When Steve Evans died we lost a great drag racing personality. At least we are losing Bob Frey to a great thing - RETIREMENT.

I think Bret Kepner is up there too (even though he picks on me whenever we bump into each other LOL!!)

Bob Frey was so great behind the mic and always seem to be smiling. He really loves the sport and it shows.

I wish him a happy retirement and I'm sure he will still be attending some events as a fan.

Bob Fry = #1 ....and he is a great guy and so much fun to hang out with over 20 years at the drag strips across this great land of ours.

Have fun Bob, you more than deserve it.

Kepner picks on everyone! That's one of the things that makes him fun to listen to. Kepner would be an excellent person to slide into the position. Jim

I think someone should offer Bob a seat in a stocker for a few races. He has done a lot for sportsman racers over the years, he should have the opportunity to be a part of the action

Yeah. Who has a Dodge Aspen?

Bob is a great guy, and a lot of fun.

Alan Rheinhart is probably the logical replacement, he's also a great guy, and a big fan of the sportsman racers.

Sure will miss him, I could see either Leo or Alan take over this position.

I would think that Alan Reinhart is the heir apparent, and I think that he would do an excellent job. Bob Frey is the best at what he does, and he is a true fan of, and friend to, the Sportsman racers. He will be sorely missed.
