D3 Consulting, a recognized global leader in racing filtration and lubrication, announced this week that it would attend and support its OEM customers at the 31st Annual Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals on Aug. 16-19 at Brainerd Int’l Raceway (BIR), Brainerd, MN.

Bloomington, MN -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/15/2012 -- The National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) is a drag racing governing body, which sets rules in drag racing and host events all over the United States and Canada. With over 80,000 drivers in its rosters, the NHRA is considered one of the largest motorsports sanctioning bodies in the world.

The association was founded by Wally Parks in 1951 in the State of California to provide a governing body to organize and promote the sport of drag racing. The first nationwide NHRA sponsored event was held in 1955, in Great Bend, Kansas. The "Nationals", which now comprise 22 events each year, are the premier events in drag racing that bring together the best cars and drivers from across North America.

NHRA racing at BIR is a popular stop due to the area's recreational opportunities. Racers often get their early and spend the days before the event trolling the area's many lakes for walleye, bass, and northern pike, and a huge on-site campground provides nightly camaraderie discussing the day's action. A 700-foot concrete launch pad, one of the longest on the tour, helps boost performances at the second to last event at which teams can secure positions for the NHRA Countdown playoffs.

D3 Consulting, a global adviser in lubricants and filtration for combustion engines, announced this week that it would attend Southern California Timing Association’s Bonneville Speed Week at the Bonneville Salts Flats near Wendover, Utah on Aug 11-17.

Bloomington, MN -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/06/2012 -- The salt flats were first used for timed motor sports in 1912, but didn't become truly popular until the 1930s when Ab Jenkins from the U.S. and Sir Malcolm Campbell from Great Britain competed to set land speed records.

Historically, the speedway was marked out by the Utah Department of Transportation at the start of each summer. Originally, two tracks were prepared; a 10 mile long straightway for speed trials and an oval or circular track for distance runs, which was typically between 10 and 12 miles long depending on the condition of the salt surface.

Since at least the 1990s, track preparations have been the responsibility of the event organizers. Days or weeks in advance, the track preparers identify an area best suited for their track layouts and begin grading the tracks. Surveyors are brought in to survey the timing trap distances. A day before racing begins, the track markers are added.

The number of tracks and the timed sections for each track are set according to what is most beneficial for each event. Large public meets such as Speed Week run as many as four tracks with several timed miles, usually starting with the second mile and running to the fifth mile. Smaller meets that typically only run world record attempts will utilize a single track, with one timed mile and one timed kilometer in the middle of the track. Additional marks and cones indicate the end of the track and the position of timing equipment.

In August, the Southern California Timing Association and Bonneville Nationals Inc. organize Speed Week, the largest meet of the year, which attracts several hundred drivers who compete to set highest speed in a range of categories.

Products in aftermarket secondary filtration (By-Pass Filters) provide benefits for nearly every type of commercial engine application and at the October SAE Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress; Karl Dedolph, President of D3 Consulting, will lead a panel discussion on the “Technological Advancements in Secondary Filtration Devices”.

Bloomington, MN -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/02/2012 -- The SAE Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress (ComVec) is the source for information and resources to aid in the development of these innovations.

By-Pass Oil Filters provide improved filtration protection against wear and oil degradation. Working in conjunction with the engine's full-flow oil filter, By-Pass Filters operate by filtering oil on a "partial-flow" basis. These typically remote-mounted secondary filters draw a small percentage of the oil sump's capacity and trap extremely small, wear-causing contaminants that full-flow oil filters can't remove.

The By-Pass Filter typically filters the oil in the system several times an hour and the benefits to commercial engines are typically; extended drain intervals, improved cooling, increased oil capacity and life, small particle and soot removal, extended engine life, and maintenance and disposal cost reductions.

International AERO Products announced today their new product SHIELD, a 2-part paint protectant. SHIELD is a catalyzed, co-polymer that chemically binds to painted surfaces to create a deep, luscious shine, while also protecting painted surfaces for up to two years. The easy to apply protectant has been a detailing staple of sister company, International AERO Services, which has been cleaning multi-million dollar private aircraft for years.

Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/21/2012 -- "AERO SHIELD was derived from the same catalyzed protection that we have been applying to large-cabin private jets for many years, and will provide the same long-lasting protection for exterior painted surfaces on your car," says Jonathan Saltman, President and CEO of International AERO. "The product has been applied by AERO technicians on every new jet delivered from one of the premier private jet manufactures for years, and the results speak for themselves. The handy burst-pack makes mixing simple, and the application is as easy as applying less durable waxes that won't last nearly as long as AERO SHIELD."

The application of SHIELD is a short and easy process that does not require buffers or other equipment to get premium results. After activating SHIELD when breaking the burst pack, simply apply small amounts to the included applicator, and work in a circular motion. Let the product sit for 30 minutes, and remove the excess with a plush microfiber towel. For best results, maintain the painted surface with AERO SHINE to keep the paint's unsurpassed luster, shine and protection.

Minneapolis based D3 Consulting, specialists in the lubrication aftermarket, supports the awareness of Earth Day on which events are held worldwide to increase appreciation of the Earth's natural environment.

Bloomington, MN -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/12/2012 -- The name and concept of Earth Day was allegedly pioneered in San Francisco, the City of Saint Francis, patron saint of ecology, in 1970. Earth Day is now coordinated globally and is celebrated in more than 175 countries every year and led to the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. And in 2009, the United Nations designated April 22 as International Mother Earth Day.

D3 Consulting's focus on Earth Day brings attention to synthetic oil technologies sold in the U.S. that are capable of extended automotive drain intervals. Synthetic oils raise the quality standard and extend the normally 3,000-mile drain interval without compromising engine durability or sacrificing performance. Europe is already at a minimum of 10,000-mile drain intervals and has been using synthetics for decades. The use of synthetic oil brings many benefits to the environment and also directly to the consumer.
