 On Saturday night, Brian was once again in Rossburg , Ohio to compete in the Sunoco American Late Model Series (ALMS) and the UMP Modified events at Eldora Speedway.  Brian pilots the #11 late model owned by Lawrence Motorsports for all ALMS events and the #20 modified owned by Chuck Sanning.  Brian was 15^th fastest qualifier out of the 50+ late models present.  Brian finished 2^nd in his heat behind Bob Lanter.  Brian fought to get to the front during the feature, but ended with a 5^th place finish.  In the Modified division, Brian won his heat and finished 2^nd to Scott Orr.

 Next weekend, April 22 and 23 will find Brian once again at I-96 on Friday night with his #49 late model and then back to Eldora for a modified race in the #20 owned by Chuck Sanning.  For more information on Brian Ruhlman, visit his website at www.brianruhlmanracing.com or contact him at brianruhlmanracing@yahoo.com.
