“The K&N Products we use are second to none,” said Rougeux. “We race in very dusty conditions. K&N Keeps the dirt out of my carburetor. Our K&N air and oil filters work every time.”

The 35-lap feature started with Rougeux in the front row, in the second starting position. “The Frenchville Flyer” charged into the lead and was on his way to the win but competitor Ron Smoker had other plans. Smoker passed Rougeux on lap seven and went on to capture the win. The Rougeux Motorsports #20D was headed for a second place finish until hard contact from a fellow competitor caused Rougeux to take a step back on lap 33. He recovered from the incident to finish in third place.

“It was a great run at Del’s home track,” said Marcie Barlow of Rougeux Motorsports. “It will definitely keep Del in the hunt for the BRP/Hoosier Race Tire BRP Modified Tour 2007 title chase.”

The Rougeux Motorsports Team will be back in action next week at Sharon Speedway in Hubbard, Ohio.

On Saturday, Allard raced the K&N Filters No. 0 in the Golden State Challenge Series at Tulare. He started the evening by setting the second quickest lap in qualifying.

During the 30 lap feature, Allard made a good jump on the first start and was immediately up to second place. He went back and forth between third and second over the next 15 laps. In the end he brought home a runner up finish.

“We use K&N Engineering Oil and Air Filters along with K&N’s Carbon Fiber Air Box,” said Allard. “K&N makes the best products.”

“We had an outstanding race in Englishtown, and could very easily have won that event,” he said. “We lost by inches in the semi, to Tommy Johnson, and he went on to win it all. In Norwalk, the key accomplishment was getting qualified again. We are now the team with the longest current qualifying streak, at a massive 12 in a row. There is probably no better example of how consistent we’ve been all season than the streak. Our best days are just ahead of us.”

Team Worsham manager Bob Wilber said the key part to the accomplishment is the 11- for 11 streak. “Arend and his team have been on in 2007,” said Wilber. “He stands alone as the only Funny Car driver to have participated in all 11 races to this point, and he is bound and determined to keep that streak alive.”

Jeff Arend and his blue CSK Team use K&N Engineering Oil Filters (HP-5001) every time they race. “The thick canister walls on the K&N Filters have extra strength and durability,” said Wilber. “It reduces the risk of damage from debris on the race track. We wouldn’t dream of entering a race without K&N Filters.”
