Speedway, IN (April 3, 2018)

Officials with the American Rally Association (ARA) announced today a multi-year agreement with VP Racing Fuels. Effective immediately, VP Racing Fuels will be known as the Official Fuel of the American Rally Association.

VP Racing Fuels will bring their world-renowned competition fuels to all ARA National Championship Series events in 2018. Not a spec or mandated fuel, VP Racing Fuels is giving all ARA Stage Rally teams the opportunity to opt into preferred pricing when pre-ordering VP Racing MS109 fuel ahead of any ARA National rally event. Through their technical team and network of fuel distributors, VP Racing Fuels will deliver pre-ordered competition fuel directly to events. This is a tremendous benefit not only to the American Rally Association, but more importantly, to our competitors.

“We’re extremely pleased to announce this multi-year partnership,” said Paul Giblin, National Brand Manager for ARA. “VP Racing Fuels has long been recognized as a world leader in the manufacture and distribution of competition fuels. Combine this with the ability to have VP Racing Fuel delivered safely to rally teams at our ARA National Championship Series events across the country and we couldn’t be more pleased.”

Starting with the Oregon Trail Rally, scheduled for April 20-22, 2018, Stage Rally teams can pre-order VP Racing MS109 fuel by calling the local VP Racing Fuels distributor in Portland, OR at (503) 286-9019 no later than April 3, 2018. Additional information will be available in the coming weeks regarding the pre-order and delivery of VP Racing Fuel for remaining 2018 ARA National Championship Series events.

“Everyone at VP got hooked on Stage Rally years ago,” said Bruce Hendel, VP Racing Fuels Vice President of Sales – Race Fuels & Consumer Products. “We’ve fueled rally champions in North America, the Asian Pacific Rally, and have a global technical partnership with M Sport. Partnering with the ARA in their second year and beyond is something we’re all excited about.”
