Alessi made the other guys look like amateurs when he was in the booth. I think he'd make a huge difference
What Round again was that out of interest?

Not Matthes he's too ugly for TV.

Alessi is good in the booth, Blair would be good but no SX pedigree. Bailey was always awesome or put Emig back in that spot. Ricky has the bona fides but not the skill.


I would kick Ralphy so far to the curb that his wife and kids would be bruised. There are so many more people out there that we don't even know of that can do a better job than Ralph. Dave Rieff that used to do NHRA stuff is really good in the booth and he does some circle track stuff now.

Pull up a bit here. Don’t bring the guys wife an kids into this.
Stepping over the mark there

This was brought up over at TT. If they try to talk about the past, Blair doesn't know anything.

I doubt he even knows who Lechien is and barely MC. Barely. Old dudes who still follow the sport are best in the booth. Look at other sports....Nascar, F1, stick and ball.....all old dudes but still passionate. RJ, Bailey, that age group would be good.

Weege or the DMXS guys age at least. Just my opinion.

RC and Leeann Tweedon in the booth.
Jimmy Alberson on the track.

Blair is horrible. Get to the point bro. He rambles on so quickly.

Ralph or Weege and Nick Wey.
Wey is a good suggestion, I never would have thought of him, but he seems like a really intelligent dude and he's always funny. He may be the best pick I've heard yet.

I like Weege more than Ralph, but I'm not a Ralph hater.

In another 10 or 15 years we could have AC92 in the booth.
That kid is smart, and seems like a real fan of the racing.

RC has pretty much proved that having wildly successful career means absolutely nothing when it comes to announcing.

That’s funny. Blair, who is the trackside guy who apparently knows nothing about the past is the one that mentioned Webb/Musquin was the first time we’ve seen teammates running 1-2 in points this late in season since JMB/Stanton back in 91. But yeah he doesn’t know anything. Smh.

Do you think he or anyone else would actually remember that off the top of his head lol.There is a stats guy that feeds them information nonstop and they just repeat it.

Well I’ve traveled with him multiple times and if you saw his notes and research you might think otherwise. There are a few people on here that say he doesn’t know anything and it’s laughable.

That isn't my point at all. MC doesn't belong on the floor... Doesn't mean he belongs in the booth either.

Sure as hell ain't puttin' 7x on that floor though lol...

My point was that his insight might better serve the viewer as a floor reporter.

You don't just categorically put him in the booth because "hur dur he's 7x"

Suprised at the votes for Langston, I’m a huge GL fan as a racer, but his announcing of the nationals is shocking.. he is like your drunk uncle at a family bbq rambling on about god knows what..

For color Emig, GL, Alessi, Windham, Kevin Kelly, Ping, D Bailey, Rick Johnson and others could all do well.
