Hartford,OH…. Making only their fourth appearance of the year at the Hartford power plant, Dunn-Olivieri Racing was looking for a quality run after a disappointing 6th place finish on their last visit. The team has been doing some traveling this year with visits to nine different with the only multiple visits to Raceway 7 and to Sharon .

A total of twenty two E-Mod took place in three heat races with Dunn racing in the first of the three heat races. No running for points Russ settled for a fourth place finish in the heat making him eligible for the fan redraw.The redraw gave Russ the outside pole for the 15 lap feature, and at the drop of the green flag he set sail until a eight car pile up on lap one took out a third of the field. On the restart Dunn once again was out front and pulling away from the field. Around lap six the left rear shock broke causing the car to slam down hard entering the corners, he was able to maintain his lead until lap 10. On the restart ,Russ had his hands full with an ill handling race car. and was forced to let off causing him to loose the lead and drop back two spots to third and that is where he finished as the checkers flew.

Tentative plans are to visit Sharon twice in a few days span for regular racing on August 9th and then again on August 12th as part of NASCAR Night II when drivers Kevin Harvick, Ken Schrader and track owner Dave Blaney will take part in this special E-Mod race.
