Hartford, OH……Dunn-Olivieri had a strange thing happen on Saturday night,it marked the first time in 2008 that the team made consecutive visits to track and the track would be Sharon Speedway. Looking to improve on last weeks third place finish the team was able to finish one spot higher this week with a second place finish.

A total of twenty-two E-Mods were on hand with two eleven car eight lap heat races to set the field for the feature . Starting seventh in the first heat race, Russ finished third making him eligible for the redraw.The redraw was an invert four giving Dunn the fourth starting position for the 15 lap feature.Two caution on the first lap slowed the place, with Dunn advancing one spot to third. A caution on lap five had Dunn falling back to fifth but he was back to third on a caution on lap eight. Seven lap of green flag saw Dunn using the higgh side to move into second and set his sights on the leader. Cutting into the lead lap after lap Dunn was able to close to four car lengths as the white flag was displayed. A caution came out for a spinning car and set up a one lap dash to the finish. With his tires cooling off Dunn tried on the restart, but as the checkers flew it was a second place.

It will be three visits in a row as Dunn-Olivieri will once again make the tow over to the Sharon power plant for Tuesday’s August 12th NASCAR Night Duel in the Dirt II as the E-Mod driver will take on Dave & Dale Blaney and NASCAR stars Kevin Harvick and Ken Schrader.
