Naples, ME — Pro All Stars Series (PASS) President Tom Mayberry announced today that Sunoco Race Fuel will return as the official fuel of the Pro All Stars series as well as the spec fuel for both the PASS Super Late Model North and South series. 2008 will mark the eighth season that PASS has been fueled by Sunoco.

“I’m particularly pleased to welcome Sunoco Race Fuel back to the PASS family of sponsors, “said Mayberry.” Their northeast distributors, New England Racing Fuel stepped up to the plate and supported this series before we’d even run a single race. PASS has grown a great deal from our ten race series in 2001. In 2008 we will sanction over fifty races in five divisions from Georgia to Nova Scotia, and Sunoco Race Fuel has played an important role in the growth of our racing series. Thanks to New England Racing Fuel we have had a fuel testing program in place for eight years. They’ve distributed thousands of dollars in awards to our competitors, and their product is readily available anywhere that PASS races. We appreciate their continued support of the Pro All Stars Series, and short track racing everywhere.”
