Tommy Bryant and Jason Johnson battle it out at Lake Ozark Speedway in Eldon, Missouri
The Lucas Oil ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series presented by K&N Filters consists of 33 nights of racing action at 17 different tracks throughout the United States. The country’s top Sprint Car
drivers battle it out for their share of a $250,000 purse.
Johnson, of Eunice, Louisiana started from the pole position, but only led the final six circuits for the $6,000 score. ASCS Gulf South contender Tommy Bryant was ahead of the pack for 27 laps until Johnson passed him in the 53 car field.
“Tommy made me work for that win,” said Johnson. “I got by him a time or two and then he came right back after me. That was tough.” Johnson uses K&N air and oil filters on his Lanny Row’s Wesmar-powered The Shop Motorsports No. 41 Eagle.
As the laps clicked off, Johnson’s challenges were more intense. Bryant matched Johnson step by step until Johnson made a power move off turn two in the 30th round. The leaders also had to contend with Shane Stewart who turned the race into a three car duel.
Johnson had Stewart on his tail for the final four-lap dash to the checkered flag. Johnson won the race and Stewart took second.
Johnson’s next race will be July 3-4 at Riverside Speedway in West Memphis, Arkansas.

To say the 25th annual K&N Horsepower Challenge worked out for Jeg Coughlin Jr. would be an understatement. He beat the best drivers in Pro Stock and collected the $50,000 top prize, a trophy and a ring. In the final, he bested longtime rival Greg Anderson. Coughlin reacted first in the Jegs.com Chevy, .020 to .062, but the race was over when Anderson let the clutch go on his Summit Pontiac and shook the tires early.
In the K&N Horsepower Challenge, the top eight Pro Stock drivers who accumulated the most points while qualifying during the 23 race NHRA series faced off at the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series in Norwalk, Ohio.
At the start of the event, Greg Anderson led the pack with points, Mike Edwards was second, followed by Allen Johnson, Jason Line, Kurt Johnson, Jeg Coughlin, Warren Johnson and Ron Krisher.
“In the K&N Horsepower Challenge, every round is like racing in the final,” said Coughlin. “The fans at the Summit Racing Equipment Motorsports Park were rewarded with outstanding competition.”
Coughlin went up against defending champion Allen Johnson in the first round, then Mike Edwards in the second round and then Anderson in the final. “We got the breaks when we needed them,” said Coughlin. “We fishtailed down the track in the second round and I can’t believe we were able to hold on. It was a combination of running good and getting the breaks when we needed them.”
“This was my third win in the K&N Horsepower Challenge,” said Coughlin, who claimed the Horsepower Challenge trophy in 1999 and 2000. “I’m currently leading in the Full Throttle standing and entering the final phase of my regular season.”
Anderson earned $10,000 for his runner-up finish. Edwards and Line earned $3,000 each for making the semifinals and first round finishers Allen Johnson, Kurt Johnson, Warren Johnson and Ron Krisher received $2,500 each.
“I wish I could have earned the $50,000 pot of gold,” said Anderson. “But I’m happy with the $10,000. I love that race. Thanks to K&N, the company put up some big money and it means a lot.”
The Pro Stock class is about the delivery of air flow. K&N is in a class of its own when it comes to hood scoops. “K&N has worked hard to create new technology for the NHRA Pro Stock category,” said K&N Vice President of Research and Development Steve Williams. “We have a K&N Pro Stock Intake System available for the world’s fastest hot rods and we put up the money at the K&N Horsepower Challenge.”
“We transitioned to the K&N Pro Stock Intake System in April of this year,” said Coughlin. “Since then we’ve been in 8 NHRA final rounds and I’ve won six of them. We’ve seen a direct relationship between the K&N Pro Stock Intake System and increased power.”

At first glance calling the 2007 Mini Cooper "All New" may seem like a ruse. Upon closer inspection the surprisingly significant changes make themselves better known. While European pedestrian impact standards dictated minor changes to exterior dimensions, the biggest surprise comes from under the hood. A lot of investment was made into new engines for the Mini Cooper. An all-new turbocharged 1.6-liter engine powers the Cooper S. The new turbocharged engine offers a nice bump in both horsepower and torque over the previous generation Cooper S. Nevertheless, K&N engineers took one look at the car and decided that more could be done.

That's exactly what K&N did with Performance Air Intake System 69-2004TTK. Great consideration was put into the design of part number 69-2004TTK. Exclusive features include a stepped intake tube to eliminate the need for special adapters while improving air delivery. The location of the step was carefully tuned to provide greater increases in power. Additionally, a special angled silicone adapter was created to maintain the factory location of the stock crankcase vent hose. 69-2004TTK incorporates a highly unique heat shield that bolts to the bottom half of the factory air box. This retains the original cold air induction keeping inlet air temperature within factory specifications. The result of this hard work and dedication is an extra 11 horsepower at the wheels for the 2007, 2008, 2009 to 2010 Mini Cooper S.
K&N's Research and Development Department tested a 2008 Mini Cooper S 1.6L I4 on our in-house dynamometer. Results showed an astonishing peak horsepower gain of 11.1 horsepower @ 4700 RPM! 69-2004TTK provides increased performance and an attractive black powder coated aluminum intake tube.
K&N cold air intakes are designed to dramatically reduce intake restriction as they smooth and straighten airflow. This allows your engine to pull in air with ease compared to the OEM air filter assembly. More air means more power and torque when you need it. With a K&N Performance Air Intake System, consumers can count on extra horsepower whether daring the morning commute, or weaving along a winding country road.
This air intake system uses a conical shaped high-flow air filter (RU-4960) and powder coated aluminum heat shield in place of the vehicle's stock air box. The result is an air filter that captures harmful particles, flows more air, and increases service life. This K&N air filter performs for up to 100,000 miles before service is required depending on driving conditions. Improving the air path between the filter and the engine is the powder coated aluminum intake tube. Our powder coated aluminum intake tubes offer power and a stylish appearance. The 69-2004TTKair intake takes about 90 minutes or less to install, using stock mounting points. It requires no cutting or drilling and it is covered by K&N's Million Mile Limited Warranty™.
For increased protection and style, K&N offers a Drycharger® filter wrap that can be used in conjunction with part number 69-2004TTK. Drychargers® are made from a durable polyester material containing uniform micron openings which will stop small dirt particles and repel water; yet add little restriction to the airflow of your filter. Available in a variety of colors, K&N Drychargers® can be color coordinated with your car's finish.

A quick glance at the beautiful Kathryne Minter and it would be hard to tell that she is a talented and competitive driver of the 2009 ASCS Lucas Oil Sprint Car Series. This 18-year-old racer's weapon of choice is the # 13 Maxim chassis powered by WESMAR Racing Engines, which is equipped at all times with a K&N Sprint Car Style Air Box.
Kathryne's next race is the ASCS National Tour race at Riverside International Speedway in West Memphis, Arkansas
"I definitely notice that by combining K&N filters with Purple Oil, I see a difference in the longevity of my motor," says Kathryne. "I don't have to worry if I'm gonna be able to make it through the next race. I may not have the biggest motor, but because it's so much cleaner and healthier, it runs a lot better than some of my competitors' motors who are not using K&N filters."
Kathryne Minter is a driver of the 2009 ASCS Lucas Oil Sprint Car Series
Kathryne's racing career may have begun only four years ago, but the 2006 graduate of the Lyn St. James Driver Development Program has won more than 60 feature races. In 2007 Kathryne finished 8th in points for the ASCS Gulf South Region, and also received 'Rookie of the Year' honors.
During the 2008 season, she ran the ASCoT National Series Tour and finished 11th in points. Kathryne was awarded with perfect attendance and also accepted the 'Young Lion Award' for being the youngest driver to complete the tour.
When on the track, Kathryne doesn't think twice about being a female racer in a male-dominated sport. "We are all the same when you get on the race track," she says. "I'm just another car, another number."
However, there is no question that Kathryne gets a lot of attention off-track. "I try to set a good example at all times and maintain a good attitude, especially because I have a lot of younger fans," she says. "I am very lucky to have fans that support me no matter how I finish."
This dedicated racer recently graduated high school, which was not an easy task considering her busy schedule. Kathryne studied an intense curriculum by taking classes online, all so she could attend every race on the national tour. Once a ballerina and soccer player, Kathryne gave up both activities to devote all her time to racing. "Racing had everything I was looking for; the physical aspect, the adrenaline rush, the competition - I didn't want to do anything else!"
Next up on the schedule for Kathryne Minter Racing, the team heads to the ASCS National Tour race at Riverside International Speedway in West Memphis, Arkansas.
