After listening to the return runs this morning, I guess that the New format really does convey the fact that this really is the last amatuer form of motorsports left in the world. And sadly it now mostly includes the announcers. I realize this is whatever the FNG's name's first try at covering a land speed event. But it is not Ron's and he is having a hard time trying to cover for this guy's lack of knowledge. He should have done his homework beforehand. Maybe the SCTA needs to put him on a five second delay so Ron can pull his foot out of his mouth before the stupidity broadcasts itself worldwide. This entire situation is giving the SCTA a huge black eye. Too bad.........
Not to "pile on", per se, but I was at the salt today, (Thurs); and boy! What a disappointment!
I guess one of the funniest lines was a quizzical comment about the car with an INFINITY engine as if that brand didn't belong in a race car.
I guess this boy has never heard of F1.
Last I checked,they were doing fairly well powering... what cars are they? ...
Oh, yeah!
RED BULL Just who is this guy Vettel?
This announcer needs to talk to the turkey that owns RMR.
His name is Spencer Young, and he owns a car store in Layton, UT.
They deserve each other.
I, too, empathize with Ron; he's a good guy.
We don't need the ratcheting jaw continual blather.
However, if the FIRST rule of broadcasting is, "There shall be no dead air",
these two have obeyed it in spades!
