SuperRigs rolls into Joplin in June

Shell Rotella’s SuperRigs competition will celebrate its 34th year in Joplin, Missouri June 9-11 at the Joplin Convention and Trade Center.

The event is geared toward owner-operator participants, and no staging is required. Judging takes place continually throughout the event as trucks come and go. Participants receive a gift package valued at about $50, while supplies last.

Shell expects to team with Fastport, an agency that helps veterans find civilian jobs, to educate veteran attendees about the job opportunities that exist in trucking.
