In Europe, VP developed unleaded racing fuels to meet specifications established by both the Federation Internationale De L'Automobile (FIA) and Federation Internationale De Motorcyclisme (FIM) and has distributed them throughout the continent for the past 7 years. VP's SV-05 racing fuel is the Spec Fuel for the FIA Pro Stock Drag Racing Championships in Europe, while fuels like VP's M8-1, A5 and CSP have been used with success by numerous factory teams on the continent. Drag racing facilities throughout Europe, including its two most notable-Santa Pod Raceway in the United Kingdom and the Hockenheim motorsports facility in Germany-host of the annual "Nitro Olympics of Drag Racing" in August-are the sites of numerous VP-powered championships. In addition, Ricky Carmichael and James (Bubba) Stewart were powered by VP to championships in 2005 and 2006 respectively as part of Team USA in the Motocross des Nations. VP's presence in Europe includes a Warwickshire, England-based distributor serving the entire United Kingdom, while on the continent, customers seeking VP power can find distributors throughout Scandinavia as well as Germany, France, The Netherlands, Poland and Greece. Of all the opportunities spawned by the thawing of the Cold War, who would have foreseen racing as a significant growth market? VP is on the forefront of this phenomenon, with its newest Moscow-based distributor servicing rally and off road racers, along with drag racing, motocross and motorcycle road racing in Russia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Ukraine and other former Soviet republics. Among VP's fastest growing regions is the Middle East, where VP's Manama, Bahrain-based distributor has been servicing countries throughout the Arabian peninsula and Egypt since 2002. VP also has been represented by a distributor in Israel since 2004. VP fueled the 24hr GP at the Bahrain International Circuit as well as the Porsche Super Cup Series held during the F1 event. Increasing numbers of drag racers, off road and rally racers, jet ski enthusiasts and others in the region are learning first-hand about VP's reputation for more power, more torque and cooler operating temperatures. VP's LC6 traction compound is fast becoming the adhesive of choice in this desert climate with exceedingly high temperatures. Farther south, VP's South African distributor is servicing the burgeoning needs of racers in that growing market. Just as racing translates to any language, so too does VP's technology and performance. VP intends to maintain and solidify its position as the true World Leader in Race Fuel Technology for years to come.VP Racing Fuels Address
