Midget Rental Rides???

Copperhead · 2/7/11, 4:06 PM

I might be interested in single-event midget rentals at some point this season. I was wondering if any team owners out there that rent rides for individual races could give me some information about their programs as far as rental fees, damage policies, etc. I won the UMRA TQ Midget Rookie of the Year title last season, and may be running a partial schedule with them again while working on putting a motor in my sprint roller. I've got several irons in the fire and not much funding, but I'd like some seat time in a full midget, so let me hear what you've got.

Thanks,

Scotty Orme

Contact AJ Felker at 812-989-7050

He rents migets out. He is located in southern Indiana. He has good cars and they run up front.

Granted I am a little bias.. but I would call Benic Enterprises.
We took 3 midgets to the chili bowl, 2 of them made the A Main, the other won the C and failed to transfer out of the B.
In 2009 Scott was the crew chief for the USAC National Midget Champions, and has a reputation for putting fast, reliable cars on the race track!

I'd go with AJ Felker. He knows his stuff. You might also talk with him about motor's. His shop makes horsepower for all forms of motorsports.

Aj has always made me fast when I've set in one of the black 37 cars. The guy is pretty damn sharp.
