Newton Oil Company
Inc Announces Dragon Racing Fuels
Lafayette, Indiana (10/31/2008) -
Performance Products Inc, a division of Newton Oil
Company Inc, out of Lafayette, Indiana is pleased
to announce a new line of racing fuels. Dragon Racing
Fuels will offer a complete line of race fuels for
drag racing, sprint cars, motocross, supercross
and marine performance arena. In addition, Dragon
Racing Fuels has introduced 3 new state of the art
formulations with superior performance for the motorcycle
market. These fuels were designed by legendary race
fuel formulator Jim Meiser. When asked about Jim,
Susan Meiser proudly stated “Jim Meiser worked
thirty years for a major oil refiner starting in
the R&D before being part of the new race fuel
division. Hand blends became production fuels with
influential input from the racer, dyno results,
and even testing at home on his own equipment aided
by both his boys, Kurt and Kyle. With the demand
for unleaded fuels, blends were tested in 1993 on
Volusia Speedway with the help of the Loecher’s
Finish Line Racing School finding success under
the scrutiny of various manufactures and Smokey
Yunick. Marine Motors, asphalt, dirt racers, IHRA
and NHRA drag racers, engine builders, and race
organizations all consumed his time and he loved
it. Fondness for motorcycles drew much time and
attention from Jim. He did dyno work for years with
Ducati’s Ferracci. Kenny Tolbert, tuner for
Chris Carr, George Fitts, owner of Keystone Racing,
Kenny Roberts, and Wayne Rainey were just some of
those he felt privileged to work with. The endorsement
of a motorcycle racer brought years of development
and friendship through 1993, 1994, 1995, NHRA Pro
Stock Motorcycle Championship by Dave Schultz, his
wife Meredith and tuner Greg Cope. They were great
years and wonderful victories for all.
The twelve years that followed found Jim in
another startup situation. Again, he was developing
blends and power products of quality to be put
into production. Developing blends, locating,
and ordering chemicals, working with racers, trying
to satisfy race associations, helping engine builders,
trying to encourage sales in the eastern area
of the country, all of these were dealt with each
and every day.
A relationship developed with Rich Conrath of
Innovative Motorcycle Research.
Blends were found to aid Rich’s Buell in
the Pro Thunder class of AMA. Respect and sharing
of information continued prompting dyno work by
Rich on the last blends from Jim attracting the
attention of Newton Oil. Acceptance by the racer
and the success of this fuel will be such a tribute
to a wonderfully honest and good person, ahead
of his time and with believing winning isn’t
everything, it’s all there is.”
These 3 new performance products are geared
towards the motorcycle industry along with the
complete line of Tarragon racing fuels and are
now available along with the support racers have
come to know from Newton Oil. The three new fuels
are in our Legend series named after Jim and provide
the racer with the edge to place them in the front
of the sport. Our Legend Pro series meets the
unleaded fuel specifications of the AMA supercross
rules. Mark Ticen, Fuel Sales for Newton Oil,
