Monster DieselTM’s parent company, Alkane, Inc. “Alkane” (PINK SHEETS: ALKN), announced today its partnership with the Maryland Motor Truck Association (MMTA) as the Title Sponsor of the 2009 Maryland State Truck Driving Championships.
This year marks the 62nd anniversary of the Championships, which will take place on Saturday, June 13 at the Maryland State Fairgrounds in Timonium. The MMTA’s Safety Management Council developed the awards in 1947 to highlight and celebrate the skills of Maryland’s finest truck drivers. MMTA is a nonprofit member driven trade organization that has been serving Maryland’s commercial trucking industry since 1935. Today, MMTA is one of the largest trucking associations in the country, representing over 1,000 member companies.
Alkane develops, manufactures, and distributes superior fuel additives. The company’s flagship product, Monster DieselTM, is a crude oil free, multipurpose diesel fuel additive which increases mileage per gallon by as much as 15% for both on-road and off-road diesel engines. A quart of Monster DieselTM, when added to an 18-wheeler’s two tanks of regular diesel, creates what is essentially a premium grade fuel. Benefits of Monster DieselTM include:
* Instant impact – Turns black smoke to white
* Incredibly powerful – One quart has the energy of 25 gallons of diesel
* Less down time – Metal to metal wear reduced by almost 40%
* All year fuel – Subzero operation without plugging filters
* Price not dependent upon volatile crude – Made from U.S. sourced materials rather than crude oil
“We feel privileged to be affiliated with the Maryland Motor Truck Association,” said Mathew Zuckerman, Ph.D., CEO and President of Alkane. “The fact that last week President Barack Obama announced his intent to nominate MMTA President, Anne Ferro, to be the next Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administrator speaks to the quality of work she and the association do,” he continued. “We are pleased to be the Title Sponsor of the 2009 Maryland State Truck Driving Championships.”
