The 2009 NHRA K&N Horsepower Challenge will be contested next weekend at the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio.

The top eight Pro Stock drivers who accumulated the most points while qualifying during the 23-race NHRA series will have a shot at a big purse. The winner of the bonus event will earn $50,000 along with a championship ring and a trophy. The runner-up will pocket $10,000 and two semifinalists will receive $3,000 each. The four first round finishers will each earn $2,500.

Three-time Pro Stock world champion Greg Anderson leads the pack and will take the top spot in the 2009 K&N Horsepower Challenge. He accumulated the most points while qualifying. Mike Edwards is in second place, followed by Allen Johnson, Jason Line, Kurt Johnson, Jeg Coughlin, Warren Johnson and Ron Krisher.

The Pro Stock class is about the delivery of air flow. K&N is in a class of its own when it comes to hood scoops. “K&N has worked hard to create new technology for the NHRA Pro Stock category,” said K&N Vice President of Research and Development Steve Williams. “We have an K&N Pro Stock Intake System available for the world’s fastest hot rods and we are putting up the money to see who is really the fastest.”

K&N has also developed racing filters for every form of racing in the world. K&N air filters are designed to increase horsepower and acceleration while providing excellent filtration.

In 2008, Allen Johnson put a perfect light on the board (.000) and beat Greg Anderson on a hole shot to take home the K&N Horsepower Challenge title along with the $50,000. “We appreciate the opportunity to qualify in the 2009 K&N Horsepower Challenge,” said Anderson. “Everything from K&N works great.”

Anderson is hoping for a reversal of fortune in 2009. “How can anyone win without K&N,” said Anderson. “We all use K&N products out here and are proud to do it. The K&N Pro Stock Intake System is important to the Pro Stock category. It’s a big advantage to get the maximum amount of air to the engine in this class.”

First round pairings for the 2009 K&N Horsepower Challenge are:

Greg Anderson vs. Ron Krisher
Mike Edwards vs. Warren Johnson
Allen Johnson vs. Jeg Coughlin
Jason Line vs. Kurt Johnson

The K&N Horsepower Challenge will be aired on Saturday June 27 on ESPN2 during the qualifying show from 5pm – 7 pm PST.

Allard took the win by a single vote in what is considered one of the toughest categories voted on by the Motor Sports Press Association. This is the 43rd year the MSPA has presented the oval track - open wheel award. Allard beat out a number of top drivers on a ballot that included three series champions, including Civil War Series winner Sean Becker.

Allard is one of the top sprint car drivers in the west. He joined the Williams Motorsports Team in 2005 and continues to add to his racing resume. “It really is a big accomplishment and I couldn’t be more excited to win this award,” said Allard. “We had a really good year in 2008 and we’re off to another great start in 2009.”

In 2008, Allard became the 3rd driver to capture multiple championships in the 23 year history of the Golden State Challenge Series. Allard also took third in the World of Outlaw Sprint Car Series sanctioned 55th annual Gold Cup Race of Champions at Silver Dollar Speedway.

He also picked up a huge victory during the 17th annual Pacific Sprint Fall Nationals and scored a trio of wins in New Zealand.

This year, Allard is strong again and is currently leading the point standing with the Golden State Challenge Series in his K&N Filters No.0. He hopes to get his third career series title, which would make him the second driver in series history to reach at least three King of California championships.

Allard plans to be at the top of his game all season. He continues to use K&N products. “K&N makes the best oil and air filters for our cars,” he said. “K&N is easy to use and maintain. We just wash, assemble and race.”

His next race will be the 38th annual Jim Raper Memorial Dirt Cut June 18 at Skagit Speedway in Alger, Washington.
