“We want to wrap up the series championship this weekend at the Target Center in Minneapolis,” said Bartz. “With the title won, Darcy can concentrate on riding to win at the U.S. Open of Arenacross and not have to worry about protecting a point lead.”

The U.S.Open carries a $100,000 purse with $50,000 going to the winner. Last weekend Lange increased his monumental points lead to 111 with 3 wins and one second place at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma.

Team Babbitt uses K&N Engineering products. “We get a one horsepower gain with our K&N Air Filters,” said Bartz. “That is a huge amount when it comes to arenacross racing.”

Just after mid-season Lange was so dominant in points, not much could jeopardize his lead. “It’s all about not making mistakes at this point,” said Lange. “That’s what we have to do and go from there.”

K&N Air Intake for 2007 to 2009 Toyota FJ Cruiser Adds 11.95 Horsepower

Rock crawling adventures in the 2007, 2008 and 2009 Toyota FJ Cruiser with its 4.0 liter V6 engine should be a breeze. Four-wheel-drive FJ Cruisers are solid off road, however, rear wheel drive is standard. The FJ's looks take a cue from the first generation Land Cruiser which include round headlights with a grille, an upright windshield and wraparound rear glass.

K&N Engineering, Inc. has made a 63 Series AirCharger Air Intake System, 63-9030 for the 2007 to 2009 Toyota FJ Cruiser with a 4.0 liter V6 engine. "The electronic components under the hood were repositioned along with the new design of the FJ," said K&N Performance Kit Manager Bert Heck. "K&N developed a new heat shield for this particular vehicle and designed the tube which allowed us to run the largest K&N Air Filter possible."

K&N tests have shown a horsepower gain of 11.95 @ 4785 RPM. K&N Engineers were able to get such good horsepower because the original factory airbox, hose, and original filter were not designed to maximize airflow like the K&N air intake, said Heck.

K&N's 63-9030 rotationally molded polyethylene Intake System uses a round tapered chrome top Air Filter RC-5046 that fits into the stock location. The heat shield isolates the filter element from the engine heat.

It takes less than an hour to install this air intake and the lifetime K&N Air Filter performs for up to 100,000 miles before service is required depending on driving conditions.

“I just returned from Australia,” he said. “I qualified the fastest out of 74 cars at Tyrepower Parramatta City Raceway for Outlaws Down Under. Despite a 12.396 quick time, things turned bad during the heat race. I was taken out by a competitor and my car had a lot of frame damage. The good news is I won the Piston Cup at Brisbane International Speedway.”

Allard uses K&N Engineering Oil Filters and K&N Carbon Fiber Air Box Air Filters. “K&N makes the best products, the oil and air filters are easy to use and maintain. We just wash, assemble and race. What’s interesting was the number of K&N Air Boxes I saw during the races in Australia. Most of the motor builders use them.”

Outlaws Down Under is in the record books but Allard said he will try for another Golden State Challenge title in 2007. The Chico, California resident and Williams Motorsports built three new cars for the new season. “We built them from the ground up,” said Allard. “K&N products are on all our vehicles.

”The World of Outlaws Series for Allard kicks off February 23 and 24 at Tulare Thunderbowl Raceway. The GSC Season starts on March 9 and 10 with the Mini Gold Cup at Chico’s Silver Dollar Speedway.
