Craig Dollansky and the Big Game Treestands #7 team opened up the month of August on Friday at Bloomington Speedway as the World of Outlaws returned to the 1/4-mile for the first time since 1999.

With 27 cars signed into the pit area Dollansky piloted the Karavan Trailers Maxim to the 8th quickest time at 9.888 seconds.  With the top twelve inverted in three heat races the Aggressive Hydraulics #7 started on the outside pole of heat race two and jumped out to the lead and took the victory to secure a spot in the dash.  In the 6-lap dash Dollansky started eighth and finished 8th.

In the 40-lap A-Main 'The Crowd Pleaser' started outside of row four.  As the main event got underway the Eaton's Aeroquip Performance Products #7 lost a couple positions and ran tenth by a caution on lap 10.  As racing resumed Dollansky would hover around the top ten until a caution came on the final lap as Dollansky ran eleventh.  A green-white-checkered restart would see Dollansky race past two cars and secure a top ten finish by crossing the line in 9th.

The Big Game Treestands #7 team returns to action on Saturday for the longest race of the season, the 55-lap Ironman 55 at I-55 Raceway just south of St. Louis.
