LORAIN, Ohio -- Turtle Plastics, a Lorain, Ohio based manufacturing leader of Environmental, Health and Safety products is thrilled to announce its sponsorship of Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship driver Timmy Pagliuso for this year's Mid-Ohio event being held July 26-28 in Lexington, Ohio. 

Liz Demetriou, company President states, "Timmy was a natural fit to help us endorse our products as he knows firsthand the importance of safely stabilizing equipment and workplace safety." 

Performance professionals require reliable tools on and the off the field. Whether it's being a race driver, rescue professional or tire change specialist. Turtle Plastics Dura Crib™ products made from recycled plastic are the superior alternative to the conventional use of wood during lifting, repair or stabilization operations.

A winning combination is what makes Timmy and Turtle Plastics get to first in the finish line… who says Turtles are slow?
