Tobener began racing as a teenager, initially with mini import trucks before transitioning to motorcycles. Early track time at
Moroso Motorsports Park in
Florida helped cultivate his interest in motorsports. Competing in events organized by the National Mustang Racers Association (NMRA) and the National Muscle Car Association (NMCA), Tobener earned multiple victories and championships, gaining recognition for his performance and dedication. In 2014, he became the first driver to record a seven-second pass in the NMRA Edelbrock Renegade class, securing the championship that year. He was also an early adopter of
Holley EFI technology, which contributed to his success. Tobener later founded Tobener Motorsports, a performance shop offering upgrades, parts, and consulting services. == References ==
