Champion Racing Oils are "Purpose-Built" for use in all competition and race engines especially those using flat tappet or roller cams operating at high RPM's and requiring high-pressure valve springs.

Asked about his fifth win for Champion in as many starts, Hafertepe replied, "This is incredible. We really didn't have the best car early on. We were way to tight and I had to start making it work, especially in three and four where they were just eating us up but just hats off to my guys and Champion Racing Oil."
