USA BASSIN the fastest growing bass fishing tournament trail in the nation has added Lucas Oil to its growing list of sponsors. Lucas Oil is a world leader of automotive oils, marine oils, additives, and lubricants. CEO of Lucas Oil Products, Forrest Lucas and Executive vice-president and wife, Charlotte started Lucas Oil from the ground up with very little of their own money. The totally debt free company now reaches annual revenues of over $150 million. Forrest and his wife started the business in southern Indiana’s Jackson County in 1989. The Lucas’s now have manufacturing plants in Corydon Indiana, and California. However, the Lucas family has never lost sight of the community and the people that have allowed them success. In a recent article from WTHR about the couple Forrest was quoted saying. "We've been so blessed over the years and we know there are times when other people aren't so lucky, so Charlotte and I have always made it a priority to give a hand whenever we can. It's the right thing to do and we enjoy being able to help people”. USA BASSIN is proud to have Lucas Oil onboard as a National Sponsor. Forrest and Charlotte are also sponsors of many sporting events and the couples name is on the famous Lucas Oil Stadium home of the Indianapolis Colts. The name of the famous couple also appears on racing logos such as NHRA, modified, sprint, late model, and off road racing car series. Lucas has also been a long time sponsor of drag boat racing. The involvement with drag boat racing has helped bring about the Marine Products division of Lucas oil. Lubricants of all types can be found on proven race winners that have been implicated into what is now the Lucas Oil line of marine products. Professional angler Bill McDonald a Lucas Oil sponsored bass fisherman from Greenwood Indiana can be seen on Wired2Fish.com demonstrating Lucas Marine Products. Bill has a long string of success tournament bass fishing. Bill’s boat utilizes all Lucas oil marine products. The 2-cycle oil used by McDonald “Land and Sea high performance semi-synthetic TC-W3” has been tested to be the best in all types of 2-cycle outboard motors. You can follow Bill and his success with Lucas Oil at www.billmcdonaldfishing.com. Lucas Oil Company has recently developed a new fuel additive to combat ethanol in gasoline called Safeguard. Safeguard is an ethanol fuel conditioner with stabilizers. Ethanol in gasoline destroys components of outboard motors leading to costly repairs. Safeguard reduces Ethanol and stabilizes gasoline for better performance. USA BASSIN would like to encourage all members to use Lucas Oil Marine Products.
