Patrick Sheltra & Friends To  Kick Up Their Heels In Indiantown Hoe-Down  

“ARCA Drivers Gabi DiCarlo &  Bryan Silas To Join Sheltra Saturday Night�??  

INDIANATOWN, Florida (November 1,  2007) - - ARCA  RE/MAX Series (ARS) driver 
Patrick Sheltra is dusting off the Stetson, breaking  out his boots and 
squeezing into his wranglers as he’ll take to the dance floor  in his hometown of 
Indiantown, Florida in Saturday night’s Hoe-Down at the  Indiantown 
International Airport. Sheltra however won’t be alone though as  fellow Floridian ARCA 
driver Bryan Silas and the only current full time female  ARCA competitor, Gabi 
DiCarlo will join Sheltra for the local  event. 
“I’m looking forward to Saturday  night,�?? said Sheltra. “This is a great 
family event which allows everyone to  come out to our local airport and have a 
great time. I’m excited to have Bryan  and Gabi coming out as well to meet and 
greet the folks of Indiantown. It’s a  going to be a yee-haw time!�?? 
In addition to a buffet style of  food and drinks, Sheltra and his gang will 
get down and do some dancing on  Saturday night including the famous Floridian 
square dance. While Sheltra, who  finished seventh in the 2007 ARCA RE/MAX 
Series Championship Standings isn’t  publicly known for his eclectic dancing 
moves, he isn’t afraid. “It’s always fun  to do something like this once in a 
while. It’s a great way for us to spend  Saturday night relaxing, laughing and 
enjoying ourselves,�?? said Sheltra.   
Before Sheltra, Silas and DiCarlo  hit the dance floor, the group will 
participate in an autograph session at the  Indiantown  International Airport from 
5:30pm to 6:30 pm local time.  “I’m looking forward to doing the  autograph 
session; it’s nice to keep the racing rhythm alive during the  off-season and I 
know a lot of the local people are looking forward to coming  out and meeting 
us,�?? stated the 21-year old rising star.  
Sheltra continued, “I personally  want to thank Bryan Silas and Gabi DiCarlo 
for taking time out of their busy  schedule to attend this event. It’s means a 
lot to me to know that just because  the season stops, they don’t quit giving 
back to the race  fans.�?? 
After attending the event on  Saturday night, Sheltra will unwind at home for 
three days before packing his  bags and heading to Texas for the first of 
several hunting trips  this season. Sheltra in fact, will be hunting in Texas and 
cut his trip short to attend the ARCA RE/MAX  Series Championship Banquet in 
Covington, Kentucky on December 8 where he and his mother  Grace Sheltra (car 
owner) will be honored for their seventh and ninth place  championship 
finishes this season.  
“I’m looking forward to doing some  hunting,�?? he added. “It’s a way of 
relaxation for me. I’ll be traveling  extensively back and forth between our 
hunting grounds in Texas and Alabama while also heading to the banquet and  the 
Daytona test in December. It’s going to be a busy two months, but I am  looking 
forward to it.�?? 
When asked how things are  progressing for the 2008 racing season, Sheltra 
responded, “Things are going  very smoothly. We are adding some new personnel, 
new equipment and some new  sponsors, so everything is coming together nicely. 
We are excited about next  year and we plan to announce our plans during the 
annual team press  conference(s) at the banquet next month.�??
