Pennsylvania-based Fuel Factory, a race fuel producer built for racers by racers, has been announced as the Official Fuel of the Drag Illustrated Winter Series and Bradenton Motorsports Park. The partnership unites two powerhouse brands dedicated to advancing the sport of drag racing, delivering top-tier performance and unforgettable on-track experiences.
“Fuel Factory is thrilled to partner with Drag Illustrated and Bradenton Motorsports Park,” said Mia Tedesco, CFO of Fuel Factory. “We’re committed to supporting the venues and organizations that bring the best drag racing events to life. Bradenton Motorsports Park is well known for iconic events and provides a fantastic opportunity for showcasing Fuel Factory year around. Combine that with Drag Illustrated’s passion and commitment to celebrating the sport of drag racing, and this partnership is a natural fit. Together, we’re fueling the passion of racers and fans alike!”
Fuel Factory burst onto the motorsports scene with a singular focus on creating performance-driven race fuels. Developed and refined over the past year in collaboration with top engine builders and racers, Fuel Factory offers a suite of more than 20 unique blends designed to meet and exceed the needs of the global motorsport community.
“We are performance-driven, built for racers by racers,” says the brand’s mission statement. “You won’t find any fluff, add-ons, or snake oil here. We are focused on racing fuel, plain and simple. We want to go fast, we want to win, and we want the same for you.”
“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Michael [Tedesco], Mia [Tedesco], Marc [Wesler], and the entire team at Fuel Factory,” said Wes Buck, Founder & Editorial Director of Drag Illustrated. “We see ourselves as disruptors in the drag racing industry, and the gang at Fuel Factory does, too. There’s a tremendous amount of synergy here, and we’re excited to work together in pursuit of our vision for the sport of drag racing.”
Buck continued, “Bradenton Motorsports Park is one of the most iconic drag racing venues in the world and, of course, the home of the Drag Illustrated Winter Series, so it makes perfect sense for Fuel Factory to plant their flag here. While many of the biggest names in drag racing frequent Bradenton, it’s also regularly occupied by a wide variety of racers—from sportsman racers to street/strip enthusiasts to Top Fuel and Funny Car competitors. If you’re serious about making a mark in this community, Bradenton, Florida, is a great place to be attached to.”
With the Drag Illustrated Winter Series and Bradenton Motorsports Park serving as a hub for world-class drag racing, this new partnership ensures Fuel Factory’s cutting-edge products will be at the heart of some of the sport’s most exciting events. Fuels will be available on-site through an evolving distribution network, providing easy access for racers seeking a competitive edge.
