Attention ALL Midget Car Owners

The Rumble Series has had numerous questions in regard to drivers wanting to enter Ft. Wayne, but are looking for a ride. Last year I had a Busch Series regular call looking for a good ride, and this year we have an Indy Car Series driver that is interested in running. Many sprint and midget regulars have asked about rides.

It would be good to know of car owners that may be interested in talking about fielding a car for the event coming up December 28, and 29. You may have noticed a few drivers who have posted online about open rides.

Kenyon Cars, Ford Focus and full midgets are allowed to run this special event. USAC membership not required. Older midgets have really done well in Ft. Wayne. We have had a couple older cars sell at Ft. Wayne because it opens up a market for them to once again compete.

When drivers call, this year maybe we will have a few more answers.

Ed Carpenter maybe? I've heard him say he was interested in sprints and midgets in the IndyCar off season.

I have THREE cars available for these tourist attraction drivers. $10,000-20,000 rental for each car for the two nights. All three come with a special loge, limo service, catering, Pinkerton security guards and deluxe bank roping for ur pit. This won't last. Hurry.

Now that is funny. If you were to luck into getting Erin to drive for you I will personally volunteer, no wait, I will pay to be one of her guards. It would be worth filing bankruptcy to have that job. :kookoo2:

Don,

What if they are not so much of a "tourist attraction", but are simply looking to race? I have had guys like Caleb Griffith...many years ago keep asking on our forum about rides... no one responded...and now I see he is making a name for himself as a driver at Fremont.

I have a list of drivers who would not fall into the category you mentioned, but are ready to run. This is mostly about them, plus it is interesting to know where a few cars gathering dust may be pressed into action.

The Munchkin was pulled out of the back of a garage, dusted off, and won even after needing an engine overhaul a few years ago.

Uh oh...I brought that up again.....
