Canadian Andrew Ranger will be back in the ARCA series this weekend to try to repeat his win of last year on the 2.25-mile Thunderbolt Raceway road course in New Jersey.
Last year, Ranger won one of the most memorable and exciting road races in ARCA history.
"It's something I've always been very proud of, winning in my first ARCA start," Ranger said. "I'm just so proud to be back with the same team and the same car. New Jersey's such a great track, a lot of fun."
Last year, Ranger overcame a string of challenges to capture the top spot on the Victory Lane podium, including a blown engine late in the final practice and having to start the race from the back of the pack as a result.
The Roxton Pond, Quebec native made two additional starts in the ARCA Racing Series in 2011, finishing fifth at both Chicagoland Speedway and the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds dirt mile.
ARCA Racing Series teams will practice twice Saturday at New Jersey Motorsports Park's Thunderbolt Raceway with Menards Pole Qualifying at 4:30 (ET). The 67-lap, 150-mile race will start at 1 p.m. Sunday.
