Indianapolis, Ind. -For the first time in Championship Off Road Racing history, an exclusive fuel supplier has been added to supply and distribute racing fuel for the series.

Torco Racing Fuels, the Official Fuel for IHRA and ASA, will join the CORR Lucas Oil Series in 2005. Evan Knoll, Founder and President of Torco, is a racer himself, competing as a Funny Car driver in IHRA Drag Racing Series.

"We're looking forward to playing in the dirt," said Knoll. "I was hooked the first time I saw the racing. This will not be a one year deal; we are looking forward to a long term commitment with the series."

"We at Torco Race Fuels understand the value of producing a product you can depend on, that's why we go that extra mile to ensure the product that you can put in your gas tank or fuel cell is the best possible product it can be, time after time."

"We are there to support the racers," said Brian Pfeiffer, General Manager of Torco Racing Fuels. "Having a fuel supplier will help each team. This (CORR) is an exciting sport and we are proud to be a part of it. We are coming to the CORR Lucas Oil Series to provide a good quality fuel for best performance."

"All of us at Championship Off Road Racing feel this is a major step toward safer racing with more balanced competition. Also, drivers will not have the danger or hassle of transporting their own fuel to each event," said CORR President Marty Reid.

As the "Exclusive" Fuel of CORR, all teams will be required to buy their fuel on site at each CORR event. So teams will have a chance to test the fuel before the 2005 season begins, engine builders can contact the staff at Torco for Dyno testing fuel.

Additional advantages to the racers include safer fuel blends, which will eliminate the use of additives. Some of these additives have been proven to be harmful to humans. CORR looks at these additives in the same way major sports organizations look at steroids. The danger far outweighs the advantages.

Torco will provide staff members at each CORR Lucas Oil Series event to administer the program, the sale of fuel, as well as post race fuel esting. Program implementation details will follow at a later date.
