    VP RACING FUELS EXPANDS PRESENCE AT VIRGINIA MOTORSPORTS PARK

    SAN ANTONIO, TX (June 7, 2006) VP Racing Fuels, Inc., the Official Racing Fuel of the NHRA, has been named the Presenting Sponsor for the Lucas Oil Division 1 event July 14-16 at Virginia Motorsports Park in Dinwiddie, Virginia. As part of the sponsorship, VP’s fuels will be available for sale on site at the July points race. This is in addition to the exclusive fuel service VP will provide at the NHRA National Event at VMP on October 6-8 as part of its Official Racing Fuel sponsorship.

    "VP fueled each of the NHRA National Events previously held at Dinwiddie,” Jim Kelly, VP’s Regional Manager, pointed out. “Now that Bryan Pierce and Virginia Motorsports Park have signed with the NHRA, we’re looking forward to getting back to that great facility not only at the Divisional Event in July, but also as a part of the October return to Virginia of John Force, Warren Johnson, Bernstein/Budweiser and the rest of the Pro and Sportsman racers that make NHRA events such a spectacle."

    "Virginia and VP Racing have always been a very popular combination – as we fuel drag, oval track, motocross and road racing events throughout the state,” Kelly continued. “In addition to working with Dinwiddie, our race fuels are sold at Virginia Motor Speedway in Saluda and throughout the state through our extensive dealer network."

    Tech support or dealer information can be obtained by calling VP at 302.368.1500 or by visiting vpracingfuels.com.

    VP Racing is the Official Racing Fuel of NHRA Championship Drag Racing, as well as exclusive fuel supplier and/or sponsor of AMA (American Motorcycle Association) Supercross; Champ Car Atlantic; National Mustang Racing Association (NMRA); Star Mazda; SKUSA (Superkarts! USA); and Stars of Karting, among many others.

    VP Racing has been manufacturing the best fuels for motorsports since 1975, currently producing more than 60 unique blends.
