VP Racing Lubricants adds huge contingency to FASTRAK Racing Series

VP Racing Lubricants has added a new contingency program for the FASTRAK Racing Series powered by Chevrolet Performance. The contingency has a retail value of over $200, as a case of high performance lubricants (12 quarts) will be awarded to one driver each race. The winner of the lubricant will be determined after qualifying, when the overall fast qualifier will draw a number 1 through 24 to determine the finishing position that will receive the award.

“The team at VP Racing has been great to work with,” said FASTRAK General Manager DJ Irvine, “They really do everything they can to help out the drivers and we can’t thank them enough for their support of the FASTRAK Racing Series.”

VP Racing Lubricants has lines of both fully synthetic as well as blended lubricants to satisfy the needs of all racers. The lubricants are loaded with zinc and phosphorus, along with other anti-wear additives to improve engine wear.  

The contingency will make its debut at the 14th Annual FASTRAK Triple Crown which will see the FASTRAK Racing Series powered by Chevrolet Performance in action on three consecutive nights on Memorial Day Weekend. The weekend kicks off on May 25th at 311 Motor Speedway for $2,000 to win. The series will then head to Princeton Speedway on May 26th for another $2,000 to win feature. The Triple Crown will conclude on May 27th at Wythe Raceway with a $3,000 to win finale.

“At VP we get to work with a great number of racers and engine builders,’ said Richard Glady, VP Racing Fuels Sales Manager – Lubricants. “These Crate engine builders are as good as they come, and we are looking forward to working with all of them this year. For the great majority who already like our fuel… they’re going to love our oils.”
