Carl is also looking forward to the off season to spend some extra time with his family and enjoy the little down time. So keep your eye on Carl and his team to come out focused and prepared for the 2017 season, and looking to start out strong and continue that all the way through the season.

Ray Cook took the lead of the 'Hangover' on Lap 15 then cruised to the win at 411 Motor Speedway

Cook’s second spot in his group’s qualifying put him second in the outside row, fourth overall for the 40-lap main event. After jumping to third on the start, Cook went backward again to fourth while trying to take second. After a bit of work, he found a clear path to the leader, McIntosh, who had sprinted away with the others behind fighting for second.

“By about lap 7 or 8, the leader had about a straightaway lead,” Cook said. “The car had been flawless all day and I knew I just had to be patient.”

Ray Cook's win gave him a $4,000 payday, a pretty nice way to ring in the New Year

“It’s huge,” Cook said. “You’re only as good as your last race. Since we won’t race until January 28, it gives us a nice period to enjoy the win.”

The win came with his Capital Race Cars Super Late Model chassis and using and older, though obviously still strong, 427-based V8 from South Carolina’s Kenny Lamb Racing Engines. That engine breathes through a K&N air cleaner on the carburetor and also uses K&N oil filers on the dry sump system.

Ray has been a K&N driver for more than 20 years. “We’ve been using K&N my whole career,” he said. “We’ve had great success with them and never had a single issue with any of their parts.”

He expects a similar schedule in 2017, though he’s looking forward to his first race of the year, the Cabin Fever 40 at Boyd’s Speedway in Ringgold, Georgia. Cook won that race in 2009 and finished a strong third last year, so he looks to carry his Hangover victory into a great start to 2017.

“When I first saw the Challenger driving down the road, I said WOW that thing is beautiful!”

What helped him keep up with suspects for years and years? Mopar Muscle. This definitely influenced Bill’s preference on the ‘ol Ford, Chevy, or Dodge question. He’s a Mopar Man, all the way. He was most likely swayed by the team of powerful Mopar-powered cruisers he was exposed to early in his career. “Sometimes we would have multiple suspects lined up out on the street and we’d call for backup. You could hear the sound of their 340ci Belvedere’s four-barrel carb sucking in massive amounts of air a mile away, and that was a comforting feeling.

The 4.7L twin-screw Kenne Bell supercharger has a rear-facing intake, opposite of most setups.

He acted on that “love” and ordered a 2011 Dodge Challenger with a 392ci Hemi and 6-Speed manual transmission right away. “Right after break in,” he says, “l started racing it at the drag strip.” After some time, his tolerance for speed had increased, and the car just didn’t seem fast enough. He investigated the option of installing a tuner on his Challenger, however Chrysler had locked the computer and nobody had cracked it 2011 yet. So what does he do? Buy a 2010 Challenger, obviously!

Bill’s Challenger makes well over 1,200HP to the crank.

First on the mod list was an NHRA-legal roll bar (safety first!), followed by a BES Racing Engine 436ci Gen III Hemi to power this beast. It gets better...he then outfitted his Hemi with a 4.7L Kenne Bell twin-screw supercharger capable of producing 1,600 horsepower.

Bill definitely spares no expense when it comes to engine building, and he doesn’t cheap out on the smaller but equally important parts either. When deciding on a filter Bill went with K&N’s RU-3100, a massive 6” flange universal cone-filter to fit the large oval shaped throttle body on his Kenne Bell supercharger. He had a cutout made in his cowl hood to direct fresh cool air into his intake, and that was that! Bill was able to get this part by using our universal cone-filter search lookup.

Once bill had all he needed to quench his speed-fix, he headed to the dyno room. Turns out, his 2010 Dodge Challenger puts out a stunning 1,018 horsepower to the wheels and 856 lb-ft torque on the chassis dyno. Interestingly enough, Bill runs E85 fuel in his car even at 20 psi. He has precisely metered squirts of methanol injection at the ready in case ambient conditions call for additional octane.

The cowl hood on Bill’s 2010 Challenger provides maximum airflow to his Kenne Bell supercharger

At the dragstrip Bill’s Challenger ran a 9.76 at 144mph making it the first Challenger to run 9s in the quarter-mile that’s also driven to and from events without a trailer. This car has been called the “Hellcat Killer” by some and amazingly enough, this car was around a few years before Chrysler revealed their factory 707HP “fastest production car”. Could it be possible that an engineer from Mopar saw him do a few runs at the track one time and became full of inspiration? We’d like to think so!

Either way, Bill Scharing could be called a visionary, trendsetter, rebel with a cause or even just your everyday car-lover. It’s safe to say, Bill has definitely showed how his Detective work and Law Enforcement career influenced his passion for speed and support for the Chrysler/Dodge/Mopar brands. If a type of car helped you put away several criminals throughout your career, you just might be partial to that specific brand as well.

As night fell on the Parker 250, Mitch Guthrie Jr. stood alone as number 1

“With the dust just settling from the 2016 season, and with just one month (off), it was game on for the first race of the 2017 season, the Parker 250. A lot of hard work went into stripping down the car to the chassis and fully rebuilding it within less than a month, and going testing to make sure everything was perfect. We were excited for a fresh season, new sponsors, and what would be our 2nd season racing BITD.

Mitch Guthrie Jr. roosted his way to a convincing win in Parker

“We woke up to cloudy skies and perfect racing conditions to start off the new season. The first race of the day was the short-course race where I was looking to have some fun and possibly see some of the track. We had a land rush start with at least 20-plus cars all barreling into the first corner. I was able to come out of the first corner in second, and the race was on. Unfortunately, this didn't last too long, as a few miles in on a very fast section of the course, I lost control and went for a wild ride. Thankfully I was okay. We pulled the car back to the pits, and it was time to focus on the big desert race coming up.

“Going into lap two it was game on. Knowing we had a stacked field chasing us down, it was time to hammer down. We pulled out of main pits and now that my co-driver Kurtis and I had the track down, we knew we could form a cushion between us and the rest of the pack. Without having to deal with dust, or many lappers, I focused on hitting our marks and getting a good gap. After a nearly flawless 80 mile lap we came into the pits once more to fuel up for our third and final lap. After fuel and a quick look-over we were out of the pits and on to the home stretch.

Mitch Guthrie Jr. thanked his sponsors for their continued support

K&N congratulates Mitch Guthrie Jr. on his Parker 250 win. We are excited to continue to support the Guthrie Racing Team. Demanding conditions require the ultimate in engine protection.

Das K&N Hitzeschild verhindert, dass die warme Motorraumluft des 2015 Volkswagen Passat 1,8 und 2014-2016 VW Jetta in das Luftansaugsystem eindringt, plus es nutzt die Vorteile des ab Fabrik Kaltluft Einlasses.

Der 2014-2016 Volkswagen Jetta GLI ist ein praktisches Auto für Menschen mit Geschmack. Die meisten erschwinglicheren kompakten Limousinen sind etwa so langweilig, wie ein 2-stündiger Dokumentarfilm über die Geschichte von Dokumentarfilmen. Der VW Jetta GLI auf der anderen Seite, stellt Spaß in den Mittelpunkt mit einem niederen Sportfahrwerk, eine Vorderradaufhängung, mit der Sie durch Kurven sausen und aggressives Styling.

Der 2015 Passat hat einen 1,8 Turbo-4 mit Ladeluftkühlung, der beeindruckende 210 PS hat und 207 lb-ft Drehmoment, aber sogar das kann mit einem K&N Luftansaugsystem verbessert werden.

Der 2014-2017 VW Jetta GLI hat auch eine Ladeluftkühlung im 1,8 L Turbo-4, der beeindruckende 210 PS und 207 lb-ft Drehmoment unter der Haube hat. Dieser Motor wurde für den 2015 Passat zur Verfügung gestellt. Das ist genug damit Sie 60 Mph in den hohen 6 Sekunden zu schaffen. Aber wenn Sie Ihren Volkswagen in einen richtigen Autobahn Cruiser verwandeln möchten, kann das K&N 69-9507TTK Typhoon Performance Luftansaugsystem schätzungsweise 3,8 PS und 5,7 lb-ft Drehmoment hinzufügen. Und indem die Einschränkung des Luftstroms eliminiert wird, kann der K&N Einlass den Turbo schneller aufspulen für mehr sofortige Gasaufnahme.

Um mehr Kraft zu haben, nützt ein Turbo Motor Abgase, um eine Turbine zu spinnen, die Luft in den Einlass zwingt. Aber die Luft muss zuerst gekühlt werden, so wird es durch eine Art von „Luftkühler“ geleitet, genannt Ladekühler. Da Kraftstoff Luft braucht, um zu brennen, ist es besser, ein hohes Volumen von sauerstoffreicher kalter Luft hinzuzufügen und das führt zu einem stärkeren Verbrennungszyklus, was zu mehr Pferdestärken führt. Jedoch verwenden die meisten ab Fabrik Luftansaugsysteme, wie das in Ihrem 2014 - 2016 Jetta/Passat 1,8 L Turbo, schmale Einlass Röhren, die voll von scharfen Kurven und anderen Hindernissen sind.

Das ab Fabrik Luftansaugsystem kann dazu führen, dass die Luft herumwirbelt als es in das System kommt, und diese Turbulenzen können den Ladeluftkühler weniger wirksam machen. Durch den Wegfall dieser Einschränkungen und einer Begradigung des Luftstroms, kann das K&N 69-9507TTK Typhoon Performance Luftansaugsystem dem Motor ein größeres Volumen von kalter Luft zuführen. Das erhöht die Kraft des Motors von ungefähr der gleichen Menge an Kraftstoff.

Um Ihrem VW Turbo mehr Luft zu geben, ersetzt das K&N 69-Series Typhoon Performance Luftansaugsystem die schmale ab Fabrik Plastik Aufnahme Röhre mit einem breiteren, pulverbeschichteten Aluminium Ansaugrohr. Das Aluminiumrohr nutzt einen Biegedorn gebogenen Aluminium Luft, um einen glatten Luftstrom Pfad mit niedriger Einschränkung zu haben.

Die Luft kommt in das System durch ein High-Flow K&N Performance Luftfilter, das hinter einem anwendung-spezifischen Luftfilter Hitzeschild liegt, wo die ab Fabrik Airbox vorher war. Das K&N Hitzeschild verhindert, dass warme Motorraum Luft in das System eindringt, und es nutzt den Vorteil des ab Fabrik Kaltluft Zulaufs.

Das große, wiederverwendbare K&N Baumwollgaze Luftfilter enthalten im Lufteinlass 69-9507TTK ist in der Lage ein großes Volumen an Luft zu filtern; es entfernt Verunreinigungen, die so klein sind wie der Durchmesser eines menschlichen Haares. Der Schmutz bleibt auch in den geölten Baumwollfasern für bis zu 100 000 Meilen gefangen, bevor das Filter (je nach Fahrbedingungen) gereinigt werden muss. Und da die von einem Biegedorn gebogenen Einlassrohre eingebaute Armaturen für die Vakuumleitungen haben, können Sie das K&N Typhoon Luftansaugsystem in ca. 90 Minuten mit einfachen Handwerkzeugen einbauen.

Jedes K&N Performance Luftansaugsystem wurde entwickelt, um an einen bestimmten Motor zu passen, also werden Sie nie eine Reihe von ‚universellen Teilen‘ bekommen. K&N nimmt Qualität sehr ernst, und jedes von unseren Luftansaugsystemen wird von einer 10 Jahre / Million Meilen begrenzter Garante gedeckt. Um PS Gewinne zu überprüfen, ein K&N 69-9507TTK Typhoon Performance Luftansaugsystem wurde an einen ab Fabrik 2015 Volkswagen Passat 1.8L installiert. Die Dyno Tests zeigten eine geschätzte Zunahme von 3,84 PS und 5,7 lb-ft Drehmoment. Gasannahme und Motorsound wurden ebenfalls stark verbessert. Aber Ihre individuellen Ergebnisse können variieren aufgrund der Laufzeit, Modifikationen und zustand von Ihrem spezifischen Jetta GLI / Passat.

K&N macht auch viele andere Performance Teile, die an alles von Acura bis zu Yamaha passen. Wenn Sie sich über sie informieren wollen, klicken Sie bitte hier und nutzen das 'Suche nach Fahrzeug' Tool zu verwenden, oder klicken Sie hier, um einen K&N Händler in Ihrer Nähe zu finden.
