Racing was big on the agenda Father’s Day weekend for the Rougeux Motorsports
Team. The first competition was at Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pennsylvania
where Del Rougeux started off by drawing a good position for the heat race
events.

Rougeux started in third place at the first heat. The Big Block Dirt Modified
racer ran his 2007X Bicknell Chassis with K&N Engineering air and oil filters.
Rougeux charged into the lead and held on for the win. This was the Frenchville,
Pennsylvania racer's second Lernerville Speedway heat race victory of the year.
“The K&N Products we use are second to none,” said Rougeux. “We race in very
dusty conditions. K&N Keeps the dirt out of my carburetor. Our K&N air and oil
filters work every time.”
The Modified feature event began with Rougeux on the pole. He led the first 11
circuits before losing the lead to Kevin Bolland. Rougeux took the lead back on
lap 12 and continued to fight off Bolland’s challenges to lead laps 13 through
23. Rougeux was eventually passed by Brian Swartzlander and finished in third
place.
The next night of competition occurred at Sharon Speedway in Hubbard, Ohio. The
Rougeux Motorsports Team took the lead and went on to capture its second heat
race victory of the weekend. In the feature, Rougeux finished in third place. He
continues to lead the Modified Divisional Point Standings as a result of his two
feature wins and consistent top five finishes.

Duck Tape Racing competes in several racing series and often faces scheduling
conflicts. On Father’s Day weekend, Michael Beard had two options. He could
chase Summit Super Series points at Pageland Dragway, in Pageland, South
Carolina, or compete in a two day IHRA Summit Pro-Am Tour Stock eliminator event
in Kinston, North Carolina.

Beard decided to skip the qualifying day at Kinston and race at Pageland on
Saturday. “The results were disappointing,” he said. “However, all but one of
the competitors in the Top 5 fell in the opening round. I only dropped to 2nd in
the chase for points.”
On Sunday, Beard raced at Kinston without a qualifying run and was placed in the
bottom of the pack. His first round opponent red-lighted and he advanced six
rounds to face off Division 9 points leader Scott Macy in the finals. “I broke
out by just .002 seconds and had to settle for runner-up,” said Beard. “I’ve
jumped to 7th place in Stock eliminator.”
Beard uses K&N Engineering products. “K&N filters are not just for race cars,”
he said. “Towing is hard on vehicles, too. I use the same K&N oil filters on my
daily driver and tow vehicles as I do on the race cars. It’s piece of mind,
because I have premium protection for everything I drive. While changing the oil
on my tow vehicle, I discovered that I had misplaced my oil filter wrench. With
K&N oil filters, that’s not a problem. The filters incorporate a nut on the top,
which makes removing filters easy with a standard wrench. K&N means convenience,
protection and performance.”
Beard’s national event schedule starts this weekend at Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Chico, California’s Jonathan Allard did everything he could to win the 36th
annual Jim Raper Memorial Dirt Cup at Skagit Speedway near Burlington,
Washington. The defending King of California fought through adversity Father’s
Day weekend to win a third straight Dirt Cup, but brought home second place.
Jonathan Allard and K&N Filters No.0
On the final night of action, Allard had the pole position for the A-main.
There was a lot of wet weather and the track was very fast. He scored a second
place finish in the scramble.

In the 40 lap main, the K&N No.0 was one of the fastest cars on the track.
Allard worked the bottom and kept the other competitors at bay. He was able to
work through lapped traffic but his toughest competitors were right on his back.
With just under 15 laps remaining, Jeff Hodgson went to the inside and boxed
Allard in. A couple of laps later Allard got a break as the caution came out.
Allard hit the restart perfectly but on lap 34 he had to deal with Hodgson
again. Midway through the corner, Hodgson swung wide and forced Allard to save
his car from spinning out. Allard could not make it back in time and had to
settle for second place.
Allard was disappointed with the finish, but overall he has not been out of the
top five in a main event since May 19. “We use K&N Engineering Oil and Air
Filters along with K&N’s Carbon Fiber Air Box,” said Allard. “K&N makes the best
products, the oil and air filters are easy to use and maintain. Racing is easier
with K&N.”
Allard and the Williams Motorsports Team return to California this week for the
Golden State Challenge Series at American Valley Speedway in Quincy.
