After launching in 1975 with one groundbreaking race fuel formula, VP Racing met and surpassed its first goal, bringing more power to the drag strip, the company said. During the following five decades, it introduced more than 80 unique fuel formulas to every form of motorsport around the globe. Additionally, the company extended the VP Racing brand to the development of other product categories, including motor oil, lubricants, coolants for on-track and off, outdoor equipment fuel, fuel additives and appearance products for consumer and commercial applications.
