i wanted to make some runs on the NX but i was rushing around and forgot to open the bottle and when i realized that i opened the bottle and had a NOID leaking and said #$%^& but thats my fault for rushing around and not being totally prepaired for the track, i want to get to a rental in a few weeks after i got everything tested and some things addressed and see if my tranny is shot

but thanks to Jannetty Racing for having the rental it was a good time just please next time dont let his kid in the tower near the mic, all his yelling was driving everyone nutz
that wasn't ted's son, that was Dave Fitz and he is hilarious. I loved it

Yeah no offense, but the dude was being kind of a douchebag on the mic.

Whoever he was, he was being a total douchebag. Everyone I spoke with wanted him as far from the mic as possible. He was so annoying that he literally put some spectators that we brought with us in a bad mood for part of the day because they had to listen to hours of his nonsense and screaming instead of hearing someone actually announce what was going on and talk about the cars that were running. Please don't let him near the microphone ever again.

Geesh lighten up and have a sense of humor. He has done that for the past two years because he knows like everyone there except you guys, and if you know him you can appreciate his sillyness. For that to ruin part of someones day, I would have to say they should lighten up . And he will probably do it again next year, if they let him after he broke the mic, lol. I honestly barely heard it because I kept making runs.

I've been to Janetty's drag days the past couple years and I never heard anyone being ratarded the way people say this guy was. If it is the same guy then his methods of announcing have changed. Nothing can ruin a good day at the track like a bad announcer.
