“Palm Beach International Raceway is one of the premier tracks in the country,” said Mark Klein, VP-Southeast. “Virtually all the NHRA top teams—Pro Stock, Top Fuel, Pro Mod, etc.—were testing at PBIR during the off season and the track’s new surface got rave reviews. The road course is also generating lots of buzz. The SCCA and Ferrari events held in January and February will be repeated next year and the track is on the cusp of booking several other very high profile events. We’re truly excited about working with the PBIR staff and look forward to providing quality VP fuels there for many years to come.”
