After getting a feel for the track in hotlaps, Dollansky piloted the Aggressive Hydraulics Maxim to the 16th fastest lap in qualifying at 13.775 seconds among the 32 drivers signed in for competition. Heat race action then put the Eaton’s Aeroquip Performance Products backed sprinter on the pole of heat four where the Elk River, Minnesota native took command leading all 8 circuits to earn a spot in the dash. Starting last in the 6-lap dash, outside row five, Dollansky had no place to go but forward as he raced past three cars and then battled with Paul McMahan for sixth but ultimately finished 7th.

Rose Returns to Action with a Trio of World of Outlaws Events
Inside Line Promotions – EL PASO, Texas (April 17, 2013) – With a unique brace and the urge to get behind the wheel, Bill Rose returned to action last weekend with the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series.
After missing the previous 10 races because of a broken left arm, Rose and his team pulled down a second car to join David Gravel in a pair of Bill Rose Racing entries beginning at Kings Speedway in Hanford, Calif., on Friday.
“Hanford was my test to see if I was going to be able to drive or not,” Rose said. “I can’t race without a brace on my arm, but the brace I’ve got makes it difficult to hold onto the steering wheel.”
Rose qualified 24th, which put him toward the back of his heat race. With passing at a premium, he was relegated to the Last Chance Showdown, where he finished one spot out of a transfer to the feature.
With only 21 cars each of the next two races – at Perris Auto Speedway in Perris, Calif., last Friday and at El Paso Speedway Park on Tuesday – Rose decided to start and park both events.
