==Racing history==
The Swedish Touring Car Championship was created in 1996 as a copy of the successful British Touring Car Championship. Volvo, which had been competing in the BTCC since 1994, partnered with the newly founded, Halmstad-based Flash Engineering racing team, owned by Swedish driver Jan "Flash" Nilsson. Volvo provided financial support and the cars. The team initially raced a Volvo 850, and moved to a S40 in 1998. In 2000, the team moved to Karlstad. The team began racing a Volvo S60 in 2003, and raced those cars through the 2007 season. Following the introduction of Super 2000 rules in 2003, the team took over technical development of both the engines and the chassis from Volvo.
In 2005, Nilsson sold the team to Christian Dahl, and it was renamed Polestar Racing. Polestar entered one Volvo C30, developed from scratch by Polestar in 2008, for the 2011 WTCC season, driven by Robert Dahlgren.〔http://www.fiawtcc.com/Read_News.asp?idNews=693〕 2012 saw Polestar racing in the new Swedish break-away touring car championship TTA〔http://www.touringcartimes.com/article.php?id=6630〕 with a Volvo S60 TTA. 2013 saw TTA and STCC merging back again as one championship,〔http://ttagroup.se/2012/10/22/the-swedish-racing-war-is-over-stcc-and-tta-merges/〕 with Polestar entering five cars for the 2013 season.〔http://www.touringcartimes.com/article.php?id=8444〕
