K&N is the Official Air and Oil Filter for Ivan Stewart's Protruck Racing Series
- 15 Mar 2007
K&N Engineering, Inc. is proud to continue its relationship with Ivan
“Ironman” Stewart’s Protruck Racing Series for 2007.
K&N has been the Official Air Filter and Oil Filter in Protruck since 2005. Stewart started his own series years ago and has built more than 50 vehicles. “My Protrucks are designed to handle the toughest off-road racing conditions,” said Stewart. “K&N Engineering makes the best products. Our guys only use K&N Oil and Air Filters.”
Stewart also does his own sanctioning. He ran nine out of 20 Protrucks at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb last summer. The Protruck Class was new in Colorado Springs and Charles McDowell’s win at 14:33.964 set the Class record.
The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb has been an annual event since 1916. There are no guardrails, 200 foot drops and 156 hair raising turns. The course is part dirt and part pavement.
“For years we raced in Barstow on July 4th,” said Stewart. “In 2006, it was time to try one of the most recognized races in the world. The heritage at Pikes Peak is amazing. I wanted Protruck to be part of its history.”
Protruck uses the latest technology in space frame construction to provide a high performance race truck. The maximum engine size allowed in the small block V-8 class is a 360 CI, with a maximum compression ratio of 9.5:1. There is a choice of Ford, Dodge, Chevrolet, GMC and Toyota.
“We have the highest finish rate in Protrucks because we use proven products like K&N,” Stewart said. “Everyone knows K&N is the best choice for off-road filters. Their reputation has been top notch for decades and we are proud to have the K&N name associated with the Protruck Racing Series.”
