James and Grant Langston and the 2 best color commentators weve had in the sport in my opinion.

Chad is good at the mic too.  All 3 would be a bit much.  It might be more interesting than the racing.

It seems like JS7 is trying to tone it down and be more professional.  I like his announcing better when he's having more fun with it.

James does a great job and he has a great personality.  Just highlights the fact that Ricky has no business being in the booth.  He can barely speak English, it’s the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen in sports commentating history.

Wait, you're saying RC can barely speak English and you're using Stew as a measuring stick? Like seriously??? James does a great job with commentary and insight, but his lack of formal education is glaringly obvious. I'm not saying RC is much better, and neither of them are linguistic wizards. Our sport could do well by getting someone in the booth who is well spoken, doesn't butcher the English language to be the anchor and then use people like RC and James for insight and color commentary.

I honestly think Brayton would be a perfect fit to be "the man" in the booth. Then let RC, Stew, Blair in there on a rotating schedule. 

Jason Thomas is very well spoken as well and with some time, could be a very good TV guy.

I like how stew keeps with calling it an e/w shootout instead of a “showdown”. Showdown sounds so dumb.

I am just so damn happy JS is around the sport and sharing his insight. Fucking legend.

James is really good apart when he's trying to be funny. He also mispronounces along of words. Better than Ricky but still not a good motorsport commentator

James does a great job in the booth, RC isn't great but I don't mind him.  If they really wanted to improve the broadcast, they would get rid of Blair and let JS7 take his spot.

Exactly, like when webb tipped over none of them noticed the what's up long look back over his shoulder from Eli that he pointed out. None noticed it but him.

Bavarian chocolate cake? I still don’t get it. Either I’m missing something, or it’s simply not funny. What am I missing?

Chalk me up as another one that didn't care for Stew on the track, but I am definitely a fan of his with Him in the booth. Definitely a natural. I like RC in the booth as well, Stew just has a certain flair.

At least he didn't call him a nazi or mention the war, oh wait he did make a joke about the war in outdoors.
