Sorry if I came across a little strong. Believe it or not, it's VERY difficult for me to hear MYSELF on the stage in the infield, with push trucks on the track and all the pit activity (including the pit PA system in use). Mike Roberts has a headset so that he can hear the PA broadcast while he's in the pits--I'm not down there enough to justify a wireless headset just for the dash draw. Dave Rieff (with a headset) will be joining Mike in the pits Saturday, and he'll be conducting the dash draw. (35 years of playing in bands/being around racing hasn't done anything to help my hearing either. . .)

When you have a microphone you do not need to shout into it. Like you did Thursday & Friday during the dash draw. From row 20 down by turn 1 i could have heard you without a mike.

We do not need the dash draw the way it is now done. It could be done in pits and just announce results. It is used now as a time filler and I do not like it. It rates with the tool box and VP gas challenge.

I don't bother with the dash draw either. I turn the volume down on time trials. Like glhayden, I also mute the pre-race stuff too. Beyond that, I'm good with Mr. Gibson's announcing during the race.

I agree with much of what you said, but Johnny GIbson did not make the WoO what they are today. The drivers from the early years did that...

No arguing, just respectful disagreement. I don't tune in to WoO shows to hear Johnny Gibson, I do it for the racing. He's obviously your favorite announcer. I like him too, but he's not my favorite.
