"The Rumble" Hits the Fort

Written By: Matt "Night" Rider
FORT WAYNE, IN- Fort Wayne will be rocking this weekend (December 26-27th) when the midgets do battle in the War Memorial Coliseum, in the "Rumble in Fort Wayne."

"The Rumble in Fort Wayne" is two days chalked full of racing. On the race bill will be winged outlaw midgets, midgets, JEGS quarter midgets MiniCup stock cars,  Jr. Sprints, and karts. The racers will be racing around a 1/6th mile concrete oval in the lower level of the Coliseum.

Racers including Ronnie Wuerdeman (Pictured Upper Left in Red #33) will put their talents on display in this two day racing jamboree. Sarah Fisher has entered her midget team in the Rumble this year, and will be on hand to take pictures and sign autographes in the Fan Zone Sunday, December 27th from 2-3 pm. Many well- known racers will be take part in the event, including 14 year old up and comer Kyle O'Gara. O'Gara is the younger brother of Fisher's husband Andy O'Gara. Kyle will be taking part in the event, as a member of Fisher's midget team.

Personally, this will be my first time covering the "Rumble in Fort Wayne." I am pumped up go see some of my good race friends take part in such an exciting racing weekend.  You can catch a full recap of the "Rumble in  Fort Wayne" on Monday or Tuesday. To all my Through the Gears fans, I wish each and everyone of you and your families a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years.
