Valvoline racing formula still has a good amount of ZDDP. They do make 10w30 racing oil in that formulation that protects flat tappets just fine. In a roller engine though, you don't need such a high concentration of ZDDP(zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate) because of the large reduction in friction that is afforded by a full roller valvetrain.
