    Trenton Berry

    Had heard this fellow call a race or two in the past, but didn't catch his name, but IMO he's one of the best in the business. After listening to him and Essex call the Show-Me, it reminded me of the oh-so-smooth flow and continuity of the old MRN announcers for NASCAR back in the day. I like listening to Essex, but TB seemed to have a calming effect on him that made Essex better. Their yin-yang (TB = calm, Essex = ebullient) personalities worked well together, and showed how commentators can actually add to a race.

    I think a lot of announcers (Dewayne??) would be well served to listen to Trenton Berry and try to emulate his style.

    I enjoy listening to him also. He was at the dome back in December as kind of a roving reported and had some funny quotes.

      Very good announcer. Has plenty if knowledge and didn't over-do things. Called a good race, sounded like he has a background in radio.

        Agree, calls a good show.
        I hate time trials.

          He did have a local radio show a few years ago, before starting RacinDirt.com.
          Trenton is great at what he does, and a good guy, too

              Definitely better than Bob( all I can talk about is Black Sunshine,Mark Martin,or Jared Landers) Dillner. Dillner is hard to listen to IMO.

                Mike Norris seems to have the same effect on Essex. The thing I like about Trenton Berry is he knows the sport forward and back. I've seen him do video interviews on the MLRA site...really good stuff.

                Dilner is terrible.
