Definitely will be back, love the Rumble, always a good time to get with friends that you don't usually get to see during the offseason, and usually seeing some pretty good racing, in which we saw this weekend.

Keep up the good work Tony.
I kinda figured the Officer needs assistance went out and Everybody responded. I don't know if there was anyone there threatening anyone. Didn't seem like it. People upset yes but I'll just chalk it up to STRANGEST EXPERIENCE AT A RACE TRACK to me

You have it correct Charles..a call went out, and many responded. I knew they were race fans when I saw that many stayed till the features were over.

i'm still mad at myself and usac for not sticking around at that Union county deal. as far as the rumble goes looks like a whole lot of effort goes into putting that show on. great job by Tony and who ever else has to organize and score all those cars. had plans and didn't make this year but had about 24 hours of coverage on the ppv for those interested at the house.
Thanks again Tony.....

This thread is upsetting because I know my officials and myself are striving to do their best. I am remaining focused in on post event notes to improve even more.

I do know that I am very proud of all our event officials, and I feel I have some of the best in the open wheel business.

Lets all review how we can improve in 2011. I also want to wish USAC officials, drivers and all sanctioning bodies the best in 2011.

I also want to wish race fans of every stripe a fantastic 2011.

Thanks to all that attended the Rumble In Fort Wayne.

Tony Barhorst and Sandy Lowe are two of the hardest working people I know in racing. We need more like you. Keep up the good work. You can't please everyone.

Larry Boos from Eldora is the race director. One way we will improve next year is to have our announcer with a headset to the track officials. They just didn't have one this year. We need to explain whats going on with our different spin rule. Once again, we have the modified spin rule to cut down on rough driving.
