2005 Hyundai Grandeur Owners Benefit from K&N Lifetime Replacement Air Filter

K&N Engineering's lifetime replacement air filter, 33-2933 is designed to fit in the factory airbox of the 2005 Hyundai Grandeur 2.7 liter V6 engine. Adding performance is easy with the drop-in design, simply remove the disposable air filter and replace it with K&N's air filter. Each filter is custom designed to fit in the factory air box and requires no modifications.

Unlike disposable filters, K&N Air Filters use a unique pleated design consisting of an oiled cotton fabric between two layers of epoxy-coated aluminum screen. The filters capture airborne dirt particles and allow high volume air flow. These particles then cling to the outside of the filter and become part of the filtering media.

K&N Engineering is the inventor and world leader of the high-flow cotton air filter. If every vehicle used washable and reusable K&N air filters, there would be far less debris in landfills. The Environmental Protection Agency recommends the use of disposable air filters.

K&N's stock air filters for street vehicles are covered by our famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty and will be the last air filter your vehicle will ever need.

At lap 10 there was a three-way battle for the win between Caddell, Jason Saini and Ara Malkhassian. The three racers went back and forth a few times, and no one seemed to have a distinct advantage around the track.

Caddell was passed and began to fall back, but returned to the fight as the battle between Saini and Malkhassian heated up. Caddell did his best, but crossed the finish line in third place.

Caddell has been racing for ten years. He started with karts and has always used K&N Engineering products. “I don’t remember racing without K&N,” said Caddell. “K&N Air and Oil Filters give me a competitive edge.”

The next event is in Canada on August 18 at Trois-Rivieres, Quebec.

Two K&N World of Outlaw Racers Battle at Dodge City Raceway Park

Jason Meyers continues to add victories to his resume in the World of Outlaws 2007 Season. In May, Meyers and the Elite Racing team visited victory lane at U.S. 36 Raceway in Osborn. Missouri. Meyers recently netted another Outlaw win at Dodge City Raceway Park in Dodge City, Kansas.

In the Boot Hill Showdown at Dodge City, Meyers qualified ninth during the time trial event. He crossed the finish line first in this heat and ran second to the Crane Cams Dash. He lined up on the outside of the first row for the A-Main, next to the 2006 Champion and current point leader, Donny Schatz.

Both racers are sponsored by K&N Engineering, and both use K&N products on their sprint cars. “K&N protects engines and keeps the dirt out,” said Marie Osborn for Elite Racing. “K&N also gives us more power and that gives us a winning edge.”

Meyers was able to hold on to the lead until the thirteenth circuit, when Schatz motored around him. Not losing ground to Schatz, Meyers held on. Schatz bobbled on the high side of the track on lap sixteen and Meyers used the slower traffic to pass Schatz. Meyers held on for the close victory.

“The race was tough,” said Meyers. “We battled Donny all night long. I always love coming to Dodge City, and it’s great to have good news.”

Next up for Meyers and the Elite Racing Team will be The Duel of the Dakotas on Friday, June 29 at Red River Valley Speedway in West Fargo, North Dakota.

The victory was his eighth “A” Feature win of the 2007 season and second consecutive at Black Hills. “Winning races is the key to having a successful season, but putting on a good show is what keeps fans coming back,” said Schatz. “The track crew did an excellent job of getting the track into racing condition after some unfortunate accidents early in the night. They never gave up nor did the fans. It was a long night, but hopefully we gave them something to remember and we’ll see them again next year.”

At the start of the evening, cars hit the 3/8-mile dirt oval to qualify under sunny conditions. During the first two heats numerous rocks on the track were cutting tires and doing damage to the race cars. The track surface was reworked.

Donny Schatz Motorsports has a winning combination of parts and components. The team uses K&N Engineering Products. “With the K&N Sprint Car Airbox we’re confident we’re getting maximum airflow to produce the highest performance,” said Schatz. “The debris stays out of our motor with K&N.”

Schatz started the evening by qualifying ninth in a field of 36 cars. The Fargo, North Dakota racer made a strong move at the start jumping from fourth into second and spent lap after lap following Madsen.

“I had to conserve my right rear tire,” said Schatz. “We got to traffic and I was hoping Kerry would make a mistake, but he didn’t. Then I saw the white flag and figured it was now or never and we made it work.”

Schatz returns to action on Friday night when the World of Outlaws makes its first appearance at River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, North Dakota.
