Andrew Ranger is looking forward to the new challenge of the Avion RS1 Cup Series. “The Avion group approached me at the beginning of the year and asked me to take a look at the series. When I did my research, I liked very much what I saw. They have a very competitive group; some talented drivers and I’m really looking forward to getting behind the wheel of these RS1 cars” said Ranger.
Avion Motorsports is thrilled to have a driver of Ranger’s experience and caliber join them for 2021.
