The announcers really knew their class stuff and called a good game. My only complaint is that Cody Lane's C/SMA car is consistently called "C Super Modified Automatic" when the class is actually "C/Stock Modified". The nitro sideshow announcer mostly stayed away from the mic. I hate that guy. No offense.
Having seen the Stock final, I left Sunday before the officials finally called the race feeling that I had seen the best part of the show the day before. I'll see the SS final at the Lucas Oil race in two weeks.
