VP Racing Fuels Takes On Pro Mod At The PowerFest!
 VP Racing Fuels has officially thrown their hat in as the title sponsor of the Ultimate Pro Mod Showdown at the RPM Magazine Family PowerFest & Media Weekend presented by Lucas Oil Products.
The weekend event will be contested June 25th - 27th at the world class Grand Bend Motorplex (Grand Bend, Ontario, Canada) with the VP Racing Fuels Ultimate Pro Mod Showdown, the weekend's BIG SHOW, taking place Saturday June 26th.
 Pro Mod racing starts Saturday at noon so make sure you get there early to see all the action in the pits as not only the Pro Mods are in the house but also the Quick 32 Sportsman Series presented by NAPA Auto Parts and Grand Bend's own Thunder Series competitors will be racing all weekend long! Friday night will be a test & tune madhouse with Sunday hosting the eliminations of Q32, more of Grand Bend's Thunder Series along with Pro Mod testing!
"We really want to thank VP for coming onboard with us once again for our event," explained RPM Editor Chris Biro. "They understand the philosophy behind what we do with both RPM Magazine and our events. We obviously do things differently, for 11 years now RPM has stayed tried and true to the grassroots of Fast Doorslammer and Outlaw Drag Racing while also appealing to the street machine crowd, which is exactly what our goal is with any event we host. Keeping it real for everyone is just what RPM does best and that to me is why VP Racing Fuels is such a good fit. They (VP) are continually researching new and innovative ways to improve upon existing or create new products for motorsports, not just the elite of the sport. They have a long term goal, they are not here today and gone tomorrow and work for the sport behind the scenes as well. We enjoy working with VP at every opportunity possible, and the Ultimate Showdown can only be a better package for both racer's and fans with their presence."
"We're really pleased to be part of the weekend at Grand Bend." stated Jim Kelly, Regional Manager, NE North America and Europe. "We're there every year as Official Fuel Supplier for the IHRA but any opportunity to return to that area is a good one. The track's great, the racers are a blast and the area itself has a lot to offer. Now that Environment Canada has allowed us to distribute our very popular leaded drag race fuels to our customers there, it looks like things are coming back to normal very quickly. Randy Lungal, who runs VP Ontario, will be there all weekend to connect with our existing and potential customers. He'll have VP race fuel, jugs, and some of our new design Mad Scientist t-shirts available. If anyone wants to pre-order fuel please call 905.478.3835 or write vpontario@aol.com"
Biro added, "Expect the VP Racing Fuels Ultimate Pro Mod Showdown to attract over 20 of the world's top Pro Modified teams from 2 countries to battle it out in an ultimate high-power entertainment experience at the PowerFest!
