlcude approximately 375 acres of land (acquired by the Company in

track and road course and approximately 14,000 portable grandstand seats, 5,000
permanent grandstand seats and two sets of bleachers.  The Company intends to
continue to use the Assets in the operation of a motorsports park and, in
addition, the Company intends to use an additional approximately $2,500,000 from
the proceeds of its Initial Public Offering to make improvements to this
motorsports facility in order to turn it into a modern multi-purpose motorsports
facility capable of hosting a wide assortment of motorsports events.

     All of which assets are sometimes collectively referred to as the

     B.   Article I(B) of the Agreement, entitled Consideration, Assumption of
                                                  ----------------------------
Certain Liabilities, is hereby amended by deleting all of the terms and
- -------------------                                                    
provisions thereof and substituting in lieu thereof the following as Article
I(B):

     "B.  Consideration, Assumption of Certain Liabilities.  In consideration
          -------------------------------------------------                  
for the Assets, Grand Prix and Buyer agree as follows:

     1.   On the Closing Date, Seller will receive from Grand Prix a number of
shares of Grand Prix's Series B voting preferred convertible shares, as
hereinafter described, (the "Preferred Stock"), having an aggregate stated value
of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), such
value and number of shares to be based upon the offering price per share of the
shares of common stock of Grand Prix offered by Grand Prix to secure financing
for acquisition of the Assets (the "IPO").  The shares of Preferred Stock shall
be convertible at any time and from time to time on and after June 30, 1997 into
shares of Grand Prix's common stock, which will have the same rights,
preferences and privileges as the common stock being issued in the IPO,  (the
"Common Stock") on a 1 share for 1 share basis subject to adjustment to reflect
any and all stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, options issued
allowing for purchase of Common Stock for less than fair market value, or
similar events, so that the Preferred Stock and conversion rights into Common
Stock with 

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
respect thereto are not diluted in any manner whatsoever after the Closing Date
and prior to conversion into Common Stock.

          The Preferred Stock will bear an aggregate annual cumulative dividend
rate equal to 4.185% of $2,500,000.00 (calculable and payable on a per share
basis on or before each anniversary of Closing or upon conversion of all
remaining Preferred Stock prior to such anniversary) until the date converted.
Dividends shall cease on the date of conversion, or December 31, 1998 or upon
payment of the unassumed indebtedness of Seller referred to below, whichever
shall be earliest.

          If Seller does not convert any of the Preferred Stock into Common
Stock on or prior to December 31, 1998, then Grand Prix shall, at any time
during the month of January, 1999, call and redeem all of the Preferred Stock at
a $.01 per share redemption price and the Buyer shall assume, pay and indemnify
Seller, its shareholders and their legal representatives and heirs from and
against all unpaid loan indebtedness of Seller not assumed by Buyers at Closing
(as set forth on Exhibit "G" hereto) not to exceed the total sum of One Million
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00). If Seller exercises its right to
convert any of the Preferred Stock, then Buyer shall have no obligation with
respect to such unpaid loan indebtedness of Seller not assumed by Buyer at
Closing. When used herein, the phrase "loan indebtedness of Seller not assumed
by Buyer" or "unassumed indebtedness of Seller" shall mean that part of the
total loan or other indebtednesses of Seller (as the same may be restructured in
accordance with this Agreement), which may fluctuate from time to time in the
ordinary course of Seller's business, which is not assumed by Buyer, and shall
not mean any loan indebtedness of Seller incurred after Closing. Any amendments,
modifications, renewals, extensions or other changes to such unassumed
indebtedness of Seller made after Closing shall be subject to approval by Buyer.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Grand
Prix consents to the pledge of the Preferred Stock by Seller as collateral with
respect to such loan indebtedness of Seller not assumed by Buyer.

     2.   Buyer agrees to assume, pay and perform all of Seller's agreements,
duties and obligations (including, but not limited to, the assumption and
payment of $2,500,000.00 of Seller's loan indebtedness) under only those
contracts listed and as provided in Exhibit "E" (the "Assumed Liabilities").  It
is expressly understood and agreed that Buyer shall not be liable for any of the
obligations or liabilities of Seller of any kind and nature other than those
specifically assumed by Buyer under this Agreement."

     C.   Article I(C) of the Agreement, entitled Instruments of Conveyance, is
                                                  -------------------------    
hereby amended by deleting all of the terms and provisions thereof and
substituting in lieu thereof the following as Article I(C):

     "C.  Instruments of Conveyance.  Seller shall deliver assignments, bills of

vest in the Buyer, or at the Buyer's direction Memphis International Motorsports
Corporation, Inc. ("MIMC"), a Tennessee corporation and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Buyer, all right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the
Assets on the dates set forth below."

     D.   Article I(D) of the Agreement, entitled Further Assurances, is hereby
                                                  ------------------           
amended by deleting all of the terms and provisions thereof and substituting in
lieu thereof the following as Article I(D):

     "D.  Further Assurances.  Seller, at any time after the Closing Date, will

execute, acknowledge, and deliver any further deeds, assignments, conveyances,
and other documents, and instruments of transfer, reasonably requested by Buyer
or at Buyer's direction MIMC, and will take any other action consistent with the

direction MIMC for the purpose of assigning, transferring, granting, conveying,
and confirming to Buyer or at Buyer's direction MIMC, or reducing to possession,
any or all property to be conveyed and transferred under this Agreement. If
requested by Buyer or at Buyer's direction MIMC, Seller further agrees to
prosecute or otherwise enforce in its own name for the benefit of Buyer any
claims, rights, or benefits that are transferred to Buyer or at Buyer's
direction MIMC under this Agreement and that require prosecution or enforcement
in Seller's name. Any such action or prosecution or enforcement of claims,
rights, or benefits under this paragraph shall be solely at Buyer's expense or
at Buyer's direction MIMC's expense, unless the action, prosecution or
enforcement is made necessary by a breach of this Agreement by the Seller."

     II.  ARTICLE TWO: CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO SELLER'S PERFORMANCE

Article VII of the Agreement as they relate to Grand Prix shall also relate to
each of the Buyer as applicable.

                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To the Officers and Directors
Memphis International Motorsports Park, Inc.
Memphis, Tennessee
 
  We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Memphis International
Motorsports Park, Inc. as of December 31, 1995, and the related statements of
income (loss), changes in stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Memphis International
Motorsports Park, Inc. as of December 31, 1995, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 6 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations which has raised 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.

               (INFORMATION AT MARCH 31, 1996 AND FOR THE THREE
              MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 IS UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
BUSINESS ACTIVITY
 
  Memphis International Motorsports Park, Inc. ("Memphis") was organized under
the laws of the State of Tennessee on July 25, 1985 for the purpose of owning
and operating a motorsports complex. Prior to 1987 it had been in the
development stage and its activities consisted primarily of acquiring land and
constructing racing facilities.
 
CASH
 
  Memphis considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less, when purchased, to be "cash equivalents". Memphis held no
"cash equivalents" at December 31, 1995.
 
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
 
  Bad debt expense totaled $6,350 for the year ended December 31, 1995. In the
opinion of management, there are no other significant accounts considered to
be uncollectable at year end.
 
DEPRECIATION
 
  Property and equipment is stated at cost for financial reporting purposes.
Depreciation is provided on the straight line method using useful lives
assigned to the asset.
 
METHOD OF ACCOUNTING
 
  Memphis utilizes the accrual method of accounting whereby revenue is
recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when incurred.
 
INVENTORIES
 
  Merchandise inventory is priced at cost including freight.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
  Memphis has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the
Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions, Memphis' taxable income or loss
is passed through to the individual shareholders and they include their
respective shares of these amounts in their personal tax return. Therefore, no
provision for Federal income taxes is includable in the financial statements.
 
ESTIMATES
 
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
 
UNAUDITED INFORMATION AS OF MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
 
  The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 1996 and
1995 reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements of such interim
periods. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items. Interim
results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

  Deferred income from sponsorships and season rentals of suites and
billboards are recognized as revenue monthly during the calendar year on a
straight line basis. All other sources of deferred income are recognized as
revenue as the applicable event is held. Funds received from advance ticket
sales for the NHRA Mid-South Nationals are deposited in a separate bank
account at Tennessee Bank and Trust. As of March 31, 1996, $137,471 was held
in this account, and is designated on the balance sheet as Cash -- restricted.
The NHRA Mid-South Nationals are scheduled to be held in June of 1996.
 
NOTE 5 -- SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS:
 
  Memphis' primary business is the operation of a motorsports complex from
April 1 to October 31 each year. Memphis generally derives its revenue during
this period. The financial statements for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995, therefore, reflect results of operations during part of
Memphis' off-season, during which it incurs expenses in preparation for its
operating season.
 
NOTE 6 -- GOING CONCERN:
 
  Memphis has incurred continuing net operating losses resulting in a
significant accumulated deficit and negative working capital which create
substantial uncertainty concerning Memphis' ability to continue as a going
concern. The ability of Memphis to continue as a going concern and realize its
assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is
dependent upon obtaining profitable operations, a continuation of present
financing, and the provision of additional capital by shareholders as
required.

                  GRAND PRIX ASSOCIATION OF LONG BEACH, INC.
              PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                MARCH 31, 1996
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
  The following unaudited pro forma condensed combining balance sheet as of
March 31, 1996, pro forma statements of operations for the nine months ended
March 31, 1996 and for the year ended June 30, 1995 illustrate the effect of
the acquisition by the Company of substantially all of the net assets of the
Memphis Motorsports Facility (including, but not limited to cash, prepaid
expenses, property and equipment, certain accrued liabilities and deferred
revenues) which is currently anticipated to occur in late June 1996, in
exchange for the assumption of approximately $2,500,000 in liabilities of the
seller which will be repaid by the Company at the closing of the initial
public offering and issuance of $2,500,000 of the Company's Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock as described elsewhere herein (Note 3), the
private placement of 312,500 shares of the Company's Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $2,300,000 which private placement closed
concurrently with the Municipal Bond Offering on June 21, 1996 (Note 1), the
issuance in late June 1996 of $21,500,000 in principal amount of Bonds issued
by SWIDA (Note 2), and the issuance of 1,350,000 shares of Common Stock in
this offering for net proceeds estimated to be $12,065,500 (Note 4). The
Memphis Motorsports Facility acquisition is being accounted for as a purchase,
with the assets acquired and liabilities assumed being recorded at estimated
fair market value. The unaudited pro forma combining balance sheet assumes
that each of these transactions occurred on March 31, 1996 and the unaudited
pro forma combining statements of operations assumes that each of these
transactions occurred at the beginning of the periods presented.
 
  The pro forma adjustments are based upon currently available information and
upon certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable. The
acquisition of the Memphis Motorsports Facility has been recorded based upon
the estimated fair market value of the tangible assets acquired at the date of
acquisition. The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma combining
financial statements represents the Company's preliminary determination of
these adjustments based upon available information. There can be no assurance
that the actual adjustments will not differ significantly from the pro forma
adjustments reflected in the pro forma financial information.
 
  The unaudited pro forma combining financial statements are not necessarily
indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have
been achieved if the foregoing transactions had been consummated as of the
indicated dates. The unaudited pro forma combining financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company
and the Memphis Motorsports Facility, together with the related notes thereto,
included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

    private placement of 312,500 shares of the Company's Series A Convertible
    Preferred Stock, which private placement closed concurrently with the
    closing of the Municipal Bond Offering on June 21, 1996. These shares of
    Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have an $8.00 liquidation and
    redemption value and will automatically be converted into shares of Common
    Stock upon completion of this offering at the lower of $8.00 per share or
    80% of the initial public offering price. The net proceeds from the
    private placement will be used by the Company to establish the debt

    (see Note 2).
 
 2. Represents proceeds from the borrowing of $21,500,000 pursuant to the
    SWIDA Loan net of issuance costs estimated to be $823,000. The SWIDA Loan

    effective yield of approximately 9.1% with interest only payable through
    August 1999, with debt service payments beginning in February 2000 through
    February 2017. The net proceeds from the SWIDA Loan are to be used to fund

</TABLE>
 
  The Series B Mandatorily Reedemable Convertible Preferred Stock has been
  valued at $10.00 per share (the issuance price of the Common Stock in this
  offering). An aggregate of 250,000 shares of Series B Mandatorily
  Convertible Preferred Stock will be issued upon the closing of the
  acquisition of the Memphis Motorsports Facility based on the initial price

  Convertible Preferred Stock will bear a cumulative 4.185% dividend rate and
  is convertible on a one-for-one basis at the option of the holders on or
  after June 30, 1997 into the Company's Common Stock. If the Series B
  Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock has not been converted

  any outstanding Series B Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
  at a nominal consideration plus unpaid dividends and assume specified
  liabilities of the seller not to exceed $1,500,000. The excess of cost over
  fair value of assets acquired has been allocated to fixed assets (including
  land) and intangible assets in the pro forma balance sheet as of March 31,
  1996 based upon management's preliminary estimates. The Company is in the
  process of working with independent consultants to obtain valuations of
  individual assets and the excess purchase price will be determined based
  upon these valuations. Deferred tax liabilities have been recorded for the
  basis

     shareholders and mandatory conversion of the Series A Convertible
     Preferred Stock (See Note 1) into Common Stock.
