A favorite chronicler of vintage races, Tony Adriaensens of Corsa Research writes: 

When Ruth Levy hit Los Angeles in 1956, she did so with a bang! At the first Paramount Ranch meeting in August she took the chequered flag of the Ladies' Race 21 seconds ahead of Linda Scott. She entered Sunday's over-1500cc main (with the men) where she took 11th overall and first in class with her Porsche Speedster. Here Ruthie sits behind the wheel of John Edgar's Porsche 550 Spyder - again at Paramount Ranch, but this time in March 1957 - where she finished first overall in the Ladies' go.
