Back in the saddle after battling through unforeseen challenges the previous night, Craig Dollansky and the Big Game Treestands #7 team wrapped up the sprint car portion of the 41st Annual UNOH DIRTcar Nationals in ‘The Sunshine State’ on Sunday with a little luck on their side instead.

With two complete programs scheduled due to Friday’s rainout, racing got underway in the early afternoon as 32 cars took the green flag for qualifying with Dollansky timing in 8th quick.  In the fourth heat the Aggressive Hydraulics Maxim started third and finished 4th to transfer into the main event.

After Mother Nature washed out Friday’s racing program just prior to the start of heat races, much better weather was on tap Saturday as the Big Game Treestands #7 team returned to Volusia Speedway Park for another attempt at the World of Outlaws season opener.

With 35 cars signed in for competition the night got off to a rough start as the Eaton’s Aeroquip Performance Products Maxim lost power prior to taking the green flag for qualifying.  In heat race action the track was still fairly narrow making passing difficult as Dollansky started ninth and finished 8th in the first heat.  The B-Main saw the MobileStar backed sprinter start inside of row seven and race up to 7th in the 12-lap event but wasn’t quite enough as the team was forced to use a provisional to start the main event.

Quick stats: 
FIELD: 35 CARS
QUALIFYING: no time (33rd)
HEAT RACE 1: 8th, start (9)
B-MAIN: 7th, start (13)
A-MAIN: 16th, start (25)
NOTES: broke camshaft before qualifying

Another run with the All Star Circuit of Champions was on tap Thursday for Craig Dollansky and the Big Game Treestands #7 team at Volusia Speedway Park in ‘The Sunshine State’ before attention shifts to three nights to open the 2012 World of Outlaws season.

Warm and sunny weather presented a great day for racing as qualifying kicked off the racing program with the Aggressive Hydraulics backed sprinter timing in 13th fastest among the 40 competitors signed in for action.  Starting from inside row two of the first heat race ‘The Crowd Pleaser’ used the high side of the track to capture the lead and cruise to the heat race win.

Quick stats: 
FIELD: 40 CARS
QUALIFYING: 13.422 (13th)
HEAT RACE 1: 1st, start (3)
