Default Re: Indy Announcer

I have to agree with tommyd Nick is one of the Good Guys who was just living the dream of announcing at the Big Go, I believe it was his 50th consecutive U.S. Nationals. I understand we are all partial to our favorite announcers. But Nick is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. He may not have the technical side of stock and super stock like a Leo or Bob Frey but there is not much in this sport he has not done.

How about that Brian Olson guy? One of the most under-rated announcers

Is this Nick the same one that works @ VP fuels,he told me this would be his 50 th year at US Nationals
Did'nt hear the audio but if this the same Nick, I know he is really nice guy and I would say he had bad day or nerves,it is US NATIONALS, I have the knowledge to do the job but I know I don't have rest of what it takes to be any good @ announcing.

Travis answered my question,I feel bad for Nick,I think it would be a hard job to do.
