Earnhardt Jr. revealed that Elliott once persuaded NASCAR to invite famous gymnast Olivia Dunne to a race. He quoted Elliott saying, "I think she's cool. I love to meet her [Olivia Dunne] and I think it would be great for NASCAR, if you invited her to come to the track." This move not only allowed Elliott to meet Dunne but also introduced NASCAR to her fanbase.
