Shell Lubricants has announced that the 24th annual Shell Rotella SuperRigs truck beauty contest will be held June 22-24 at the Sacramento 49er Travel Plaza in Sacramento, Calif.
Truckers from across the United States and Canada will compete for more than $10,000 in cash and prizes, while 12 lucky contestants will win the bragging rights of appearing beside their award winning truck in the 2007 Shell Rotella SuperRigs calendar.
Trucks are judged by industry professionals who work for major trucking publications and broadcast companies. Judges will score the rigs on exterior appearance, design, detail/finish, originality and workmanship. In total, 18 working trucks will receive awards for Best of Show, Tractor, Tractor/Trailer Combination and Classic categories.
The contest is free to all participants. Every entrant will receive a gift package consisting of: one gallon of Shell Rotella T 15W-40 Heavy-Duty Engine Oil, one gallon of Shell Rotella ELC Extended Life Coolant/Antifreeze, one tube of Shell Retinax LX Heavy-Duty Grease, one quart of Shell Spirax EW Extended Warranty Gear Oil, a T-shirt and baseball cap with the Shell Rotella SuperRigs logo and a 2006 Shell Rotella SuperRigs calendar.
Entrants can register onsite upon arrival and enter the judging line at their convenience. Judging will take place between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, June 22 and 23; and from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, June 24.
Judging takes about 20 minutes and contestants do not need to be present to win. If they must leave to deliver or pick up a load, any prize they are awarded will be shipped to them. The presentation ceremony for the awards will take place at 1:30 pm on Saturday, June 24.
Along with the above categories, awards will also be given in specialized categories such as “Best Chrome,” “Best Theme,” “Best Mural,” “Best Lights,” “People’s Choice” and several others. The Best Lights judging will be held at dusk on Friday evening. The People’s Choice award will be voted on throughout the event by all contestants and spectators.
