Sad news
 
Just saw a post on Facebook that Roger Rager passed away unexpectedly on Feb. 16. A successful, fiercely independent driver who made the most out odd a little and did so on his terms. May he Race in Peace!

Originally from Mound Minnesota or at least that's where he hailed from in the 70s. 1975 Knoxville track champion.

Didn't he show up (with a sprint car) in FL this time of year like 12years ago or so and run GOOD down there still too?

Not sure how many years ago it was, but I was at East Bay and Roger drove the wheels off the car every lap each night. Unlike others who are spectacular, he always seemed calm and under control.
