| Sheltra Motorsports Announces Partnership With
CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil For 2010
ORLANDO, Florida (December 11, 2009) - - Officials from
Sheltra Motorsports, LLC and CAM2 International, LLC announced
today at the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) trade show
in Orlando, Florida that the two organizations will pair
up for the 2010 racing season which will consist of the
ARCA Racing Series presented by RE/MAX and Menards and the
NASCAR Nationwide Series with driver Patrick Sheltra at
the controls.
It will be the first unification between the two entities
next year but CAM2 will drive its focus on re-entering the
Motorsports arena with the strength and support of the veteran
Sheltra Motorsports team.
CAM2 motor oil was introduced in 1975 by the Sun Refining
and Marketing Co. as a "do-it-yourself" motor
oil. The CAM2 brand was eventually purchased by a group
of motor oil distributors and became the CAM2 Oil Products
Co., with headquarters in Denver, and marketing offices
in Philadelphia. In 2007, CAM2 Oil Products Co. merged with
International Petroleum of Hammond, IN forming CAM2 International,
LLC.
CAM2 was the first multi-viscosity motor oil to be sanctioned
by the United States Auto Club (USAC) for championship racing
and the first to win the Indianapolis 500. Products include
power steering fluid, greases, heavy duty diesel engine
oils, industrial lubricants and gear oils.
In addition to the partnership with Sheltra Motorsports,
CAM2 will also align its bulk oil division and join forces
with one of the team’s marketing partners, Sheltra
& Son Construction, Inc. headquartered in Indiantown,
Florida.
“We are very excited about this partnership with
CAM2 next year,” said driver Patrick Sheltra who is
gunning for the ARCA championship crown in 2010. We’ve
done our homework together and we feel that this partnership
is the start of something that will last for many years
to come. We are driven to making CAM2 a winning name not
only with our team but also in stock-car racing. Additionally,
we are very pleased that CAM2 will be working with Sheltra
& Son Construction, Inc. and we expect magnificent results
from that partnership as well.”
Bill Strock, Director of Motorsports at CAM2 said, “We
are very proud to have this affiliation with Patrick Sheltra
and Sheltra Motorsports. We’ve spoken to the team
in great lengths before we decided to bring our two organizations
together. With their success on the track and their devotion
to their marketing partners away from the track –
we feel that this is a win-win situation. We’re looking
forward to going to victory lane with Patrick (Sheltra)
in 2010.”
