The Ft. Wayne Rumble is an outlaw show and you don't have to be a USAC or QMA member to run. Yes it cost more to run the Rumble and have to pay for pitpass at the Rumble because of the big cars being there and its all insurance purposes only. Its a once a year deal when you can race and pit with the big boys. The best part is when you have several of the big boys walking through your pits or like Dave Darland pitted in your pits and talking to your kids. The best part is that your kids through out the night can go up and talk to the midget drivers and never get turned away its great. As for me the best part is when your walking through the midget pits all the drivers and crew members make you feel welcome and one time I was talking to Mel and next thing I know he hands me some tools and put me to work on his midget. As for Tony Stewart my driver was talking to him several years ago and loving every bit of it and then later on that night Tony wins and was walking off the track picks Starla up and goes sets down with her and signs his trophy and gives it to her. So all and all was it worth the extra money to race "YES" did my kid love it yes and ready to go every year. Also it not all about the midgets your there talking to and watching several different kinds of racing such as the 600 mini sprints, Cage kart along with the karts.

Now if your wanting to know about where the tracks are for the quarter midgets here's a website that will tell you everything from the cost and what you need to go racing.
