Tony Stewart Collects Third Victory in Daytona Make It SPORTS MARKETING NEWS, PRODUCTS AND EVENTS FROM LINCOLN ELECTRIC AUGUST 2012 TONY STEWART COLLECTS THIRD VICTORY IN DAYTONA By: stewarthaasracing.com Tony Stewart, driver of the No. 14 Mobil 1/Office Depot Chevrolet, led the Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) contingent at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway by winning the Coke Zero 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race. It was Stewart’s 47th career Sprint Cup win, his third this season, and his fourth win and 13th top-10 in 28 career Sprint Cup starts at Daytona. With the victory, Stewart, who led twice for 22 laps, moved into 14th on the all-time NASCAR Sprint Cup win list. He previously was tied with NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee Buck Baker. The win was Stewart’s 18th all-time at Daytona, which includes non-points Sprint Cup events, NASCAR Nationwide Series events and IROC races. The victory places Stewart second on the track’s all-time win list, 16 behind the legendary Dale Earnhardt (34). All four of Stewart’s points-paying Sprint Cup wins have come in the Coke Zero 400 (2005, 2006, 2009 and 2012). This was the 17th point-paying Sprint Cup win for SHR since its inception in 2009 and its fourth this season. Stewart scored SHR’s first victory of 2012 on March 11 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and its second victory March 25 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif. Ryan Newman grabbed the organization’s third win April 1 at Martinsville (Va.) Speedway.

Hunter-Reay, in the No. 28 Team DHL/Sun Drop Citrus Soda car, inherited the lead on Lap 57 when JR Hildebrand pitted and upped his margin over Tony Kanaan from .6040 of a second to 4.0794 seconds in the matter of five laps on the 1.75-mile, 11-turn course. Charlie Kimball replaced Kanaan as the protagonist on Lap 72, but the challenger didn't matter. Hunter-Reay pulled away by 7.6 seconds with 10 laps left and -- staying ahead of restart pileups in Turns 1 and 3 with three laps left -- went on to his third consecutive victory.

The trip allowed our new employees the opportunity to understand how we generate sales through both customer activation and branding. Mike Lewis, Vice President of Schumacher Racing spoke to the group. Mike stressed how important it us to have quality welds in these machines that accelerate to over 300 m.p.h. Lincoln Electric plays a key role in providing not only quality equipment and consumables to build the cars, but the training to allow their fabricators to use proper welding techniques and procedures. Jack Beckman, funny car driver, spoke about his career in drag racing and the hard work and determination that it takes to be successful in any career.

PAGE 2 AUGUST 2012 TEAM AEROSHELL VISITS LINCOLN HEADQUARTERS Aeroshell Aerobatic Pilots, Steve Gustafson, Mark Henley, Gene McNeely and Bryan Regan stopped by Lincoln Electric’s world headquarters on June 19th and 20th. While in town, they brushed up on their TIG welding skills, shot a feature video and then did a flyover of Lincoln’s two million square foot campus in Cleveland, Ohio. Lincoln Electric has been a proud partner of the Aeroshell team for more than 10 years. They rely on our equipment to maintain their 1930s AT-6 Texans. Originally designed as a basic trainer for the United States Army Air Corps, the Texan was the primary training platform for all US airmen in World War II. See their full event schedule here: http://www.naat.net/Newsite2012/Schedule/Schedule.html NASCAR TECHNICAL INSTITUTE CELEBRATES TEN-YEAR ANNIVERSARY One decade ago this month, NASCAR Technical Institute – a branch of Universal Technical Institute – became the first exclusive educational partner of the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing Inc. (NASCAR). The 146,000-square-foot training facility located in Mooresville, N.C. opened in July 2002 as the first technical school of its kind to combine automotive training and a NASCAR-approved technologies curriculum into one program. Today, NASCAR Tech is celebrating ten years of operation and has helped change the vernacular from auto mechanic to automotive technician. With state-of-the-industry classrooms designed to effectively train students for the workforce, NASCAR Tech has become the leader for automotive technical education, graduating thousands in its ten-year existence. Lincoln Electric has been the exclusive provider of welding equipment and consumables from the start. Partnering with NTI has been a win-win situation for both companies where teaching thousands of students proper techniques on quality welders benefits all those involved in the industry.

  • Environmental Impact of the Grand Prix on Baltimore City
    Computers and Mathematics in Automation and Materials Science Environmental Impact of the Grand Prix on Baltimore City RONNIE BROWN1, ABDUL KHAN2, SAMUEL MBUGUA3 , ASIA MASON3, JAMES HUNTER1, GBEKELOLUWA OGUNTIMEIN1*. 1Department of Civil Engineering, 2Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, 3Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Clarence M. Mitchell Jr. School of Engineering, Morgan State University 1700 East Cold Spring Lane, Baltimore, MD, 21251 UNITED STATES of AMERICA [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected],[email protected]* Abstract The Grand Prix of Baltimore significantly impacts the natural and built environment of the city. Over the past 4 years, there has been intense debate in Baltimore, and beyond, about the city hosting an annual leg of the Izod sponsored Indy grand prix series. Cases have been made for this event to become an annual fixture in the city‟s sports calendar, mainly citing the economic merits such an event would attract. The city has also documented environmental benefits from the 3 day event in the city, including improved air quality as indicated by the air quality index figures. On the other hand, environmentalists have made their case for the negative impacts the event would generate, such as the cumulative increase of greenhouse gas emissions in an already polluted metropolitan atmosphere. This study is an effort to centralize all the environmental data from the event and show that there is an improvement in the air quality as a result of the event.. Keywords: Air Quality Index, Environmental Pollution, Grand Prix of Baltimore, Green House Gas effect, Tons of Carbon dioxide equivalent.
