Default Re: Vegas National reflection

Moparteacher,

Thanks for your reply! Your absolutely right, announcers can make or break an event during down times. I have always enjoyed listening to Frey, Unkefer and Brian Olson because they truly understand the sport and the little guy re sportsman competitor. I sure didn't get that from the guys (other than Frey) they had on the mic in Vegas. In the heat of the day it was blah, blah, blah blah...maybe that's why we left on Saturday.

Ed,

It didn't surprise me the "so called" fans left during Pro Stock because it's been going on for some years now. I guess if it doesn't make enough noise it's time to head for the expensive drinks. During the Pro Stock Truck era it was blatantly happening and now with Pro Stock it's even more pronounced!

On a positive note, I thought Luneack's win in SS with the wagon was impressive. Alan Ellis' new Neil and Parks built altered was well built and cool to see in primer black.

Cheers!

Mike
