K&N Sponsored Midget to Run in 23rd Annual Chili Bowl Nationals
The 23rd Annual Chili Bowl Nationals will get underway at QuikTrip Center’s Tulsa Expo Raceway in Oklahoma January 13-17.
The list of nearly 300 competitors is a tough crowd. Ryan Kaplan of Corey Tucker/Bryan Clauson Racing will be driving the K&N Filters midget. Kaplan is the 2007 USAC Western States Sprint Car Champion and Rookie of the Year. His teammates are Bryan Clauson, NASCAR Nationwide driver for Chip Ganassi Racing; Hunter Schuernburg with eleven wins in Indiana dirt sprint car action in 2008; Jason Meyers, 8 wins in 2008 along with 2nd place in the World of Outlaws Points Championship; Jerry Higbie, a 2008 358 Modified Track Champion at Orange County Speedway in New York and racer Billy Wilburn.
“Our whole team has great chemistry,” said Kaplan. “Ideally all six cars will run in the top ten and we’ll compete against each other for the win. With K&N filters on our cars I am confident that all of us will have great runs over the week long event.” All of the team drivers have wins in a variety of different types of racing. Bryan Clauson has had the most success at the Chili Bowl with a fourth place finish in Saturday night’s A main in 2008.
Kaplan has been working with K&N for more than three years. “K&N hands down makes the best and most reliable filters on the market,” he said. “I use K&N oil and air filters on all of my race cars as well as my production vehicles. K&N filters keep all of our motors running great and that gives us the edge we need to win against the best competition in the country.”

AT IRWINDALE SPEEDWAY
Monday, 19 November 2007
Drivers Ryan Kaplan, JoJo Helberg and Tony Hunt all have sights set on the 2007 Lucas Oil Western sprint Car Championship and each has a mathematical change of winning the title in Thursday's series finale at the Irwindale (Calif.) Speedway.
The race is part of the track's 67th Annual "Turkey Night Grand Prix" activities and only 43 points separate the three drivers with 66 points available.
Kaplan, a series "rookie' from Chico, Calif., is seeking his first USAC title and has scored two wins, two seconds and a third already this season. Helberg, of Rohnert Park, has two seconds and a third, while Hunt, of Lincoln, Calif., comes into the race with a victory and four seconds so far this year.
