Pareto Point Industries (PPI) announces TopDog V, a patent pending parallel flow oil bypass filtration system. According to Adan Reinosa, P.E., PPI’s President, “The incredible benefits of oil bypass filtration, which result in better performing, cleaner running engines, has been known for many years. But consumers and many fleet owners have had to consider the high product cost and installation complexity, so it never really caught on. TopDog V is a game changer. It provides vehicle owners with bypass filtration to 2 microns, absolute, and even more benefits, at a low price and with easy, fast installation. In fact, using only a ratchet, the TopDog V ‘system/adapter’ (the red puck) can be installed in a few minutes. TopDog V fits vehicles, equipment, or machinery requiring lubricating oil that use a spin-on oil filter; and we are developing a canister filter application.” (more…)

Rock event to date,” stated Rich Klein, race promoter. “When the rain started pouring on Saturday night and the spectators disappeared we thought we had seen the last of them, but as the rain lifted and the events continued, they all returned until it was completely over, which was about 3am with the delay. It was awesome!” (more…)

“The courses were insane, we beat ourselves and our rigs up,” stated competitor Matt Messer from Trail Gear who took his first ever Unlimited class win. Drivers competed on some of the hardest natural terrain courses this location has ever seen and there was plenty of rollover action, which is typical for Donner with the amount of ledges, drop-offs and amazing rocky formations. “We really had a lot of fun putting these courses together, they were really technical and focused on the drivers skills,” said Rich Klein, event promoter.
