Munroe Falls, OH – The Ruman Racing sisters will be back in action this coming weekend, both driving in the SCCA Double National at Watkins Glen International, NY. The two will compete on the Watkins Glen 3.4-mile “long course,” where Amy Ruman still holds the GT-1 track record at 1:52.460 seconds set in July of 2010.
Last year at the Glen Double Nationals, Amy Ruman scored back to back GT-1 wins and will be trying to score her third & fourth GT-1 wins of the season in this weekend’s races driving the #23 McNichols Co./Goodyear/Cenweld Chevrolet Corvette. “I’m hoping to defend my wins here from last year,” remarked Ruman. “This is one of my favorite tracks to race and the #23 has been strong this year.”
Coming off her 2nd place finish at the SCCA Summit Point, WV National in May, Niki Ruman will be climbing back in the cockpit driving her #23 McNichols Co./Dynasty Motorsports Spec Racer in her second race of the season. “The Glen races always have full SRF fields with lots of competition, so I am looking forward running these races,” commented Ruman.
The sisters will hit the track with two qualifiers on Friday, qualify and race on Saturday, and qualify and race again on Sunday. Amy will be in Group 2 and Niki in Group 6.
