The Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council (MSR&PC) and the Bandit Big Rig Series have teamed up to present the Bandit Big Rig Series Biodiesel 20. As an added bonus, MSR&PC will have a few of the bearded celebrities from DieselSellerz, stars of Discovery’s “Diesel Brothers” in attendance to showcase their biodiesel build “Indomitus,” which was highlighted on a pair of episodes, the second of which airs 9 p.m. Aug. 20.

 

“Biodiesel is a tough fuel and we’re proud to partner with the Bandit Big Rig Series to showcase biodiesel through this signature event,” says Jim Willers, an MSR&PC director for District 7. “The Big Rig Series is well known for its exciting races and the power of the rigs. We think biodiesel is a perfect complement for the event.”

 

The race in Elko will highlight biodiesel throughout the day with an MSR&PC Fan Series Truck Show, a Bandit Meet & Greet and during the races when the green flag drops.

 

“We still have seats left, including our VIP tickets, which get you first class treatment, food, drinks, reserved seating & a merchandise voucher, and an education seminar presented by Minnesota Soybean Research & Promotion Council’s experts on all things Biodiesel ” said Jason Johnson, general manager of Bandit Big Rig.  “There will be a lot going on, including the truck show, activities for the entire family, and the Bandit meet n’ greet starting at 5 p.m. You don’t want to miss this event!”
