VP RACING FUELS NAMED 'OFFICIAL
FUEL' OF THE PDRA
The recently formed Professional Drag
Racers Association (PDRA) today named
VP Racing Fuels as the “Official Fuel
Supplier” for the all-eighth-mile drag
racing series. In addition, VP Racing
Fuels will sponsor a Low Qualifier
award for Extreme Pro Stock at each of
eight scheduled PDRA events this year.
“We’re very happy to be associated
with the PDRA,” VP Racing Fuels
Director of Marketing Steve Scheidker
stated. “We’ve been a longtime
supporter and fuel supplier for
eighth-mile outlaw doorslammer racing
and this relationship with PDRA
further demonstrates our commitment to
this important segment of drag
racing.”
PDRA race teams also can look forward
to seeing a VP Racing Fuels truck
providing exclusive on-site sales at
each PDRA event.
“VP offers the best fuels on the
market for racing on the ragged edge
while still providing the best
protection for high-dollar,
high-performance

drag racing engines,” said Jason
Rueckert, VP’s Regional
Manager-Midwest. “So we feel it’s
vitally important to actually be at
the track and make these fuels
available to PDRA teams. We also
encourage racers to take advantage of
our full-time professional tech
support staff, who can advise them on
fuel selection and tuning.”
PDRA Race Director Bob Harris said VP
Racing Fuels also will provide spec
fuels this season for the Extreme Pro
Stock class, though specific blends
have not yet been confirmed.
“We are thrilled and thankful to have
an industry leader like VP Racing
Fuels throw its support behind the
PDRA in our inaugural year,” Harris
said. “Most importantly, though, I
think VP’s involvement will greatly
benefit our race teams, which remains
our first priority.”
