Tucker, Boardwalk Ferrari Level 5 Motorsports Focused On Two Checkered Flags at Watkins Glen

After several weeks of intense points racing in the American Le Mans Series, Scott Tucker is looking forward to this weekend's Ferrari Challenge Series event at Watkins Glen International with only one thing in mind -- winning.

Tucker and the No. 55 Boardwalk Ferrari Level 5 Motorsports team have posted a victory in every Ferrari Challenge Series race weekend in which they have participated in 2010. They will look to continue that trend this weekend in western New York at a track where Tucker has found success. In the 2009 GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series, Tucker and teammate Christophe Bouchut raced to Level 5 Motorsports' first podium finish there.

"Watkins Glen is a great place to race with a lot of history to it," Tucker said. "We're looking forward to going back there and adding our name to a prestigious list of winners at the track with a couple of strong runs."

Tucker and the Boardwalk Ferrari Level 5 Motorsports team tested at Watkins Glen in July between races in an already hectic racing schedule. The team was happy with the results of the test and expect to transfer those learnings to the race this weekend.

"We're pleased with the results of the test and we'll be well prepared when we get to The Glen," said Boardwalk Ferrari Level 5 Motorsports Team Manager David Stone. "Scott knows his way around the place, so we know he will be ready. The short course at Watkins Glen is very car dependent, so it's up to us to give him the car he needs to get to victory lane."

Tucker has won Ferrari Challenge Series races at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Miller Motorsports Park, Infineon Raceway and New Jersey Motorsports Park in 2010 and currently sits in a tie for second-place in the series point standings despite missing the Series' events in Montreal.

Qualifying for Race No. 1 at Watkins Glen is set for Saturday at 11:10 a.m. The green flag is scheduled to wave at 1 p.m. Qualifying for Race No. 2 is set for 11:10 a.m. Sunday, with the green flag scheduled for 1 p.m.
