I'd say Mel will fix the Grandstand issue. Just give him some time. He is a good guy! He loves Sprint Car racing!

FYI - I no longer do announcing at Gas City. Last September when they asked me if I was returning I told them 17 years was long enough and they needed to find some "new blood" to do the PA work. So I don't have a dog in this fight.

Maybe qualifications, trophy dash, another open wheel class and/or other ideas to surface soon(if things work out as Mel hopes).

Should be an exciting 2014 season at Gas City I -69 Speedway.

Who's going to heckle me now about my (lack of) work ethic?

P.S. Thanks for the good job you did announcing.

Stevensville - thanks, my wife thinks I'm cute too!

Or did you mean Stephanie?
Yes. Her. Of course.

I'm going to miss your announcing. Didn't know you were hanging it up until now. It is quite pleasant when you go to a track and the guy/girl behind the mike knows what they are talking about, notes who is driving which car, calls the shots immediately, and does not think they are a comedian.

You were top shelf.
