Check Your Dial

Mike Carr · 07-17-2012, 10:43 AM

I started working last month at my home track (Quaker City). Usually announcing, but sometimes other duties. The way they do it (and the way Pittsburgh does it also), a person at the head of the lanes calls out car numbers for each pair during time trials, and car numbers and dial-ins during eliminations. Hopefully to help eliminate errors from the person in the tower in reading a slightly sloppy/small dial-in and/or car number. Seems to work pretty well. Not sure if other tracks do this or not.
