1993 Pontiac Trans Am Race Car for Daddy's Girl

Sometimes similarities are genetic, sometimes the similarity becomes familiarity. Tawny Strader grew up watching her father race, now she is the racer and he is her crew. The legacy that passed from father to daughter shines in a 16-year-old girl.

In her first year of racing, Tawny finished third in points overall in the High School Series at Edgewater. That win propelled the high-school junior from Brookville, Ohio to the O'Reilly Raceway Park Summit Finals.

"I had two good qualifying runs there, but on the first round I red-lighted," said Tawny. "I need to do better next time. There is always room for improvement as far as I'm concerned. I am determined to make it to the finals in 2008."

Tawny likes the competition and likes to work on her Pontiac. "It's important to know my car so I can race better," she said. "I have small hands and they can fit in tiny spaces under the engine. I also helped replace the radiator. My dad is teaching me about mechanics."

"We use K&N products (57-3010-1)," said Tawny's father Keith Strader. "K&N makes a big difference in performance and power on our Pontiac."

The season begins again for Tawny in April 2008. She plans to be back at Edgewater with her Pontiac equipped with K&N.

K&N Replacement Air Filter for Many 2005-2017 Renault Clio III Models Released

Air Filter for Renault Clio III Air Filter for Renault Clio III
K&N Engineering has designed a replacement air filter, 33-2927, for the Renault Clio III, a popular car in Europe. The simple drop-in design makes it easy to add performance. Simply remove the disposable air filter and replace it with the new K&N replacement Air Filter.

Unlike disposable filters, K&N Air Filters use a unique pleated design with oiled cotton fabric layers sandwiched between two layers of epoxy-coated aluminum wire screens. The filters capture airborne dirt particles while allowing virtually unrestricted air flow into the engine. These dirt particles cling to the outside of the filter and become part of the filtering media.

The washable, reusable, high flow flat panel filter is designed to increase horsepower and acceleration, while providing excellent filtration. The 33-2927 has a 1.125 inch height (29mm) with an outside length of 9.25 inches (235mm) and an outside width of 5.5 inches (140mm).

K&N’s stock replacement air filters for street vehicles are built to last for the life of your vehicle and are covered by our famous K&N Million-Mile Warranty. This will be the last air filter your Clio III will ever need.

Qualifying for the 200 lap 105.2 mile race begins October 20 at 11:10 a.m. EST.

“I’ve come close to winning at Martinsville a couple of times in the Truck Series,” said Kvapil. “I grew up short track racing on half-miles in late models. I always feel comfortable going to Martinsville, it’s a demanding race and it’s very hard on equipment, but I feel it’s a race we have a chance to win.”

The No.6 K&N Filters Team will be bringing chassis RK330-45 to Martinsville. This chassis last raced at Loudon, where Kvapil started third and finished 15th.

“Travis has always run well at Martinsville,” said crew chief Mike Beam. “We’ll head there looking to win this race. We had a strong truck in the spring, but we got caught behind when we decided to pit late in the race and the cautions kept coming. We know that our chances for the championship are basically gone, so we’ll look to win as many races as we can in the final five of the season.”

SPEED-TV will cover the race. Check your local guide for times.

K&N Filters No. 0 Sprint Car is Strong in World of Outlaws Series Race

California’s Tulare Thunderbowl Raceway is an extremely fast racetrack and on the night of the Dave Helm Memorial Jonathan Allard took a late race spin.

The Chico, California resident was able to charge forward to earn a 14th place finish in the Williams Motorsports K&N Filters No. 0. The night began with 42 competitors and Allard came out 22nd in the qualifying order. His lap of 14.143 put the K&N Filters machine only two one-thousandths of a second behind the 16th fastest car.

Jonathan Allard Jonathan Allard
This was good news for Allard because the World of Outlaws only takes the top 16 qualifying drivers for the heat race. The 2006 King of California was able to bring home third place and transfer to the feature.

The track was tough because of the rain and traffic in the back was thick. Allard picked his spots and was on the move early in the K&N Filters Williams Motorsports No. 0. He was able to close in for a top ten spot. As Allard battled with the Tony Stewart Motorsports machine, he spun to a stop in turn two on the 25th lap. Allard was pushed back to the rear for the final 10 lap shootout.

Allard took the high side and charged around several competitors over the last few laps to bring home a hard fought 14th place finish. “We had a great car and are happy to race neck and neck with this kind of competition,” said Allard. “I want to thank our sponsors like K&N for supporting us as we move on in the series.”

Allard is scheduled to run the K&N Filters No. 0 at Manzanita Speedway in Arizona on Friday and Perris Auto Speedway in California on Saturday.
