"One driver who did not participate in the test but will be participating in the race this weekend is three-time Atlantic race winner Tonis Kasemets. The Estonia-born racer—who finished third in both races of a doubleheader last season at Road America in his lone Atlantic weekend of the year—will drive the No. 35 Polestar Motor Racing machine."

RESULTS: After starting 4 days too late for even 1 test lap, Tonis strapped into his Mazda powered Swift .016 - ready to rock.  He gained momentum with each lap.  Excellent team chemistry - a very good fit.  Kasemets started P11 and made brave yet safe moves to P7 within the 1st lap.  A 1st lap accident left a large debris area - therefore the majority of the race moved under yellow.  Finally, 14 laps under Green and Tonis decided to simply hold his line.  His lap times were up there with the Top 3, but traffic became an issue.  He's extremely happy with finishing P7 and is "Completely confident that the Top 3 is only a matter of time - just a few more laps."  And is "Very much looking forward to Utah."

Sincere thanks to those who pitched in at the 11th hour, to make sure Tonis was at the Atlantics' Season Opener at Sebring with Polestar Racing.  Special thanks - to the Griffith's and Bruce Potter - for seeing in Tonis - what we ALL see.  Champion, gentleman, passionate, discipline and completely focused on staying at the TOP of the Podium.

Room for Sponsorships still available on the car too! 
Contact either Tonis or Jill for more information. 
Thanks to all who remain on board the "Team Tonis" Train!
