Andersen Racing Sets Three of Top Four Times
In Star Mazda Qualifying
At Mazda Raceway Saturday

SALINAS, Calif., May 22 - Just as they did at the test at O'Reilly Raceway
Park on May 7-8, Andersen Racing's Star Mazda drivers set three of the top
four times during qualifying for Round 3 of the Star Mazda Championship
presented by Goodyear Saturday at Mazda Raceway.

Anders Krohn will start second, Tristan Vautier will start third and Mikael
Grenier will start fourth for the Palmetto, Fla.-based team in tomorrow's
45-minute race, which is scheduled to get off to a standing start at 9:15
a.m. local time.

The top eight cars were within 1 second of Conor Daly's pole-winning lap,
and Krohn's flyer was just 0.153 of a second off Daly's time.

Krohn, a native of Stavanger, Norway who is now based in Houston, led a big
portion of the qualifying session until Daly just edged ahead of the
1:21.028 (99.432 miles per hour) lap that "The Viking" ran in his No. 47. It is
sponsored by Trallfa Industries, Colosseum Dental, Norse Cutting &
Abandonment, Bring Logistics US Inc., SR Transport, ZATGraphics.com, Rioja Tapas
Restaurant, Eagles Canyon Raceway and Repcon Media.

Vautier, of Corenc, France, had a qualifying time of 1:21.055 (99.399 mph)
with his Sebring-winning No. 38, which is sponsored by Moulin T.P., Cecibon,
Circuit du Laquis and Fontanel Promotion.

Grenier, of Stoneham, Quebec, qualified with a time of 1:21.192 (99.231
mph). His No. 17 welcomes a new sponsor this week, Slow Cow relaxation drink.
It joins his other supporters, April Super Flow, NAPA Auto Parts, HS Telecom
and Desharnais.

Daly's pole did not break Richard Kent's track record of 1:19.935, which
was set in 2008 in an Andersen Racing car.

Andersen Racing has its own 1-mile road course test track at its
headquarters in Palmetto, Fla., Andersen RacePark. The team, which is sponsored by
Allied Building Products Corp., also has an international, national and
regional karting team and a Firestone Indy Lights team in addition to its Star
Mazda squad.

Post-qualifying quotes follow:

Anders Krohn: "It was a very good qualifying session for us. The car was
very stable. We were P1 for quite a while, but then Conor piqued us at the
end. That was a shame because the team, Tristan, Mikael and I have been
working flat-out all weekend. But we're on the front row, which is always good.
One of my sponsors, Bring Logistics, is here this weekend so we'll try to
win for them tomorrow."

Tristan Vautier: "It was a good qualifying session. We didn't get the
pole so you always want to do better, but we had solid results. The team did a
good job and gave us all great cars.

"This track is awesome. It's very challenging. On my fastest lap in
qualifying I made a really small mistake in Turn 10 because I was pushing hard.

"The race is going to be a different story than qualifying. It's 45
minutes long. We need to have a good start, and then stay out of trouble and see
what we can do. I have to thank the team though for giving us all good
cars."

Mikael Grenier: "We tried something yesterday afternoon that didn't work,
so we made a big change before qualifying and the car was quite good. I
don't think the field has ever been as tight as this.

"We can still improve my car before the race. I feel good about the race
tomorrow. Qualifying was fine; we were very close to the pole."
