Oil For 2010
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) tradeshow 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.�??
