Tom Toparis Racing Daytona 200 This Weekend with Stop & Seal
Tom Toparis has rejoined Astro MAR Racing, a team the Goulburn-based rider last rode with during the British SuperBike series in 2022, aboard a GSX-R750 with the support of Stop and Seal, to race the iconic Daytona 200 this weekend. Press Release: Stop & Seal.
Stop & Seal Racing with 666 Motorsports took to SMSP for round two of the Summer Night Series by the St George Motorcycle Club, with Tom Toparis racing a YZF-R6 ASBK SuperSport machine to pole and two race wins.
Stop & Seal’s Robbie Bolger: “We made no secret of the fact that we wanted to support Tom to make the next step in his career, so when the opportunity came up for him to race in the US, we got right behind him. Everyone at Stop and Seal racing is excited to see how Tommy goes in the iconic event. While we’re preparing the fleet of Stop and Seal race bikes for the next round of the ASBK, we’re also actively working on more opportunities for Tom on the world stage throughout the year.”

Tom Toparis: “I’m just very happy to be able to have the opportunity to be part of such a massive event here at Daytona and also it’s great to be in the USA Racing for the first time. It’s all come about quite last minute actually. My old BSB team owner Stu rang me up a few weeks ago and told me that there would be a bike available for me in Daytona. Obviously I was not going to pass that chance up! We’re here at Daytona setting up as we speak. It’s such an amazing place, the home of Motorsport. Big thank you to Astro MAR Racing, Stop and Seal, PME EV, Leda nutrition, KYT Helmets & RST leathers.”
Racing the Daytona 200, now a SuperSport category due to the incredible speed and forces at play, Tom is set to head on track for Practice and Qualifying before the race itself on Saturday.
