Greg Adler’s PRO 4 with the new design promoting Autism Awareness

The battle was so intense Greg almost lost the roof getting on the podium

In the off-season Greg Adler and the 4 Wheel Parts Team worked on a brand new Pro 4 for the 2016 Lucas Oil Off-Road Race Series (LOORRS) season. With hard work and dedication from himself and his team, Greg was able to get the truck ready for a battle. “I don’t think there is a harsher environment to subject your motor to than short course off-road racing. We race 900 HP trucks sometimes inches apart with mud, dust, and dirt flinging everywhere. We rely on K&N filters to protect our motor through every lap while giving us that extra power that will get us to the checkered flag,” Greg explained. He was able to capture a third place finish in Round 2 on the opening weekend of the Lake Elsinore race.

When you think your schedule couldn’t be any busier, you need to look at Greg’s and consider yourself lucky. Greg’s schedule consists of being a race car driver, team owner, President and CEO of 4 Wheel Parts with over 1500 employees, a husband, and a father. Greg also makes time to figure out ways to use his exposure to help people in several different ways. One of them is, “April is Autism Awareness Month,” said Adler. “Due to our being made aware that our son is on the Autism spectrum, my wife Stacy and I were able to begin early treatment and training to assist him in overcoming many of the challenges related to Autism. We were fortunate to have been made aware by our doctor and with racing, along with the media exposure it receives, we are able to promote the importance of Autism awareness at the Lucas Oil Off Road Race in Lake Elsinore.”

With a schedule like Greg’s you don’t normally think there is time for anything else, and if there is, its time to spend with his family. But, he somehow still finds time to do things that brighten people’s days. Heading into the next two rounds of racing in Lake Elsinore, The Jessie Rees Foundation asked Greg if he would like to join a few of the top drivers from each division along with some of the Lucas Oil executives to visit with some of the children in Loma Linda Children’s Hospital. “The Jessie Rees Foundation was created in honor of a young girl, Jessie Rees, who wanted to put smiles on the faces of children fighting cancer,” said Adler. “Jessie herself was battling the disease when she decided to create little ‘Joy Jars’ containing toys for kids of all ages. I was honored to be invited to spend some time with these strong and courageous children. In meeting these kids from 5 months to 18 years old, I was completely blown away by the great attitudes of these kids. Despite their treatments, these kids were smiling and very happy to receive the Joy Jars along with the toy trucks and Barbie’s we gave them”.

Greg also added, “We shared with them Jessie’s motto of Never Ever Give Up (NEGU) which is so uplifting for these children. I left there feeling inspired by their strength and spirit and could not help but to think about my own children, and how fortunate I truly am. On Saturday, the Jessie Rees Foundation brought a young man named Dylan to our pit. We were able to spend some time together, showing him the truck, the team hauler, and talking about racing. I told Dylan that I was going to get on the podium for him and bring him the trophy. It was great to come through on that and win that trophy for such a courageous young man.”

A little sacrifice was given to get on the podium

Greg Adler has proven himself to be a great motivator in the off road racing community. Greg has shown that just when you think you are too busy to do something for someone else, there is always a way to make time and make it happen. It’s amazing to think that something so small to you may make the biggest difference for someone else that needs it.

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series has a long history of developing the stars of stock car racing. Kyle Larson, Joey Logano, and Chase Elliott are some of the more recent drivers who started their ascension to NASCAR stardom in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series. Today, Todd Gilliland, Justin Haley, and Chris Eggleston are the rising stars of the series.

“That was a series you always grew up wanting to race in. Last year, getting the opportunity to run a full season, let alone winning the championship, was really cool,” said Eggleston, who won the K&N Pro Series West championship in 2015. “K&N, they does a lot for that series, the West and the East Series. It’s an awesome title sponsor to have on board. It gives kids and other drivers a chance to fulfill their dreams, to keep working on their goals of moving up into the top tier of racing. It’s a great stepping-stone series.”

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series is the final step in the ladder to the national touring divisions of NASCAR, the Sprint Cup Series, the XFINITY Series, and the Camping World Truck Series. The K&N Pro Series is split into two regions, the East and West, each crowns a separate champions. The K&N Pro Series East and West run 14 races each. Teams from both the East and West Series meet at Iowa Speedway on July 29 for a combination race.

William Byron won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East championship in 2015 by 13 points over runner-up Scott Heckert.

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series unveiled a new body for its teams’ cars in the East and West Series at the SEMA Show in 2014.

K&N has been the title sponsor of the Pro Series since 2010. But the history of both series dates back to the 1950s. The K&N Pro Series East started as the Busch North Series in 1987. The K&N Pro Series West was the Pacific Coast Late Models when it started in 1954. K&N announced in 2015 that it will be the title sponsor of the Pro Series East and West until 2021.

“K&N has been incredibly pleased with our sponsorship of the Pro Series over the past six years. We couldn’t have joined the NASCAR family at a better time, as we’ve seen the series grow in popularity each season,” said Caitlin Clement, K&N Track and Series Support Manager. “It’s amazing to see what the recent K&N Pro Series alumni have been able to do in the NASCAR National series in such a short amount of time and we’re seeing a whole new wave of extremely talented drivers this season who are undoubtedly on the path to stardom, as well. We’re excited to have the opportunity to be a part of the series for another six years and we’d like to thank NASCAR and all the teams for everything they’ve done and will do for the K&N brand.”

Chris Eggleston won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West championship in 2015. He won two races, at Irwindale Speedway and Shasta Speedway, during his championship season.

Bill McAnally, left, owner of Bill McAnally Racing, and Chris Eggleston won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West championship in 2015. It was the sixth time McAnally won the K&N Pro Series West title as a team owner.

Bill McAnally, who owns Bill McAnally Racing in the K&N Pro Series West, said having the support of K&N brings credibility to the series.

“We had several sponsors. Year after year we were changing sponsors,” McAnally said. “It’s great to have found a partner in K&N that’s found a home and has been involved in the series, continues to be involved with the series, it brings credibility to the K&N Series.”

The cars the teams use in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series are similar to the Generation 4 Sprint Cup cars used from 1992-2006. The K&N Pro Series cars produce 625 horsepower at 8,000 RPMs. For reference, the current NASCAR XFINITY Series cars produce 650 horsepower at 8,200 RPMs and the Sprint Cup cars of today produce 850 horsepower at 9,000 RPMs.

Todd Gilliland became the youngest driver to win a NASCAR K&N Pro Series West race in Phoenix in November. He was 15 years, six months when he won the race at Phoenix.

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series visits some of the same tracks as the Sprint Cup and XFINITY Series teams. The K&N Pro Series East teams race at Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee, Watkins Glen International Raceway in New York, and Dover International Speedway in Delaware. The K&N Pro Series West visits Sonoma Raceway in California. The Pro Series West teams have also raced at Phoenix International Raceway and Auto Club Speedway in California in the past. The K&N Pro Series visits several markets that the NASCAR national series doesn’t. It benefits both the K&N customers and NASCAR fans.

“It puts us in a lot of markets that don’t get any other NASCAR exposure,” McAnally said. “When we go to Denver or Salt Lake or Portland or Seattle, it’s a big deal. It tours NASCAR into some hungry markets. It adds a lot to our series.”

Todd Gilliland won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West race at Phoenix International Raceway in November. It was his first start in the K&N Pro Series West.

Ryan Truex won the first K&N Pro Series East championship in 2010. He repeated as the East Series champion and moved on to the XFINITY Series. William Byron won the K&N Pro Series East championship in 2015. Kyle Larson, who drives the No. 42 Chevrolet for Chip Ganassi Racing in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, won the K&N Pro Series East championship and was the rookie of the year in 2012.

Eric Holmes won the first K&N Pro Series West championship in 2010. It was his third West Series title. Greg Pursley won two K&N Pro Series West championships, he first was in 2011 and the second came in 2014. Dylan Kwasniewski won the K&N Pro Series West championship in 2012 and the K&N Pro Series East championship in 2013.

Whether your Dodge or Chrysler has an economical V6, or a thundering Hemi-powered V8, the K&N cabin air filter helps keep the air you breathe clean.

The air coming into the cabin of your car is as important as the air going into your engine, right? Most would say it is, however, it is easy to overlook the filter for this air. K&N cabin air filter VF3007 ensures the air coming in through the vents is clean. Swapping out the old filter for a K&N replacement is easy and a great way to clear the air.

Keeping your K&N cabin air filter clean and ready to rock is easy with the cabin filter refresher kit.

A dirty cabin air filter reduces the amount of airflow into the cabin of your vehicle. An excessively dirty filter can cause undue wear and tear on your HVAC system. This could lead to costly repairs. Dust can then work its way into your cabin and damage electronics and other, expensive, components. The K&N cabin air filter helps catch bacteria, mold, mildew, spores, and other allergens and nastiness that can get pulled in to your vents. Each filter is electrostatically charged, which helps to hold onto any particles that it collects. Installation is pretty easy and quick. In 6 easy steps, you can upgrade your paper cabin air filter to one from K&N. Helping you breathe better air and protecting your vehicle’s components.

Making the switch to the K&N filter gives you the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’re doing the best for your passengers. When it comes time to clean the filter (usually every year or every 12,000 miles depending on conditions), simply remove it, and clean it using a K&N refresher kit. You then snap it back in and head on down the highway. The filter is backed by a 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty, so you may never have to worry about buying a new one for that vehicle again.

You will be happy to know, however, that the K&N VF3007 cabin air filter will still let in the sweet smell of burnt rubber that comes from driving a Hemi-powered Challenger, Charger, Magnum or 300 (and even if you’re driving one of the V6 models). Don’t forget to let that engine breath better too, with a K&N engine air filter. Your buddies will need to get a K&N cabin air filter of their own, after you leave them in your dust.

Inside the box, you’ll find the pre-charged, ready to install filter, installation details, and warranty info.

The K&N VF2045 Cabin Air Filter helps stop odors and restores interior air quality

In the world of luxury cars, Lexus is often favored by practical people. They convey a sense of inherent quality, which gives you the confidence to spend the money since "you know it'll last". Aside from this "Toyota-ness", there are many other reasons to love a Lexus, including the effortless performance, the Egyptian pyramid build quality, and the long list of luxury accouterments. One of these pampering features is the cabin filtration system, which is designed to filter out the dust, dirt, odors, and allergens that happen to be swirling around your car. This is a surprisingly important part of the luxury experience, and if you ignore changing the cabin air filter regularly, your Lexus will start to smell a little like the inside of an Egyptian pyramid too.

Thanks to its reusable synthetic material, the K&N VF2045 Cabin Air Filter is warrantied with a 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty

The OEM Lexus cabin air filter is made from a thick folded paper that keeps airborne contaminants from ever reaching the air vents. When the heated/cooled air reaches the filter, any dirt that it contains will come to rest on the filter's surface. The problem with this design, is that dirt will eventually buildup and clog the filter, significantly reducing the amount of air that can flow through it. Once this happens, those contaminants will start blending with the air, giving it a stale, musty smell. Your allergies may also get worse, as the accumulated pollen starts to invade the cabin air. To keep all of that from happening, you need to change that (expensive) Lexus cabin filter often. Or you could improve both the HVAC system efficiency and the air quality, by installing a reusable K&N VF2045 cabin air filter.

Unlike that OE cabin air filter found in the 2001-2005 Lexus GS300, 2001-2005 Lexus GS430, 2001-2006 Lexus LS430, and 2002-2010 Lexus SC430, the K&N VF2045 cabin air filter is made from a special synthetic material that traps dirt particles deep inside a web of fibers, instead of on the surface. The filter also has an electrostatic charge to keep the contaminants in place, which allows air to continue to flow through as the dirt builds up. This filter media is more effective at removing dirt, dust, pollen, mold, spores, fungus, mildew, bacteria, germs, and other allergens. Then you simply clean your K&N cabin filter using the K&N Cabin Air Filter Refresh Kit.

Thanks to its innovative design and rugged build quality, the K&N VF2045 cabin air filter will likely be the last cabin filter that you need to buy. It's also covered by the K&N 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty, which you certainly don't get from a disposable filter. In addition to improving the performance of your climate control system, K&N has an entire range of engine air filters that can increase the performance of your entire vehicle, To find out more, enter your specific year/make/model into the Search by Vehicle Tool.

Reduce odors and allergens in your truck with a K&N VF2044 Cabin Air Filter

In the automotive world, full size trucks and SUVs are extremely profitable because they can share the same cheap-to-make ladder frame, suspension, and drivetrain. That allows GM to use the same basic recipe to make vehicles like the 2014-2015 Chevy Silverado, Tahoe, Suburban, the 2014-2015 GMC Sierra, Sierra HD, Yukon, Yukon Denali, and the 2015 Cadillac Escalade. One of the many components these trucks share is the cabin filtration system, which uses a thick paper filter to keep contaminants like dust and mold from entering the cabin through the HVAC system. These filtered climate control systems can make life a lot more pleasant for allergy sufferers. But if you don't change your OEM cabin air filter often, your allergies could actually get a whole lot worse.

The K&N VF2044 Cabin Air Filter works on the 2014-2015 Chevy Silverado, Tahoe, Suburban, the 2014-2015 GMC Sierra, Sierra HD, Yukon, Yukon Denali, and the 2015 Cadillac Escalade

A GM cabin filtration system utilizes a paper cabin air filter that lives in a special compartment located behind the glovebox. Before the heated or cooled air is blown through the vents, it's forced through the OEM cabin air filter to remove dust, dirt, and other contaminants. The problem is, once the dirt starts to buildup, airflow will gradually become more restricted. Some of those contaminants can also get pushed through and around the clogged filter and into the cabin, resulting in stuffy air, and worsening allergy symptoms.

To keep all of that from happening, the K&N VF2044 cabin air filter is made from a synthetic material that's been electrostatically charged to hold dirt in place. As air flows through the filter, contaminants and allergen particles get trapped inside the synthetic fibers, where they'll remain until you clean it. This design helps to keep airflow from becoming restricted as dirt builds up inside the filter. It's also more effective at filtering out dirt, dust, pollen, mold spores, fungus, mildew, bacteria, germs, and other allergens. Then every 12-months or 12,000 miles (depending on road conditions), you can simply clean your K&N cabin filter using the K&N Cabin Air Filter Refresh Kit. You can even clean it more often if you want.

OEM cabin air filters are disposable, less efficient, and fairly expensive to buy every year. The reusable K&N VF2044 cabin air filter on the other hand, may very well be the last cabin filter that you have to buy for your car. It's also covered by the K&N 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty, so the performance is guaranteed. Plus, K&N makes an entire range of performance parts, designed to help you get even more out of your Chevrolet or GMC truck or SUV.
