Bud Kaeding Wins Budweiser Oval Nationals and USAC K&N SIlver Crown Title

Bud Kaeding had one thing in mind as he went into the Budweiser Oval Nationals, to become the first driver to reach three wins in the prestigious event at the Perris Auto Speedway in California.

The 27-year-old went into the year’s series as a part-time non-wing sprint car driver. He managed to beat the best in the business to win his third career Oval Nationals Title. “I’m so excited right now I can’t believe it,” said Kaeding. “My wife is pregnant and this will definitely help buy some diapers. I’m so happy for this whole team.”

The Budweiser Oval Nationals began as an event in 1996 and is arguable the biggest non-wing sprint car race in the country. The 12th installment of this event kicked off with a field of 68 wingless 410 series sprint cars. The three night show uses a points format and there is a lot of action.

Kaeding qualified eighth quickest on opening night in the stacked field aboard the Kaeding Performance, BK Motorsports, High Five Pizza No. 29 with K&N Engineering Products. He was able to transfer to the feature.

Kaeding was able to take the win and claim the $30,000 purse. The Campbell, California resident and his crew use K&N Engineering Products. “K&N Airboxes an Oil Filters work great,” he said. “Our engine builder wouldn’t use anything else. K&N Products helped us win the Oval Nationals Title and took us all the way to the K&N Silver Crown Title.” Kaeding had enough points and only needed to start the 100-mile Copper World Classic feature at Phoenix, Arizona International Raceway to lock up his second consecutive K&N USAC Silver Crown Championship.

In January, Kaeding will be toasted as USAC’s K&N Silver Crown driving champion for the second straight year. The champions will gather at Indianapolis, Indiana for USAC’s Night of Champions National Awards dinner.

2006 to 2012 Triumph Daytona 675 Motorcycle Riders Get Performance with New K&N Air Filter

Triumph's 2006 to 2012 Daytona 675 motorcycle is one of the sportiest machines to ever roll out of the Hinckley factory. The seat angles down and pushes its rider toward the tank, making the riding position pure sport. It is one of the hottest classes in motorcycles designed for the rider who is looking for something other than a totally dedicated track tool.

K&N Engineering has released a new washable and reusable lifetime air filter (TB-6706) for the 2006 to 2012 Triumph Daytona 675 motorcycle. K&N motorcycle air filters are designed to increase horsepower and acceleration while providing excellent air filtration.

The TB-6706 is engineered to fit into the Daytona's factory air box using stock mounting points. Simply remove the stock filter and replace it with the K&N air filter by attaching it using the air box screws. There is never any cutting or fitting required.

Use of the stock OEM "O" Ring provides a factory seal to ensure no dust gets past the K&N air filter. Since it is a replacement air filter, fuel-management changes are not necessary to receive optimum performance.

K&N invented the concept of washable, reusable air filters more than 35 years ago. K&N On-Road Air Filters feature the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.

The TB-6706 fits the following vehicle applications:
