"This place is fast, wide open, and tight, you go out there and have to be willing to lay it out for the entire race," says Meyers
Jason Meyers and his Elite Racing Team took on Kasey's King of Bulls Gap, at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, Tennessee, and drove away with the crown. That makes Meyers the only driver to have finished in the top-ten in every World of Outlaws race this season. With this victory Meyers now claims the points lead in the series.

"I told someone today that the best part of this race is when the checkered flag flies and you can finally take a breath. This place is fast, wide open, and tight. Eight laps go by quickly and so do thirty-five. You kind of go out there and lay it out for the entire race," remarked Meyers. Meyers won the race by over a three second margin.
Ever the total team player, Meyers dilutes his contribution to Elite Racing’s success and places it smack on the team.
"This group of individuals has learned how to work together to achieve great things and we are doing it. Through hard work, dedication, and the right coach, this team has developed into an amazing group, which in my opinion, is capable of winning championships. From the chemistry within the team to the cohesion present between our sponsors and partners, such as K&N, this team is working together to win championships."
What's up next for Meyers and the Elite Racing Team?
"More of the same," says Meyers. We aren't done yet and there is a long season ahead. During our next two weeks away from the track, we have numerous projects planned and test days to get better. You can never rest in this sport. If you do, someone will pass you up. The World of Outlaws is once again becoming even more competitive in 2010, and we all have a lot of work ahead if we want to win this championship."
K&N Air Intake Installed on 2010 Chevrolet Camaro 3.6L V6
Dyno Chart for 2010 Chevrolet Camaro 3.6L V6
The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro 3.6L V6 rises above all that you would expect from an all-American muscle car. Great looks, quality interior and an abundance of performance separate the 2010 Camaro from others in its class. Quick acceleration and excellent handling also make the 2010 Chevy Camaro a fun and exhilarating car to drive.
K&N Cold Air Intake System for 2010 Chevrolet Camaro 3.6L V6
For added performance, K&N designed an air intake system (63-3075) that boosts horsepower while protecting your engine from elements that could damage your engine. The 2010 Camaro will really scream after this simple modification. The 63-3075 was dyno tested and shown to increase the 2010 Chevy Camaro 3.6L V6 by just under 15 horsepower at 6200 RPM.
The 63-3075 air intake replaces the restrictive factory air filter and intake housing with a custom intake tube and K&N high-flow air filter (RF-1042). By smoothing and straightening air-flow to your engine and allowing air to flow easier into your engine, more horsepower is achieved.
K&N air intakes use a washable and reusable air filter and are backed by a Million Mile Limited Warranty.
Installation of the 2010 Chevy Camaro air intake system has been made simple with K&N's installation instructions which are included with the kit.
Adams' 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Race Car doing a burnout.
Just how much do racers want to win the March Meet held each year at the Auto Club Famoso Raceway (just north of Bakersfield, California)? "I've never been so excited to win a single race like this in my life," say Jesse Adams the 28-year old Yuba City, California driver. Racing his K&N Filters sponsored classic 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, Adams took home the exclusive title of March Meet Champion in the Hot Rod category.
Racing his K&N Filters sponsored 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, Adams took home the exclusive title of March Meet Champion in the Hot Rod category.
"52 times this race has been contested at this historic racing facility and I can now proudly say that Jesse Adams won the March Meet. This is something I can tell my son about. That's how much it means to me."
"Winning the March Meet was awesome," continues Adams. "It was my first time attending the historic event, and it couldn't have been better. From the day I dropped my entry in the mail, attending the March Meet was never about the money. Traditionally these events do not provide the huge payouts that you find at other events, but the atmosphere, attendance, and history of the event make it the premier nostalgic event in the world annually."
Adams' new design was finished just before SEMA.
Adams' plan from the get-go was to have his guys, Tim Charlet and John Rogers from CRX Promotions, to generate buzz about him and the K&N Camaro. After that the pressure was all on Adams to perform.
"The car was perfect. My driving that weekend was textbook. I think my K&N teammate Dan Fletcher would have been impressed," reflects Adams. "I had many friends watching the event online, and my FaceBook was going crazy with friends, family, and fans checking in. I think overall, that is what made the whole experience great."
"Not only did I win the March Meet with the baddest racecar, supported by one of the best companies in motorsports, but I did it with so many people watching and supporting from hundreds, if not thousands of miles away. I also had a few great friends helping me out at the track. I can't explain how much fun it was."
Infinite Graphics, located in Sacramento, California, created the vinyl wrap on Adams' car; Adams used photos from Dan Fletcher's and Warren Johnson's racecars as an example. "The design was finished just before SEMA, and I believe it is a one of a kind," adds Adams.
Adams says he's been around K&N guys for years, long before he was ever even driving a racecar. "I was at the track with my dad and guys like Steve Williams, Bob Harris, Greg Boutte, and so many others were there."
"Last year I was doing very well in the Sacramento Raceway NHRA E.T. Bracket Series. I ended up winning the Super Pro track championship in my Camaro (pre-K&N colors). The best part was that I won that championship as the slowest car in the category, off the bottom bulb, and without the use of typical Super Pro electronics/driver aides."
Adams was running Comp Eliminator for the first time in Seattle, Washington, when he approached Steve Williams about wanting to become a part of the K&N team. "We talked racing for a bit and I rolled out of there with a promise of further discussion. And, a few weeks later we struck a deal."
"I must say my timing was right and I feel honored to be a part of K&N now," remarks Adams. "On one hand it puts more pressure on me to perform at the level of other K&N teammates, but on the other, my car is tough looking and has the look of a winner before it is even on the track."
Adams says he hopes to successfully defend his 2009 Sacramento Raceway Super Pro title, and he would like to dial it up one notch on his Pro E.T. second place finish from last year.
"I'll be ready for the E.T. Finals and a shot to race for the World Championship this year too," says Adams. "I also hope to attend many big buck bracket races, including the 50k race in Seattle, the Medford Megabucks event in Medford, Oregon, Thanksgiving in Las Vegas, and everything I can attend in between. I would really like to put the K&N Camaro back into legal Stock Eliminator trim and attend some National and Divisional events as well," concludes a highly motivated Adams.
Cammish scored a dominate 17 Scholarship Class wins out of 23 race starts
Daniel Cammish, 20 years old, lives in Leeds, West Yorkshire; he started racing Karts in 2004, and immediately found success. For three straight years Cammish won increasingly more challenging British Kart Championships.
Cammish's goal is to become Dunlop MSA Formula Ford British Champion
Last year Cammish was hailed as one of the United Kingdom's most talented rising stars of British motorsports. In his rookie year driving in the Dunlop MSA Formula Ford Championship, Cammish flat-out dominated; scoring a staggering 17 Scholarship Class wins out of 23 race starts. It was one of the best rookie seasons in the Championships history and a new record for scholarship wins.
"The Scholarship class is for Drivers that are new to Formula Ford and are still classed as 'rookies' in general. They must also be driving a year old car to comply with the rules. The class is designed to give less experienced drivers something to race for," explains Cammish.

"However, I pretty much re-wrote the rule book on the class when the season began in April. I qualified second overall, only a tenth shy of pole position. I was a long way ahead of a Scholarship rival and it continued from there."
Cammish says he didn't concentrate too much on the class, he focused more on where he was finishing overall against the top drivers. Using the races as a measuring stick with which to gage his prodigious skill-set increases.
Beginning with round one Cammish had 13 consecutive top-six finishes overall. This would be a very impressive run for say a second year driver, let alone for a driver in his inaugural year.
As a result of his stellar on track performances, Cammish has become a "British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC) Rising Star for 2010" - this is a huge honor. "Its great to be told your doing a good job from a third party," says Cammish.
"The BRDC are such a prestigious club and to have them choose me for the scheme separates me from the competition and gives me and immediate confidence boost and psychological advantage. I look forward to working more closely with the club once the season starts, and fingers crossed, I will meet some of the BRDC's most prestigious members along the way."
The ultimate goal for Cammish is to someday race at the very highest level of motorsports.
"The dream is of course Formula 1. But this is just a dream. There is a lot of competitive racing to be done, where talented drivers can make a living, and that is my realistic goal. Whether its Japan, America, or Australia, I believe I can make it as a professional racecar driver."
Cammish's relationship with K&N came about as a result of his yearly search for sponsorship. "My father enquired about the possible sponsorship of me for the 2010 season, and things went from there. I'm sure I can be a good Ambassador for K&N and will do my best to promote the brand whenever possible."
Cammish goes on to say that he would like to take the opportunity to thank K&N for all their support."
The plan for this season says Cammish is to become Dunlop MSA Formula Ford British Champion.
"If I achieve this, I would hope for a shot at the prestigious BRDC Autosport Young Driver of the Year Award," adds Cammish. "
"This would put me up against some of the finest junior drivers in the country, in a direct shootout to be the best. The prize includes £50,000 and a test of a McLaren F1 car. It would be a dream to win this award, and something I am very capable of."
Cory Kruseman has won a total of 148 sprint car main events and is ranked third on the all time win list for all west coast sprint cars.
Cory Kruseman, owner and operator of Kruseman's Sprint Car and Midget Driving School has been racing for 33 years. "I started racing motorcycles at the age of 6, then moved to go-karts, midgets and sprint cars. I was voted the number one sprint car driver in the world twice, won the sprint car non-wing world championship in 2001, and conquered the Chili Bowl, the biggest midget race of the season, twice," says Kruseman. He has also won a total of 148 sprint car main events and is ranked third on the all time win list for all west coast sprint cars.
Kruseman's Sprint Car and Midget Driving School is located in Ventura, California, has been in operation for 11 years.
In addition, Kruseman has raced in 3 NASCAR Craftsman truck races and competed in an IRL at Texas Motor Speedway in 2002. This long list of accomplishments certainly qualifies Kruseman as an expert racing teacher. He continues to race with his team, Kruseman Motorsports, while operating his successful driving school with his wife Carri.
Located in Ventura, California, the school instructs between 400 and 500 students a year and has been in operation for 11 years. "We have students who have never even seen a sprint car to students that race these cars every week," says Kruseman. The school has also hosted a long list of celebrities, NASCAR drivers, Indy car, drag racing and road course stars. "We also do an Arrive and Race program through our school which allows a student to come through our advanced course, and then rent a car for race night! We supply a top notch race car and a crew that takes care of everything. All the customer has to do is just show up and race," says Kruseman.
The school is always looking to improve and exceed the expectations of their students. "We are doing a lot of driver development in order to help take some of our drivers to the next level," says Kruseman. These select drivers are put in an extensive training program that includes participation in high profile races. "We also collaborate on product development with companies like K&N as a result of logging so many days of track time," says Kruseman. "K&N is the best! There are no better products on the market that protect your engine and make it faster in the process. It's a shame they don't build products for the rest of my car as well!"
Kruseman relates that he has been fortunate to be able to make a living from his love of racing for the last 21 years, so he and his wife want every racing enthusiast to have a chance to experience the thrill of the track. "You don't have to be a professional race car driver to attend our racing school. We want anyone who loves racing to come out and have some fun."
