The east coast and west coast teams meet in the middle to battle it out on man-made courses. On Saturday, Cody and Jim Waggoner crawled easily through the first course and set the mood for the rest of the day. “They were on fire and completed it with minimal errors,” said Lindsay Waggoner of Waggoner Racing. “Our engine ran perfect with K&N products for the entire day. At the end we were in third place despite all the heat and humidity.”

The Waggoner’s were only 14 points away from catching the first place leader. “We were ready for Sunday,” said Waggoner. “It was an exciting day for us. We were interviewed by Xtreme 4X4 for a television show. It was really different for our team to have the camera follow them all morning and at each course. The pressure was setting in.”

On Sunday the courses were set up so close that if you hit one you hit two. “In the end Sunday did not go as smooth as Saturday,” said Waggoner. “There was not one thing to blame, just an overall cluster of silly mistakes. Unfortunately the guys went from third to ninth place on the final day. The good news is it will be fun to be on really good reality TV in January 2008. It’s very exciting to have the coverage for our sponsors like K&N Filters.”

NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Race at Talladega Keeps K&N Filters Ford Third Overall

The Talladega Superspeedway at Alabama left its mark on Travis Kvapil and the K&N Team in Saturday’s NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race. Kvapil entered the race less than 200 points back from leader Mike Skinner in the No.6 K&N Filters Ford F-150.

Kvapil started fifth and was the one to beat until lap 73 of the 94-lap event. Kvapil was caught in the “big one” ending what he thought would be a serious gain on the point’s leader. Kvapil finished 26th and maintains third place overall, but he is now 234 points back from new point’s leader Ron Hornaday.

The No.6 K&N Filters Ford F-150 looked good during last Thursday’s first practice session. Unfortunately, during the happy hour session, Kvapil tangled with two other trucks causing damage to the entire left side. The K&N Filters team rolled out the back-up truck and Kvapil felt confident heading into qualifying and the race. In 52.986 seconds, Kvapil made his way around the 2.66-mile oval for the fifth starting position.

Kvapil went three wide on the outside jockeying for position in the first lap of the Saturday afternoon race. Only six laps into the race the first caution flew. The field went green on lap 12 and the caution flew again on lap 16.

K&N crew chief Mike Beam brought the No.6 K&N Filters truck down pit road for service. Kvapil received four tires, fuel and a track bar adjustment. He went back to the track in 20th for the re-start on lap 28. Kvapil worked his way back to the front and was in the top ten by lap 60.

The third caution of the day flew on lap 54 when the No. 27 ran the No. 50 Ford in to the wall bringing both trucks to a stop. Kvapil was in the top-five and radioed that the No. 6 K&N Ford was running a little hot. Beam brought Kvapil down pit road for the final time on lap 57 and returned him to the track in first for the re-start on lap 60.

Kvapil maintained a spot in the top 10 even though the field of trucks was shuffling like a deck of cards. Jack Sprague’s No. 60 truck had a right front tire going down. Sprague was on his way to pit road to fix the problem when the field stacked up behind him causing the “big one” and Kvapil could not get out of the way. When the smoke cleared Kvapil drove down the front stretch with the nose of the No.6 Ford crunched up.

NASCAR called for Kvapil to stop the truck because it was leaking fluids after the crunch and forced the No.6 to the infield care center. After repairs were made Kvapil was able to complete a few laps at the end but finished 26th as Todd Bodine went on to win.

“Our truck was pretty strong,” said Kvapil. “We had a great K&N Ford, but it was really hard to get track position. We got it at one point and I tried to go for the lead. It went crazy in the last two laps. I don’t know what happened, I saw them stopping in front of me and somebody came across tow trucks in front of me and we just wiped the front end off of it.”

The truck series takes the week off before heading to Martinsville in two weeks for the next Saturday afternoon race.

The K&N Filters Team will be bringing chassis RK412-52 to Talladega. This chassis last raced at Daytona in February, where Kvapil started fourth and finished third.

“I’m looking forward to Talladega,” said Kvapil. “This is going to be a great race for us. We had the dominant truck at Daytona in February and came up just shy of pulling off the win. I think we have the truck that can finish the job here this week. Handling is not as big an issue at Talladega as it is at Daytona. It’s much wider and forgiving at Talladega. Hopefully we’ll be able to run at the front and pull off the win in the K&N Ford F-150.”

“We had a great run earlier in the year at Daytona,” said K&N Filters Crew Chief Mike Beam. “We’ve been anxious to get to Talladega.”

The event will be televised on SPEED –TV on October 6. Check your local listings for time.
