I just found out our V10 is a hemi with 20 sparkplugs

Idiot - perhaps a trip through the pits would help

Ha ha ha... It's 3.00AM here so the state of my mind can be excused to some extent, but... ..that's just funny!

What Andrew said. No one knows more about stock and super stock than Leo plus it will just be great to hear his voice.

Let me just say that Nick Agresta is a super nice guy who has raced,managed racetracks and is a long time announcers guild member. Maybe an off day? Hate to hear this said about him.

I have to agree with tommyd Nick is one of the Good Guys who was just living the dream of announcing at the Big Go, I believe it was his 50th consecutive U.S. Nationals. I understand we are all partial to our favorite announcers. But Nick is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. He may not have the technical side of stock and super stock like a Leo or Bob Frey but there is not much in this sport he has not done.

Could not believe what I was hearing. I just figured the real announcers had an accident on the way to the track, so they grabbed somebody from security that could read the computer screen. That was extremely weak....not at the biggest race of the year...come on man! Maybe those guys can get a job doing Monday Night Football next....unbelievable !

I am really sorry to hear all the negativity towards Nick. As someone said maybe he was having a bad day. We are all use to Leo who knows everyone and there story.
But let me tell you all you will never find a person with more passion towards drag racing then Nick Agresta. Everytime you go to crossroads dragway nick makes you feel like a rock star. I have know Nick since I started racing 28 years ago. He has done it all in racing. Every year I see him setting in the same place at the U.S. Nationals and there isn't a happier guy in the stands then Nick. So please take it easy on my friend.

How about that Brian Olson guy? One of the most under-rated announcers
