Looks like he possibly has some sponsorship commitment that he wants to try to elevate by changing the impression of the class he runs. There are very few sportsman racers in NHRA that make their living from racing. He does have a good point that the announcers could do a better job by knowing the classes and competitors better.
Mike Don O Neal is a good person who always has Us racers at heart and has a class racing operation. Go and introduce yourself some time is best
