Community Involvement Section:

The Amalie Scene

With over a hundred years of experience and history, Amalie recognizes the value in partnerships as an ongoing commitment to the community.

Today, Amalie honors that commitment.

• Since 2000, Amalie has been a proud sponsor of NHRA Top Fuel Driver Terry McMillen.

Terry McMillen is the team owner of Hoosier Thunder Motorsports, and has competed in a number of drag racing classes. Personally, he reset his personal best elapsed time and mile per hour records during the 2011 campaign.

Terry appreciates the value of working with Amalie, and knows that Amalie Oil Company’s commitment to his team, will ultimately help them grow. “I’ve never felt more energized than I do right now,” McMillen stated. “With the additional support from Amalie and our other marketing partners we’re going to have the opportunity to make some significant changes to our team. Changes that we think can make us a more competitive car week in and week out over the course of the NHRA Full Throttle schedule.”

• The Tampa Bay Storm is a 5-Time World Champion arena football team. Amalie Oil Company is a proud sponsor and partner of the team. Not only does the Amalie family cheer the team to victory, they also own the naming rights to the Storm field, the Amalie Motor Oil Field.

“We are pleased to welcome Amalie Motor Oil into the Tampa Bay Sports and Entertainment family,” said Chief Executive Officer Tod Leiweke. “As we transform the business and operations of both the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Tampa Bay Storm, we are encouraged to know that a company like Amalie recognizes value in partnering with the organization. We look forward to working with its management, helping to achieve new goals as we both look to extend our footprint in the Tampa Bay community.”

• Amalie welcomes visitors to the Tampa Bay area with five “Tampa-centric” signs at the Tampa International Airport. Amalie truly wants visitors to enjoy our hometown.

• Amalie has recently entered the Monster Truck arena. With a long list of podium appearances in Mud Racing, Razin Kane was a star in the mud, but the monster truck arena was his real calling. Since 2009, owner/driver J. R. McNeal has been thrilling fans in the monster truck arena. Amalie met and made an instant connection with J. R. and has signed on as one of his sponsors. Now, Razin Kane is out there showing off for his fans and helping prove that Amalie oils are just as tough as JR’s truck—is there a better way to prove durability than drag racing and monster truck charging, snorting and jamming?
