I very much enjoyed listening to Bryan Hulbert and think he is a very good announcer.

He is eloquent and has just the right level of excitement in his voice.

I enjoyed Chet too. But, I don't miss his giggle.

Couldn’t agree more that new guy is way better. Felt like I could watch the race for the race it was without the over announcing etc. everyone has different tastes. For me personally I like the change.

I would love to have an option where I could mute commentary and turn the sound of the Sprint Cars all the way up (I have a British amp that goes up to 11)

But in all seriousness I don't think USAC have a bad Flo team at all. Always conduct themselves professionally, respectfully and intelligentenly.

I'm quite lucky as I often just tune out of commentary inside my own head as I do when watching most sports.

BUT rotation prevents things going stale and falling into the same old same old.

I also would rather hear a 410 engine than an announcer that doesn’t stop talking. Some thing else that bothers me is when the announcer is talking about something going on but the tv doesn’t show it. My favorite thing about Gibson with Woo is that during hot laps he is usually quiet.

I thought Brian did a great job! I liked Chet but obviously he wanted to go a different direction and I wish him well.

I thought he did fine.

Two things to point out. If they are announcing at the track. You don't hear em during racing most times except yellows.

The yelling during the four wide does nothing and even annoys at home, But at the track it adds excitement.
