A few years back Pontiac decided to restore its reputation as GM’s High-Performance brand. Pontiac has seen much success with their line of G8 models. The G8 brings back the V8 power and rear wheel drive once missing from Pontiac’s new car offerings. A mechanical twin of the highly successful Holden Commodore sedan, the G8 rivals full size competitors from Chrysler as well as
automakers in Germany. Helping restore Pontiac’s performance heritage even more is

K&N intakes are designed to dramatically reduce intake restriction as they smooth and straighten airflow. 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 picking up the kids from school, winding along a mountain road, or
picking up speed to pass.
This air intake system uses a conical shaped high-flow chrome-top air filter (RC-5138) 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 rotationally molded high-density polyethylene tube. It offers the most flexibility in design and outstanding horsepower numbers.
The 63-3071 takes about 90 minutes or less to
install, using simple hand tools, requires no cutting or drilling, and is covered by K&N's Million Mile Limited Warranty®.
A Cal ROCS rock crawling competition was held at the Donner Ski Ranch near Lake Tahoe, California. Team Waggoner brought its moon buggy, named Roxanne, and earned its 22nd career first place win.

Team Waggoner will try for first place series title in WE ROCK West Coast Series July 18-19 in Oroville, California
“The plan for the weekend was to play it conservative and to have fun,” said Lindsay Waggoner of Team Waggoner Racing. “This was an added event and not part of the WE ROCK series. It was also a good time to make sure Roxanne was running smoothly before the final WE ROCK series event."

Cody Waggoner climbs The Wall for extra bonus points at Donner Ski Ranch near Lake Tahoe, California
The Donner Ski Ranch is known for its extreme courses. Cody Waggoner’s father was unable to make the event so Randall Davis stepped in to spot for him. “I was nervous about Randall spotting for my husband, especially since he never spotted before,” said Lindsay Waggoner. “But Randall proved to be a great asset to our team. He ran around, moved rocks and was extremely focused the entire weekend.”
Communication went well from the first course on for Waggoner and Davis. “There is no reason to try and push my rig to the extreme until it’s needed,” said Cody Waggoner. “I just drive like I know how to drive and do the best I can. That seems to work out
for the best.”
At the end of the first day of competition, Team Waggoner was sitting in second place with only 6 points to make up on Sunday. “With courses like this it’s not over until it’s over,” said Waggoner. “We still had one more day to take the lead and win the event. We also had our K&N air filter which gave us more horsepower on our engine.”
The game plan for Team Waggoner continued to be a conservative approach. “We watched the other competitors and saw what we needed to do to stay on top and take the point lead,” said Waggoner. “Rock crawling is like chess, you have to figure out what move your opponent might make and then plan accordingly. Sometimes it works out.”
Team Waggoner took on bonus Course B3, also known as The Wall. It was a straight up rock climb that was tough. Some competitors made it, some rolled off the side before getting to the top. “When you are climbing at angles that extreme all you see is the sky and you think you are at the top, but you’re not,” he said. “Once I slowed I knew we had to do something so I would not roll of the side, so I pulled the rest of the way up instead of backing down and starting over again.” The final run was very technical, but they pulled it off and took first place. “Our K&N air filter gave us more horsepower than ever on our engine,” said Waggoner. “Our motor with K&N is strong and powerful.”
Team Waggoner will battle it out for the first place series title of the 2009 WE ROCK West Coast Series July 18-19 in Oroville, California.

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.
