The No. 1 Toyota Truck for Red Horse Racing in K&N colors will hit the pavement in the 2009 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Daytona International Speedway.
No. 1 Red Horse Racing K&N Toyota Truck will debut at the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Daytona International Speedway
Johnny Benson is last year’s NASCAR Craftsman Truck Champion. Benson will pilot the Red Horse Racing K&N Truck. His teammate T.J. Bell will pilot the No. 11 Red Horse Racing Toyota Tundra.
“Johnny had the number one spot last year in the series and it seemed fitting that the person who is number one, would drive the No. 1 truck,” said Thomas DeLoach, Red Horse Racing Owner and Managing Partner. “I want the headlines to read Number One Won One.”
Benson is paired with crew chief Trip Bruce at Red Horse Racing. Together Benson
and Bruce have scored nine wins, 26 top-five finishes and 37 top ten finishes in 50 starts. “We are excited to have Johnny,” said DeLoach. “He is one of the most accomplished drivers in NASCAR. He’s won races at every level and has won championships all the way back to his ASA days. “
Bell had his career best NASCAR Camping World Truck Series last season and earned the Most Improved Driver Award in 2008. The 2009 inaugural NASCAR Camping World Truck race will mark Bell’s first time racing at Daytona in one of NASCAR’s top three elite series.
“We use K&N air and oil filters on both trucks,” said DeLoach. “K&N makes a product that provides good air flow to the engine to develop the maximum horsepower we need to win.”
Benson is looking to win another title trophy after edging out Rod Hornaday, Jr., by seven points last year. The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series returns to SPEED TV. It will begin with the season-opening NextEra Energy Resources 250 on February 13. SPEED will broadcast 23 of the 25 races.

"Our research and development program is the best in the business," says Schmidt. "We don't build cookie cutter crate engines. We build custom competition racing engines that win." Over the years, that has certainly proven to be true. Schmidt Racing customers have set over 40 records in Comp Eliminator and won many Division Championships, as well as 22 national events in NHRA Pro Stock. In 2002, Steve even provided the horsepower for The Spirit of DUNLOP, a car commissioned by Dunlop Tires. Fitted with Schmidt's powerful 1300 HP 585 cubic inch big block Chevy engine, the car broke the World Land Speed Record using standard production tires as well as the South African Land Speed Record.
The future looks bright for this engine builder to the champions and Steve is currently working on some new NHRA Pro Stock engine projects. "I am also developing some new 5.2 and 5.3 bore center +860 cubic inch engines, which will be outfitted with K&N filters," says Schmidt. "We use K&N filters exclusively on all of our race engines. We offer a one year warranty on our products, so we can't take a chance on using anything but the very best parts."
K&N has your filtration needs covered whether you need protection for the street or for the track.

There is a level of endurance necessary to take a truck on a 425 mile desert race which batters the body and punishes the vehicle. “It’s hard to understand the feel of it without experiencing it first hand,” said Brad Lovell. “The bruises and aches I have are a testament to the difficulty of such a race.”

King of the Hammers competition in 2008 with Team Lovell
The Parker 425 takes place along the Colorado River which is surrounded by thousands of square miles of desert. Racers drive three laps around a 140 mile course. “Our team piloted the No. 7231 Ford Ranger into the desolate landscape,” said Lovell. “There were four of us, Bill Kunz, Greg Jones and Bradley Bolton rounded up our team.”

Kunz and Lovell took the green flag and began their 235 mile leg. “I was a little nervous about the unknown
terrain, but got comfortable quickly,” said Lovell. “I started calling out turns and hazards from our GPS map. This job proved to be very important as we passed multiple trucks and buggies upside down or crashed within the first ten miles
of the race.”
Simple tasks like focusing on gauges was a constant effort for the racers due to the bright sun, dust and constant jarring on the course. Before pit number one the vehicle Lovell was navigating slowed to a stop. The entire wheel and tire were missing and they had to call the chase crew. After about an hour of work they were back in the game.
“We had more hammering and jarring,” said Lovell. “My helmet slammed into my head
when we crashed into an overgrown washboard that was up to five feet deep. The whole process
was extremely violent. This is why people say desert racing is like a 24-hour plane crash.”
After the sand wash, the team made it to the high land. “Bill opened up all 496 horsepower and we topped out at nearly 100 mph,” said Lovell. “It is,
however, very difficult to determine when there is a faster car behind you and
the hazards that can bring to you.”
Vehicles can hide in the thick dust and the loudest sirens are muted. Lovell said the aggressive way to make a pass is to simply crash into the truck in front of you. “We learned this first hand when an unlimited buggy slammed into us,” he said. “We were doing about 65 mph at the time and the buggy was doing about 90 mph. The rear of our truck lifted and slid to the side and we just let him by.”
The next hurdle was a desert downpour. Silt and sand became miles of mud as the low areas filled with water. “Chances were, if we stopped for any reason we wouldn’t get going again,” said Lovell. “We were soaked and cold and our communications went out because of the moisture. We made it to Pit Three and the next crew took over.”
The Ford Ranger was equipped with a K&N. “It was filthy out there but with our K&N air filter we had one less thing to worry about,” said Lovell. “We got the extra filtration we needed
in the desert mud, sand and silt with K&N.”
Eventually a rear suspension link ended the race for the four. Only 76 of the 275 entries finished the race and many teams abandoned their rigs in the desert and had to retrieve them later.
Brad and his brother Roger Lovell are looking forward to their next event, the King of the Hammers Race. “It’s an epic race, and one of the most daring in rock sports,” said Lovell. “We hope to bring home the win for K&N in our FABTECH Ford Ranger.”
