Sadler returns with Armour Vienna Sausages onboard:

Elliott Sadler and the No. 2 Armour Vienna Sausage team roll into Darlington Raceway following a weekend off for the Truck Series. The first stand-alone event of the season sees the No. 2 Kevin Harvick Inc. (KHI) team with two solid second-place finishes thus far in 2011. Sadler returns to the seat of the No. 2 Chevrolet Silverado for the second time in 2011 after a narrow loss to Michael Waltrip in the series season opener at Daytona International Raceway. Pinnacles Foods and the Armour brand are a long-time sponsor of Kevin Harvick and the Kevin Harvick Inc. team. Since becoming a primary sponsor in 2009, the black, blue and gold Armour colors have never lost a race, going to victory lane for the first time with KHI co-owner Harvick as he earned his first win driving a KHI-owned vehicle at Bristol Motor Speedway, followed by wins at Nashville Superspeedway and Richmond International Raceway in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. At the end of last season Armour was on board with four-time Truck Series champion Ron Hornaday and found victory lane once again as the Truck Series veteran won for the first time at Martinsville Speedway after 16 attempts.(Kevin Harvick Inc.
