I'm not about to get into a pixxing match with another owner on this site, but assuming that the writer is actually who he is, I do have the following statement:

First of all, when I come to the race track I have never punched out a USAC official or shoved a reporter, threw a helmet at a fellow car owner or driver and nor have I ever told a race track audience over a public address system that has come to see my car race to "kiss my ###." Furthermore, I bring legal cars to race tracks that conform to the published rules.

Secondly, there are two issues that were at hand in the past two years of racing at Fort Wayne. Tires and a tail tank. You knowingly brought tires to Fort Wayne last year that, according to the promoter, were given to you by Hoosier. Don Kenyon told me that I can't buy the tires that you had on your car. I personally saw the tires myself on your race car and they were nothing like what everyone else had and BTW, the rest of us followed the rules and bought the official tires from Don Kenyon. You made a choice and it was a bad choice. You got caught the second day of last year's racing. You knowingly raced against the rest of us with illegal tires. The promoter allowed you to win on illegal tires. Be thankful on your part that he allowed it despite ignoring the published rules that the rest of us abided by.

Now let me address the tail tank. The Rumble is governed by the tech rules that the United States Auto Club publishes yearly. I have read the current rules and the square tail tank is illegal. Allegedly you were telling those who listened that the tank was legal. Despite it being illegal according the rules, the promoter allowed you race with it. Another free pass for you. Be thankful again that you weren't disqualified. That's two free passes now that the rest of us have never had from the promoter at Fort Wayne.

Finally, your claim that I am protesting the tires, tail tank and other items on your car is totally false. Prior to the promoter asking you to remove the illegal tires, I had no discussions with the promoter nor did claim any protest about your tires or any other part on your car prior to him asking you to remove them. Also any claim that I protested your tail tank is also false. I had no discussion with the promoter about your tail tank during the race meet at Fort Wayne nor did I have any other discussion or protests about your car or parts of your car with the promoter at Fort Wayne this year or last year. You have the promoter's phone number. Please call him and ask him if my statement on this site is true.

I don't know who is telling you that I'm complaining about your car but they are giving you totally false information. But the facts are that you knowingly have showed up at Fort Wayne with tires and parts that are illegal according to the published rules. You received two free passes from the promoter that the rest of us have never had.

Thanks!

Don Moore
