Sammy Stile of Laraway Motorsports visited victory lane for the fifth time this year at Dog Hollow Speedway in Northern Cambria, Pennsylvania.
Force Inc. Super Late Model Championship Challenge Series points leader Sammy Stile at Dog Hollow Speedway in Pennsylvania
Stile won the heat race in his Dirt Super Late Model 800 horsepower engine with K&N products. Stile started sixth in a field of 25 cars and took over the lead halfway through the race. He was never challenged.

His teammate, Dane Laraway was all set to win his sixth heat race until a driveshaft fell out of a competitor’s car and flattened the No. 1 Laraway Motorsports right rear tire. Laraway left the track and turned the lead over to the second place car.
“The incident positioned Dane to start at the back of the field on a dry slick track,” said Team Owner Brian Laraway. “My son managed to advance to seventh in the twenty lap feature. It was a very impressive run from the
back to seventh on a track with minimal passing.”
Brain Laraway was a competitor in the Dirt Super Late Model Series but gave up his seat to his son. “Dane showed an interest in driving since he was 15-years-old,” said Laraway. “He’s in the car now.”
Sammy Stile drives the No. 2 Laraway Motorsports vehicle. He had the most wins in the Dirt Late Model Series in the North East United States in 2004 and 2005. “Sammy called me one day and said I need a car to race,” said Laraway. “I gave him one to drive and he’s become part of the family.”
Stile continues to lead the Force Inc. Super Late Model Championship Challenge Points at Dog Hollow Speedway and Marion Center Speedway in Pennsylvania. Each track pays $3,000 to the point’s winner at the close of the season. Force Inc. will pay an additional $10,000 bonus if the same driver wins the points at both Dog Hollow Speedway and Marion Center Speedway.
“We’ve been using K&N for a few years now,” said Laraway. “We gained 11 horsepower on the dyno with K&N and know it’s a quality product. You can’t win races without quality parts and K&N is a quality product.”
The number 61 is a good number, just ask Sportsman racer Dan Fletcher. The Churchville, New York resident took home his 61st NHRA Wally during the Mopar Mile High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison, Colorado.

Fletcher defeated Doug Young in the Stock final round, by nailing the tree at the start. He had a 0.008 reaction-time compared to Young’s 0.080. The K&N sponsored racer was proud to put his K&N sponsored 1969 Chevrolet Camaro in the Winner’s Circle.
Thanks to K&N my cars outlast and outperform, said Dan Fletcher
Fletcher hopes to sweep the three race Western Swing again. Only seven other drivers have done this, including John Force, Greg Anderson, Cory McClenathan, Larry Dixon, Tony Schumacher and Joe Amato
“It’s about time I won in this car for K&N,” said Fletcher. “I’m certainly glad to reward K&N’s faith in me by knocking the door down with the K&N car. It’s an honor to have a company like K&N provide funding for me to race in this economic climate. I’m humbled by K&N’s support.”
Fletcher has won four 2009 NHRA National Events in Competition Eliminator. This was his first win in Stock. His matching 1969 Chevy Camaro’s made their debut at the NHRA
Winternationals in Pomona, California.
Fletcher hopes to sweep the three-race Western Swing again. Since the first Western Swing in 1969, only seven drivers, Joe Amato, John Force, Cory McClenathan, Larry Dixon, Greg Anderson, Tony Schumacher and Fletcher can put this accomplishment on their racing resumes.
The NHRA Western Swing is three mid-summer races that stretch from Denver, to Seattle, to Sonoma, California in three weeks. Teams travel more than two thousand miles during the 21 day racing marathon. Fletcher was on the road when K&N spoke with him by phone.
“I got the first leg of the journey done,” said Fletcher. “The first race is the hardest one. Denver is always tricky. The weather conditions change on a heartbeat. The wind will go from a head-wind to a tail-wind in a split second and it’s a difficult dial in. I hope to double up in Super Stock and Stock in Seattle, I don’t think that’s being too greedy.”
K&N's Ross Rettig explains how K&N tests air filters according to ISO 5011 test protocol.
The Los Angeles Chapter of the BMW Car Club of America visited K&N Engineering headquarters on Saturday July 11, 2009 to hold a club tour and tech session.
BMW Car Club of America members listen to K&N's Bert Heck explain the design process for K&N air intake systems.
K&N's Joel Valles speaks to BMW owners about how mass airflow sensors are tested.
Seventy club members from as far as 200 miles away visited K&N's Riverside, California facility, despite it being a hot July morning. K&N employees Rich Dwyer, Joel Valles, Steve Gibson, Renard Howard, Bert Heck, and Ross Rettig welcomed the BMW group as they arrived. "The variety of vehicles was astounding," said Gibson. "There were cars from as far back as an early '70's 2002, all the way up to a brand new 135i." Once the tech session was underway, club members had the opportunity to learn how K&N products are designed, tested, and manufactured. The group also toured K&N's race and fabrication shop, where several K&N vehicles were on display.
"All in all, we saw and learned far more than we expected" said Chapter Vice President Ed Lovelace. "We saw how K&N products are made and we also got to see how filtration systems are developed, trouble- shot and tested."
Paul Pencikowski, a retired avionics systems designer, attended the K&N tour as a guest of a friend. Pencikowski was very impressed with the testing and research that takes place every day at K&N. "I am an expert in experimental design, and K&N amazes me" Pencikowski said. "Their testing procedures are effective, efficient, and conclusive."
The tech session ended with lunch and a raffle for BMW Car Club merchandise, as well as two K&N gift certificates, inside K&N's Training Center. "All in all, this was one of the most active groups I'd ever worked with" said Gibson. "From car control clinics, to driving schools and car shows, the Los Angeles Chapter of the BMW Car Club of America has an event almost every weekend."
Chad Boat is a second generation racer. The genetics came through after he captured Sunday night’s third leg of the 22nd Annual USAC Indiana Sprint Week. Boat dominated the Kokomo Speedway, leading all 30 laps of the event.

The win was Boat’s third sprint car triumph at the oval track, and his fourth consecutive feature win. “We had a little trouble qualifying,” Boat said. “But, overall it turned out to be a great night. The win is just what we needed.”
Indiana Sprint Week will return to action in Terre Haute
Boat sprinted to an early lead over pole sitter Brad Sweet and built a comfortable advantage. He was rarely pressured by a revolving cast of second-place challengers including Sweet, Bryan Clauson, Hunter Schuerenberg, Josh Wise and Blake Fitzpatrick.
On lap 12, Boat had a scare. Wise mounted a low side charge on the leader, but his momentum was spoiled by a caution. When the race resumed, Boat moved to the low groove on both ends of the oval and checked his Billy Boat Performance Exhaust Impact Racing Maxim machine out for
a first place win.
Clauson took second, Jan Stanbrough was third and Sweet took fourth. Hud Cone rounded out fifth place. “I feel good about our Sprint
Week so far,” said Boat. “We ran third at Lawrenceburg, and fourth at Gas City. If we keep qualifying well and putting ourselves in a position to win, I think I have a good shot at the Sprint
Week Title.”
The first time Chad Boat went to a race track he was only two weeks old. His father Billy Boat raced cars at Indy. “I’ve used K&N Engineering Products for a long time,” said Billy Boat. “When Chad starting racing K&N made the air filters and oil filters we turned to. We are a racing family and we wouldn’t use any other filter.”
The win was Boat’s second career USAC sprint car victory. He is currently 15 points behind Clauson in the Sprint
Week standings. The nine day tour will resume at the Terre Haute Action Track, Boswell, Bloomington and Haubstadt.
The Honda Insight is a hybrid vehicle designed for consumers who may want to make an environmental statement. It seats five and is offered with a hybrid powertrain and front-wheel drive. Honda put an Eco Assist system on the Insight that helps drivers reach the best mileage by changing the background color of the speedometer from blue to green as efficiency increases. There is also a bar display that shows a thinner bar when fuel is being conserved.
Replacement air filter for 2009 to 2014 Honda Insight and 2011 to 2015 Honda Jazz
K&N has designed a washable and reusable lifetime air filter, part number 33-2433, for the 2009 to 2014 Honda Insight and 2011 to 2015 Honda Jazz with a 1.3 liter engine. It is made from cotton instead of paper and never needs to be replaced. K&N air filters provide less restriction than typical paper air filters which can increase the efficiency of the combustion process, creating more horsepower and torque.
The simple drop in design makes it an easy performance add-on for your 1.3 liter Honda Insight engine. The 33-2433 will require cleaning every 50,000 miles under normal highway driving conditions, and will continue to provide outstanding engine protection for the life of a vehicle. The filter is designed with a "grab tab" which makes it easier for you to lift the filter out of the airbox.
K&N is the leader and originator of the high flow performance cotton air filter and is always looking for new ways to provide excellent protection and maximum power for your vehicles.
K&N stock replacement 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.
