- Disaster for Delgado, Out of Contention Early
"There are two kinds of people in this world: Me, and idiots who cannot grasp the concept of patience!" Is all Tom Delgado would say after the Rockford 200 after falling out of contention early in an incident with Holden Roberts. He would finish 4 laps down, getting into several incidents after the handling on his #37 USA-themed Nemoto went astray. Delgado was disgusted by the lack of patience shown by Roberts, and made it very clear on his Twitter accout (@RealTomDelgado) what will happen the next time he makes an ARLA start and Roberts is in the field.
A disastrous final two months of the year for Tom Delgado saw him fall out of contention for the TM Master Cup Series Championship, and now a disastrous series of events tonight that knocked him out of contention for a good finish should make the 2-time Master Cup race winner even more aggressive and hungrier for victory in 2012. Delgado's history of punching people who he feels didn't do the right thing on the track should continue, and if I were Holden Roberts, I'd watch my back.

- By far the best finish of the year, congratulations to Schwarzloski on the win, and I believe celebrations are in order for Kevin Monroe! Another great season of ARLA racing. Can't wait to see the new car in action this year

- Recarmier ends season on high note
Rene Recarmier knew that the title was almost out of sight.So he decided to show why Majestic Motorsports hired him by finishing 6th in Rockford,ending up 5th in Points and just 13 points away from Rookie of the year.
"It very good season,first time in America and I get 5th!I think I could get used to this Stock Car this you guys have here.I think I could have good season at Majestic,but I say that we can celebrate now!"
When asked what Recarmier is planning to do during the off season,he had this to say:"No!Season not over Yet!Must catch plane to Decatur in 45 minute!Got to go,bye!"
His first and only season in ARLA saw him take 2 wins and 2 poles.Not bad for a French rookie

- Durbin Finishes Respectable Twelfth in ARLA Debut
After impressing by just getting in to the Rockford 200, Ike Durbin showed speed in the race, and finished 12th in his debut in ARLA. Very early in the race, he was spun by Jared Anderson, then was involved in an incident with Packer Carroll with ten to go. He described himself as a "human pinball" of the race, also including Dan Leckliter and Tom Delgado in the statement. He also congratulated M&J Racing on their win and championship. You won't see him in a full time ARLA car next year, however he will own the full time 86x, and will make various starts in the one-offs, including the Rockfod 200 next year.

- If the driver who won the championship won less than a quarter million dollars in the year, something has gone wrong.

Monroe celebrates title
After 11 seasons of consistently finishing towards the top of the standings, M&J Racing co-owner Kevin Monroe has finally captured his first ARLA Elite Series championship, giving ARLA's oldest team its 8th title, and third in the last 4 years.
Monroe celebrated his title with Rockford 200 race winner and teammate Edwin Schwarzloski. Monroe noted that Schwarzloski helped him cut through the field after the final restart.
Said Monroe, "I just followed Edwin after that last restart. I figured I could pick up the pieces after he shuffled everyone else out of line, and it worked out very nicely."
The title did not come easily for Monroe, as he was involved in multiple skirmishes during the night, one of which saw him wreck Jared Andersen coming back to the caution.
"The Zing Energy machine took a pounding, but whatever. I'm sorry about getting into the 9, but I'm not worried about being penalized. I was told I finished well enough to be safe if I get the usual amount of points taken away."
Riggs furious at Schwarzloski

Riggs furious at Schwarzloski
- Warning to sheltered children: Naughty language alert:
- Allie Riggs's radio communications after the Rockford 200 made it clear that she was livid with Edwin Schwarzloski after Schwarzloski made contact with her while passing her for the lead with 2 laps to go.
In case there were people still unaware of her feelings, Riggs climbed out of her car and offered her take on the final laps with reporters.
"He'd better get a goddamn penalty. Shwartloski, or whatever the fuck his name is, wasn't going to win the championship, but he's gotta drive like an asshole to everyone who is. Everyone loves him 'cause ooh, he's missing his arm, and he's such a generous guy, but he's an asshole behind the wheel."

- Troy Adams Comments on this
Watching as a spectator after failing to pre-qualify, Adams had this to say about Riggs' & her temper
'Come on. Are you serious?! That's hard racing & that stuff happens. Rubbin' is racin'. Just calm down. Unless Monroe was hit with a point penalty, you wouldn't have had a chance to win the championship. Congrats to both Schwarzloski for winning the race & Monroe on winning the title.'
He also said 'Is it just me, or are Riggs' tempers & fits getting old, annoying & stupid? I'm really starting to get sick of them & her. I mean, it's ridiculous. Once in a while over extremely dumb things but over a racing incident that is bound to happen is just ludacris.'
