Filtre à air pour la Volkswagen Passet et l’Audi A3

Jordan Phillips’ Run for the Podium in GNCC Round 6 Derailed by Tree Branch

1 juin 2017

In a wet and wild Grand National Cross Country Series (GNCC) round 6 in Peru, Indiana, Jordan Phillips’ hard-charging run for the podium was stifled by a tree branch. The already challenging X-Factor course was made even more brutal with the wet and muddy conditions that a storm front inflicted.

“The course had a mix of everything such as tight wooded sections, steep hills, off camber sections, and plenty of muddy areas,” reported Phillips. “Saturday morning before our 10:00 am race time, the temperatures were in the low 50s, which was a bit chilly.”

In the main event, Phillips got a great start off the line and was engaged in a fast and competitive fight for the podium. However, he soon found himself slaloming around stuck ATVs.

“When the green flag dropped I rocketed forward and headed to the woods in 3rd,” said Phillips. “The first lap went smooth and I maintained 3rd. The second lap was pretty eventful with sport quads stuck everywhere. There were deep ruts everywhere. I picked a couple of bad lines and checked in 5th.”

Carrying good speed and picking better lines, Phillips found his way back to podium contention.

“The third lap was better and I moved up to 4th,” Phillips said. “However, a storm moved in and began pouring the rain during the entire last lap. I made a pass for 3rd.”

Things were looking good for a top-three finish but nature was not done influencing the outcome of the race.

“With 3 miles to go I encountered a lap rider, and as I tried to make a pass I wedged a tree branch under my machine,” said Phillips. "It took me around ten minutes to free the branch. I put the hammer down and finished the race. By the checkered flag, I had to settle for 5th in 4x4 Pro and 10th overall.”

Phillips will be back in action in Athens, Ohio, for the seventh round of the GNCC series.

Jordan Phillips races a Can-Am Renegade 1000 which gets added airflow and protection from the K&N CM-8012 air filter. To find the perfect filter or intake for your UTV check out K&N’s online application tool.

Davi Haagsma Retains WORCS Pro SxS Lead Despite Obstacles in Rounds 7 and 8

1 juin 2017

Davi Haagsma's podium finish in round 7 extends his points lead

K&N-sponsored Pro side-by-side racer Davi Haagsma left the Utah swing of the WORCS schedule with a hard-fought podium finish in St. George and a disappointing DNF in Cedar City. However, most importantly, he also left the state with a solid series lead.

For Haagsma, the entire 2017 WORCS season has included the turbo versus naturally-aspirated debate. While Haagsma has a turbo car in development, he has competed in a non-turbo through the first 8 round of the WORCS schedule.

Haagsma has opted for the reliability and familiarity of the naturally aspirated UTV over the raw power of the turbo. It’s hard to argue with his rationale as he holds a solid double digit lead in the Pro class. He has maintained a 14-point lead despite the fact that the top podium spot eluded him in the two Utah races on the schedule.

Round 7 - Sand Hollow State Park, St. George, Utah

Haagsma extended his points lead in the WORCS Series Pro SxS class after a third-place finish at Sand Hollow State Park in St. George, Utah. As has been the theme throughout the season, Haagsma was again driving the top finishing naturally aspirated car in the class.

Despite being underpowered, Haagsma racked up his fifth podium finish in six races. That consistency has been a huge part of the grip H&M Motorsports holds in the points lead in the SxS Pro Class.

“The sand takes a lot of horsepower and I knew I was underpowered,” Haagsma said. “I had to race with the turbo cars and try to make it to the finish. With three corners to go, I got into the smoother stuff and barely got by for third. I had two more corners to block him and made it home third. Overall it was a good day points wise.”

Round 8 - Iron Mine Race Park, Cedar City, Utah

Haagsma grabbed the holeshot at the start of the Iron Mine race in southern Utah in his naturally aspirated car. He lost the lead to a turbo car on one of the track’s wide-open sections. Haagsma stayed consistent and competitive, and regained the lead on the final lap. He seemed well on his way to the win in Cedar City when he suffered a race-ending belt failure.

“On the very last lap, I passed Ryan (Piplic) and then about 20 seconds later I blew up the belt,” said Haagsma, “That ended my race.”

Haagsma holds the series lead going into the final three rounds of the season

While obviously disappointed in the mechanical failure that ended a promising day at Iron Mine, Haagsma stayed positive by looking at the big picture.

“This is not the race I wanted, but I still have a decent points lead,” said Haagsma. “We have to do well the next races.”

The WORCS season will move to Glen Helen Raceway in Devore, California, for the series’ Summer Festival.

David Haagsma's series-leading naturally aspirated Polaris SxS runs the new K&N 63-1133 Aircharger performance air intake. Use the K&N search by vehicle tool to find the performance and protection you need for your UTV.

K&N-Sponsored Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Chelsea Denofa Give Ride Alongs at HyperFest

Formula Drift drivers Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Chelsea Denofa took time out of their busy schedules to attend the HyperFest event at Virgina International Raceway, providing ridealongs and drifting demos over the course of the weekend. HyperFest is an automotive festival which provides a slew of different driving events including drifting games, high performance driver experience (HPDE), off-roading, rally racing, go kart races, and even a burnout competition. Gittin Jr. and Denofa provided more than 30 ridealongs through the weekend in a pair of K&N-equipped Ford Mustang RTRs, with smiles emerging from every passenger that was given the experience.

Gittin Jr. and Denofa are both veterans of the HyperFest experience. Gittin Jr. has attended every Hyperfest event since 2003, while this year was a return to the event for Denofa who missed the past few seasons but attended many times when the event was held at Summit Point International Raceway. “If any place is the epitome of automotive culture, this is it. Hyperfest is a relaxed event full of fun-seekers like me. There are so many activities to choose from, and it’s great to see everyone bringing their rides out and just enjoying the culture,” said Gittin Jr.

The drifting portion of Hyperfest was part of the Street Driven Tour this year, combining some open drifting sessions on the 1.1-mile Patriot course with ‘drifting games’ that include drift soccer, hard parking, and a 360 competition. The event gives drivers like Gittin Jr. and Denofa a rare opportunity to give back to local drivers with tips on how to improve their driving, as well as provide a first-hand experience to newer spectators who haven’t had the opportunity to ride in a drift car before. “Hearing the passengers get out of the car and get excited about the adrenaline rush from being sideways is exactly why we do these ride alongs,” said Denofa at the event. “The smiles speak for themselves”.

After a rare weekend off, Gittin Jr. and Denofa are preparing for Round 4 of the Formula Drift Pro Championship in Wall, New Jersey. Gittin Jr. is the defending event winner, and has previous podiumed a total of five times (2 wins, 3 second place finishes) in eleven appearances. Denofa has struggled with mechanical issues and crashes in previous years at Wall Speedway, but has high hopes after joining the Ford Mustang RTR drift team in the offseason and earning his first Top 16 appearance of the season in Atlanta and a “one more time” battle with Ryan Tuerck. Gittin Jr. currently sits in fifth place overall in the championship standings, while Denofa is tied for eighteenth overall.
