No Bull: Patrick Sheltra Pinked Out For Rockingham

No  Bull: Patrick Sheltra Pinked Out For Rockingham  

“Mr.  Showtime To Sport Pink Uniform & Racecar For ARCA Season Finale�??  
ROCKINGHAM,  North Carolina (October 7, 2009) - - If you  see Patrick 
Sheltra or his No. 60 Buffalo Wings & Rings-Kimmie Cares Toyota  Camry in pink 
this weekend at Rockingham Speedway, you’re not dreaming. For the  ARCA RE/MAX 
Series season finale, Sheltra has decided to lay it all out and go  pink to 
show his support to his charity Kimmie Cares in recognition of Breast  
Cancer Awareness month. The Whitesville, Kentucky team will not carry just any  
pink – but pink camouflage as its official paint scheme for the 21st  race 
of the year.   
The  Sheltra Motorsports team is used to having one of the most colorful 
cars on the  track but this weekend serves a great purpose and the Indiantown, 
Florida native  isn’t afraid of being stereotyped.  
“Real  men wear pink,�?? joked Sheltra, whose Buffalo Wings & Rings uniform 
will also  carry a pink camouflage layout for Sunday’s ARCA RE/MAX American 
200 at  Rockingham Speedway. “We announced last week at Kansas Speedway that 
we were  partnering with Kimmie Cares to raise awareness for Breast Cancer 
and this is  probably one of the coolest way to do it. I’m actually really 
honored to have a  Pink car and uniform for Rockingham this weekend.�??  
The  Kimmie cares doll, book, from The Partners For A Cure Foundation 
address two  critical and often overlooked issues for women with cancer - helping 
moms  explain the effects of cancer to their small children, and helping 
both child  and adult share their fears and feelings so they can remain close 
during this  time of illness. 
While  many other organizations fund cancer research, donating money for 
equipment, new  medicines and scientists' salaries, the The Partners For A 
Cure  Foundation takes a somewhat different approach. Proceeds generated from 
the  sale of the Kimmie Cares doll as well as donations collected through 
other means  are distributed not to scientists, but to individuals with cancer. 
PFACF  helps patients who are struggling financially from the high costs of 
cancer  treatment and related cancer care expenses. 
The  loss of a loved one to Breast Cancer hits close to home especially 
within the  Sheltra Motorsports and Buffalo Wings & Rings tier as fellow team 
member and  Buffalo Wings & Rings franchisee owner Leonard Ranieri tragically 
lost his  wife, Eliza Ranieri last October to the disease. The team is 
racing in her honor  this weekend at Rockingham Speedway.  
The  team has revamped their team logo while Buffalo Wings & Rings has 
added the  traditional Breast Cancer ribbon around their logo for the month of 
October. The  Buffalo Wings & Rings signage on the racecars will also boast 
the same  layout.  
To  remember Eliza, the team has leaned on long-time Sheltra Motorsports 
supporter,  _totalracebabe.com_ (http://www.totaracebabe.com/)  who has 
created special “Together We  Can Make A Difference�?? bracelets which are 
available to friends, family and  associates who want to show their support of 
Breast Cancer. The bracelets are  available now through Sunday, November 15th 
through the team’s  website at _PatrickSheltra.com_ 
(http://www.patricksheltra.com/)  or _BuffaloWingsandRings.com_ (http://www.buffalowingsandrings.com/)  
and _KimmieCares.com_ (http://www.kimmiecares.com/) . A large percentage of 
each bracelet  will be donated to Kimmie Cares through the Eliza Ranieri 
Foundation. Race fans  will also have the opportunity to purchase the 
bracelets this weekend at  Rockingham Speedway.  
“This  is a special weekend for Leonard,�?? added Sheltra, who finished 
second at  Rockingham Speedway in April. “We’ve been working on this project 
since July and  I think we’ve put together something that we’re all proud of 
all the way around.  I’m racing for many reasons this weekend but I’m 
hoping that we can pull off a  win for Leonard and Eliza on Sunday.�??  
Following  Sunday’s season finale, Sheltra will auction off the uniform 
donated by Awesome  Racewear with the proceeds going to Kimmie Cares in Eliza 
Ranieri’s honor.   
In his  final NASCAR Nationwide Series race of the year at Homestead-Miami 
Speedway next  month, Sheltra is gunning to donate $25,000 dollars to Kimmie 
Cares between the  “Together We Can Make A Difference�?? bracelets and the 
uniform auction.
