20 May 2008

The Chrysler 300C is an amazing full-size family sedan. This luxury sedan comes with a 5.7 liter Hemi V-8 engine, offering 340 horsepower. The 300C SRT-8 model comes with a 6.1 liter Hemi V8 engine delivering 425 horsepower.

This fuel efficient, full size luxury sedan has a lot of get-up-and-go. It’s no wonder that the Chrysler 300C and 300C SRT-8 are leaving the competition in the dust.

Del Worsham Holds on to NHRA POWERade Series Funny Car Position

15 May 2008

Del Worsham held on to his 10th place spot in the NHRA POWERade series after a second round finish at the O'Reilly NHRA Midwest Nationals in Madison, Illinois.

Del Worsham and the CSK impala funny car

Worsham came into the race in tenth place and quickly pushed his special-edition Checker, Schuck's, Kragen Impala Funny Car past rookie Bob Tasca in the first round. Worsham increased his series points total by having three drivers ahead of him in points either fail to qualify or lose their first round laps. It also added some breathing room for Worsham over Tasca who had entered the race trailing him by a single point in the series

Del Worsham uses K&N Filters

"I get up every morning and think about every qualifying run," Worsham said. "Between now and the Countdown, you can earn your spot or blow it on qualifying points."

Del Worsham and the CSK Team use K&N Engineering Oil Filters (HP-5001) every time they race. "The thick canister walls on the K&N Filters have extra strength and durability," said Team Worsham manager Bob Wilber. "It reduces the risk of damage from debris on the race track. We wouldn't dream of entering a race without K&N Filters."

Worsham's last win was in the special-edition K&N Filters/CSK Impala Funny Car at the 2008 O'Reilly NHRA Spring Nationals in Houston, Texas, defeating both John and Ashley Force.

Worsham and the CSK Team will look to increase their NHRA POWERade series points at the O'Reilly NHRA Thunder Valley Nationals May 16th through 18th in Bristol, Tennessee.

Angola Motor Speedway Opener Great Win for K&N Filters Rapid Racecar

13 May 2008

Racers heated up a cool night at the Angola Motor Speedway in Fremont, Indiana at the start of the 2008 track season. After a long winter, fans packed the stands ready to watch the Superior Auto Modifieds battle it out.

Brad Springer's No. 61 Rapid Racecar

Brad Springer finished 4th in the O'Reilly USA Modified Series in 2007 and has over 20 top five finishes

Brad Springer and the Springer Motorsports team qualified on the pole in their No. 61 K&N Filters Rapid Race car open wheel modified Todd Sherman chassis. Springer’s Chevy powered motor is built by Rapid City Racecars. Springer races three engines with K&N Engineering products. At the Superior Auto sanctioned event in Indiana he ran his 377cc engine.

Brad Springer prepares to shoot t-shirts into the Angola Speedway grandstands with a t-shirt launcher.

Brad Springer will contend for the USA Modified Championship

This event was not part of the USA Modified Series. The season opener was a track sanctioned event. “Angola is my home track,” said Springer. “This race was for bragging rights. I just like to race, I really don’t care if it’s for a series or not. I just want to have fun. I had fun when I shot t-shirts into the crowd on opening night.”

The racing got exciting after a few cautions. Darwin Wolfe started up front and looked as if he would go all the way. But Springer worked his way from deep in the field to get right behind Wolfe on lap 20. Springer passed him on lap 25 after a huge battle and pulled away for the win.

“This was my third win in a row at my home track,” said Springer. “I just wanted to keep my nose clean in this race. I won the season championship at Angola last year and started off this year just like I wanted to.”

Springer uses K&N air and oil filters. “I’ve used K&N air filters for years, but this is my first season with the K&N oil filters,” he said. Springer said he is a picky mechanic. “I work on cars and know what works and what does not,” he said. “Before I tried the K&N oil filter, I cut it open to look inside. I’m highly impressed. People want to give me products all the time because of my racing experience, but I will not use it unless it’s top notch. The K&N product line is impressive.”

Springer plans on contending for the USA Modified Championship. He will also compete in up to 15 Dirt Late Model shows in 2008. His next race is the “Night Before 500” at the O’Reilly Raceway Park at Indy.
