	Goodyear Tire - News Release Index
		Gibara said that despite operating at less than 70 percent of capacity, no other industry "has moved more dynamically and energetically over the past two years than the auto industry." The Goodyear executive was today's keynote speaker at Auto-Tech 99, the annual conference of the Automotive Industry Action Group, at the Cobo Conference Center here.
		Gibara credited the expanding use of computers with helping auto makers reduce the time it takes to design and engineer a new car from six years just a decade ago to less than two years today.
		Gibara said the trend is illustrated by Goodyear's global strategic alliance with Japan's Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. The alliance, which takes effect Sept. 1, is expected to increase Goodyear's sales revenue by 20 percent and make it the world's largest tire maker.

		Gibara was confident the countries will implement the project but warned the effects will be largely monetary.
