Rest in peace. I used to love watching him on Wed., Thurs., Saturday night Thunder. We were just in Salem Saturday on our way to West Baden and I stopped by the speedway to show my wife.

I never saw a driver that wanted to win every race he was ever in, more than Rich did. And I probably never will. R.I.P.

He's the last racer I watched, who I knew would be the show. You knew he was the man to beat, anytime , anywhere. As long as there is a sprint car fan alive and kicking , who was fortunate enough to see him run, he won't be forgotten. RIP Rich.

No one ever drove a race car like Rich. It always makes me smile to find young fans who know all about him through dad's stories.

Tough day 24 years ago. Sure enjoyed watching
him race in Midgets- Sprints- Champ Dirt Cars. He was the best. So many memories of Vogler. If it was qualifying - heat races - feature he was determined to win! Best Regards, John |
