Reaume Brothers Racing has announced that Angela Ruch will join the organization for the full 2020 NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series season. Ruch will pilot the No. 00 beginning with the season-opener at Daytona next month.
36-year old Ruch made her NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series debut back in 2010 at Martinsville Speedway, finishing 30th in her debut.
She would not return to the Truck Series until last season when she made a total of ten starts. The first starts of 2019 came in the No. 8 for Joe Nemechek with the following eight coming in the No. 44 for Niece Motorsports.
In ten series starts last season, Ruch’s best finish was eight in the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway. Overall, she tallied up one top-10, three top-20 and five top-25 finishes.
Reaume Brothers Racing began racing in 1997 when John Reaume got his son’s Jonathan and Josh into competitive kart racing.
In 2018, the team expanded to a full-time effort in the Truck Series and haven’t looked back since.
Multiple drivers have made starts in both the No. 33 and No. 34 for Reaume Brothers Racing including Josh Reaume, Josh Bilicki, Ryan Sieg, CJ McLaughlin and Jesse Iwuji to name a few.
In 2019, Josh Reaume himself made 13 starts for the team over the course of the season splitting time between both the No. 33 and No. 34.
His best finish in that time span was a sixth-place finish in the season-opener at Daytona. Overall, he would tally up one top-10, two top-15, and five top-20 finishes.
Additional details and a crew chief have yet to be announced for Ruch, we will update this story as the information becomes available.
