    I despise the way announcers have taken to calling the racetrack the "racing surface." Some do it incessantly.

        I’m not gonna bag on the bad ones, but Mike Norris, Michael Despain, Dustin Jarrett, and the guy who announces for Cedar Lake are pretty good.

            Saying that a track that has been terribly prepared or locked down track “Has Character”

              Most the time I’m just happy I can watch a dirt race from my house. All I ask for is good video feed.

                They get paid every time he says” Dixie chopper feel the thunder”…….not sure why that’s so hard for folks to understand…….that’s what they pay them to say.

                No different than the “ boogers septic cleaning hobby stock division” announcements they make.
                Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                  Yep they have to take care of sponsors. My only complaint with that is they manage to put that huge logo right over the cars taking the green flag.

                    I’ve only ever heard the expression character used for tracks rougher than the Baja 1000.

                      It’s paid for too…..I don’t mind it for the first lap….dilner gets a lot of crap on occasion but I like him, even with the faux paux moments…..we all have them.

                      I can’t stand the term” gaggle of cars”

                        I’ve heard broadcasts numerous times call a locked down track as a track having character.
