Monroe, LA (March 12, 2010) Now that Monroe Motor Speedway is back in business, General Manager Rusty Marcus has headed back to the track.

Marcus, who took the job in 2009, has been in Florida but is headed back to Louisiana for what he hopes to be a “great” year.

Marcus, who recently ran the Fun in the Sun Winternationals at Orlando SpeedWorld, is very excited about 2010 at Monroe.

“Now that we have our track back, it is time to get to business of racing. Check our website for updates on the 2010 season. We hope to start some open practice soon and then the 2010 season shortly after that.”

Marcus, who was previously the General Manager at Orlando SpeedWorld in Orlando, Florida, was the 2005 Lowe’s Motor Speedway Promoter of the Year in only his first year as a General Manager.

Marcus went on to work for SpeedWorld until 2009 when he took the job as General Manager for a new racetrack in Louisiana, Monroe Motor Speedway.

Marcus has a big job ahead of him but he is definitely up for the challenge in 2010.
