When the complete points earned are calculated, Dempsey now leads Joel Miller by five points, 354 to 349. The best 11 of each driver’s 12 races count for the championship, however. With the one drop Dempsey is again on top, leading John Edwards by three points, 337 to 334. The championship will come down to the last race, as unofficially the current top seven still have a shot. That includes two other Andersen Racing drivers: Charles Hall and Tom Gladdis. m-o-r-e Andersen Racing’s Dempsey Wins Sunday/Page 2 of 6 To date Dempsey has won more races than any other driver in the series, as he’s been triumphant four times. Edwards has three victories. Andersen Racing’s Hall and Gladdis have one victory each, as does Miller. Andersen Racing, which was won six of the 10 races run so far this year, leads the team point standings by 77 points over JDC Motorsports, 318 to 241.

    This year will mark the Firestone brand’s 67th Indy 500 victory. Firestone has more Indy 500 wins than all other tire manufacturers combined. CAN HINCH GO FROM THE POLE TO VICTORY LANE: James Hinchcliffe wrote the latest chapter of his comeback story when he scored the pole for the 100th Indianapolis 500 last weekend. History will be on his side this weekend as the Indy 500 pole has gone on to win the race 20 times. Forty-three times, the winner has come from the front row, the last time in 2010 with Dario Franchitti. Will Hinch covert his Verizon P1 Award into the Borg-Warner Trophy? Chris Jones/IMS Photo WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS MONTH: IT’S NOT WHERE YOU START…: The last four Indianapolis 500 winners have started outside the top 10, including Juan Pablo Montoya, who came from 15th to win in 2015. With depth throughout the 33-car field for the Indy 500, including former winners Montoya, Scott Dixon and Tony Kanaan starting from the fifth row or further back, can another star drive through the field to win the race? SECOND-GENERATION STARS HOPE TO ADD TO FAMILY LEGACY: The latest generation from two of open-wheel racing’s most familiar families comes to Indianapolis in hopes of adding to the family legacy. Marco Andretti—the grandson of 1969 winner Mario Andretti and son of Michael Andretti—has finished in the top three at Indy three times in his nine previous starts. He hopes to give his father’s team its fourth Indianapolis 500 win.

  • Customers, Segmentation,And Targetmarketing
    Customers, CHAPTER Segmentation,and TargetMarketing 5 H I INTRODUCTION G G In this chapter, we begin our discussion of marketing strategy by examining custo- mers, segments, and target markets. In Chapter 1, weS referred to a market as a col- lection of buyers and sellers. Now, we focus our, attention on the buyers who collectively make up the major portion of most markets. From this perspective, we concern ourselves with markets as individuals, institutions, or groups of individuals or institutions that have similar needs that can be metS by a particular product offer- ing. As we shall see, firms can attempt to reach all buyers in a market, smaller groups or segments of the market, or even specific buyers onH an individual level. Whether the firm aims for the entire market or smaller marketA segments, the goal of market- ing strategy is to identify specific customer needs, then design a marketing program that can satisfy those needs. To do this effectively, theN firm must have a comprehen- sive understanding of its current and potential customers,I including their motiva- tions, behaviors, needs, and wants. The ability to determine in-depth information aboutC customers is a fairly recent phenomenon in marketing. Fifty years ago, for example,Q technology and marketing know-how were less sophisticated. Marketers of the dayU were unable to fully under- stand customers’ needs and wants, much less make fine distinctions among smaller segments of the total market. Marketers tended to offerA products that came in only one variety, flavor, or style. Today, market segmentation is critical to the success of most firms.

  • Trois Rivières, Quebec
    SHAKE-UP IN THE STREETS – TEXAN RUSTY MITCHELL TAKES THE POLE FOR THE START OF TOMORROW'S ROUND 10 OF THE 2009 STAR MAZDA CHAMPIONSHIP AT THE 40TH RUNNING OF THE GP3R Trois Rivières, Quebec (August 15, 2009) – With the smart money betting that the pole would go to Irishman Peter Dempsey – who, after all, has won four races this year, the last three in a row… and won this event last year – it was instead Rusty Mitchell, of Midland, Texas, who stepped up, turned in his best qualifying effort ever and put the #66 Mitchell Motorsports / Motorola Mazda on the inside of the front row with a lap of 1.01.341. The time, a new lap record for the Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear at this legendary 1.52-mile temporary road circuit at this track, eclipses the old mark of 1:01.978 set last year by… Peter Dempsey. Dempsey, running the Juncos Racing spare car -- now that Walt Bowlin, owner of the car in which Dempsey has scored his remarkable string of three straight victories, has returned to competition – had his session cut short by contact with the wall, but still managed a 1:01.489 on lap 8 to claim the outside of the front row. "Pretty much everything went right for me and I have to thank the Mitchell Motorsports team for that," said Mitchell, the second-year driver who put in strong drives on the two ovals earlier in the season, finishing 6th at the Milwaukee Mile and 4th at the Iowa Speedway.
