EXTENDS PARTNERSHIP WITH VP RACING FUELS
VP to Continue as Official Fuel Through 2017
SAN ANTONIO, TX (February 2, 2015) The Professional Drag
Racers Association (PDRA) today announced it has extended
its partnership with VP Racing Fuels, which will be
designated “Official Fuel of PDRA” through 2017. As part
of the agreement, VP will provide trackside fuel service
for the all-eighth-mile drag racing series and post season
awards up to $1000 in each class for the series
championship.
“We are excited that VP Racing Fuels has not only
returned, but stepped up their commitment to the PDRA in a
major way,” said Mike Congdon, PDRA Senior Vice President
of Marketing. “VP has chosen to join our ‘Official’ status
brands, and forged a three-year agreement with continued
growth in mind.”
“We’ve been committed to eighth-mile outlaw door-slammer
racing for a long time and we’re very pleased with PDRA’s
efforts to keep this important segment of drag racing
viable,” said Chris Wall, VP’s Chief Marketing Officer.
“For racing on the ragged edge as PDRA competitors do, VP
offers the best performing fuels on the market while still
providing the best protection for these high-dollar,
high-performance drag racing engines. We encourage racers
to use the convenient Fuel Pre-Order process we’ve set up
with the series to have the fuel they need delivered
straight to the track.”
