Thanks for the constructive criticism. I do believe his intent is good he just needs to dial it down a bit. Just talk, don't shout unless it's warranted. And the first car out for qualifying doesn't warrant shouting. At some tracks they are over the PA and some I believe it's just the Flo broadcast. Part of the problem also in my opinion is there is little or no communication between the camera operators and the announcing booth.

The real good announcers are at the tracks and they have a steady job. I think being an announcer for FLO would require a bit of traveling and getting a very good announcer is not easy do to the traveling. If FLO is doing maybe 10 tracks on a weekend all over the USA I can see getting a real good announcer would be a problem for some of these tracks. I would never turn off the sound no matter how bad the announcer was, I might turn down the sound some.

I’m not a big fan of Tony, just my opinion though. Definitely miss Klepper calling the sprints. Will always be a fan of Chet Christner. Chris Nunn is on this thread and not sure how he isn’t doing any announcing, unless he is and I’m just not aware. Remember hearing him do some Bloomington shows and thought he was pretty smooth and not obnoxious. Just my input from a listener/fan.

You are right. I should have reconsidered that part of my post. |

If you want to hear annoying announcers check out the Flo broadcast of the late models at Eldora! LaPorta & Sullivan are great compared to those guys!!
