Chet is a really good talent and probably under paid. I heard he is not coming back to USAC this year. It sure would be great to have him on the Late Model side!

He is one of the best, very underrated.
Correct. Too much travel.Quote:

I did see this posted about Chet:
Yes, Chet Christner is employed by FloRacing as a Nomadic Motorsports Announcer and Content Creator 1. He has also served as the play-by-play voice for all 99 USAC National events throughout the 2022 season on FloRacing 2. In addition, he was a part of the Speed Shift TV team before joining FloSports 3.
Hopefully we'll see more of him on FLO broadcasts.
I think I heard or read somewhere that he is going to be doing the High Limit series. In my mind, he is one of the very best, if not the best, announcers out there.
He isn’t the full time high limit announcer, that’s chase raudman. He was a pit reporter for the outlaw sprint carsQuote:

Bingo! Very educated and funny when he needs to be..and he does not always have to get the last word in, talk about things totally off subject, or talk about who's texting him during a race :).Quote:
