FIVE INDIANA BUFFALO WINGS & RINGS LOCATIONS GIVE AWAY TICKETS TO SALEM SPEEDWAY TO MEET PATRICK SHELTRA APRIL 11TH
BWR / Sheltra Duo Reunites In Time For Anniversary Win At Historic Salem Speedway

Cincinnati (April 1, 2010) - - In celebration of the renewed partnership with Sheltra Motorsports, all five Indiana Buffalo Wings & Rings are giving away two tickets to the Sunday, April 11th Salem (Ind.) Speedway ARCA event, featuring BWR-sponsored driver Patrick Sheltra.

Officials from Buffalo Wings & Rings and Sheltra Motorsports jointly announced on March 22, 2010 that the Cincinnati, Ohio corporation will return as a marketing partner for four upcoming ARCA Racing Series (ARS) presented by RE/MAX and Menards events, beginning with the next ARCA event at Salem Speedway April 11th.

The reunion takes shape perfectly as driver Patrick Sheltra, the 23-year old ARCA pro returns to the half-mile bullring next month as the defending champion of the Kentuckiana Ford Dealers 200. Buffalo Wings & Rings debuted as a marketing partner with Sheltra Motorsports last April at Salem and watched Sheltra soar to his first career victory just two months after recovering from a near-career ending incident in the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway.

“We are happy to make this announcement with Sheltra Motorsports and Patrick,” commented Charlie Francus, Marketing Manager for Buffalo Wings & Rings. “The team exceeds in the core values we expect in a partnership. Our customers have become huge supporters of Patrick (Sheltra) and the ARCA Racing Series and we look forward to continuing to build on that relationship in 2010.”
