Royal Purple Angler of the Year

American Bass Anglers announced today Royal Purple Synthetic Oil will continue to offer a special “Royal Purple Angler of the Year” program for the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Weekend Series tournament trail for the 2010 season.

The program is designed to reward the top anglers that use Royal Purple marine and automotive products. The top Boater and Co-Angler (by points) who uses Royal Purple products will be eligible to win up to $10,000 and $5,000 respectively. The year-end rewards will be based on a 100 to 1 ratio and anglers can receive 100 times their investment. For example; Boaters who purchase up to $100 in Royal Purple products and receive 100 times their investment or $10,000 and Co-Angler who purchase up to $50 in Royal Purple products and receive 100 times their investment or $5,000.

Anglers have asked for sponsor rewards programs for some time and through Royal Purple’s Angler of the Year program this void is filled. Everyone realizes it takes sponsorship to support programs and thanks to Royal Purple this is the beginning of many programs that will grow the Weekend Series. By participating, anglers will not only receive bonus money but also receive major benefits from using Royal Purple products such as; increased fuel economy, increased speed and performance, increased motor life through decreased engine wear and insure programs like this continue.

Royal Purple manufactures high performance lubricants for most automotive, industrial, marine, motorcycle and racing applications. Benefits recognized by anglers are documented with independent tests and user testimonials such as; increased horsepower and torque, reduced wear, improved fuel economy, reduced heat, and reduced emissions.

About Royal Purple: Royal Purple, Ltd is a privately-held company headquartered in Porter, TX focusing exclusively on developing and producing state-of-the-art lubricants that will out-perform other synthetic oils.

In marine products, Royal Purple offers 2-Cycle TCWIII, the best synthetic oil in the business. For use in both pre-mix and oil injected outboards, this product increases performance and decreases wear in both standard and high performance outboards. The oil is ashless which minimizes port deposits and increases spark plug life with a cleaner burn.

Royal Purple’s Max-Gear is a synthetic gear lube that makes gears run smoother, quieter, cooler, and longer. It out-performs other marine gear lubes through combining the highest quality synthetic oils with Royal Purples’ proprietary Synslide® additive technology.
