I liked this, I miss the old broadcasters... Some are still good, like the FOX guys, and DJ has stepped up, but others... Not so much, you could turn TNT around if they hired you.
That was phenomenal! You totally sounded like either a carbon copy of Ken Squire minus the voice or one of the guys from MRN radio! You brought the passion of announcing a line-up and then putting all the little details like where the driver was from, who won what, how long has it been since a car race there...etc. That's the way your suppose to capture an audience! It's unfortunate that nowadays fans have to listen to "bland" announcers on TV, but at least the radio crew is still the same
Very, very impressive!! It's just as cool as the MRN starting line ups with the actual drivers speaking. Finally...a starting line up intro with some character! That's one of many things that are missing from today's Cup coverage. Very good job!
As a matter of fact, he did, TailsGuy. :) Zimmer has quite a diverse resume, including the scores to the Wallace and Gromit film "Curse of the Were-Rabbit," the Anime series "Blood+" and even "Driving Miss Daisy!"
This is good, you had relevant information on all the drivers.
You shouldn't just wait for someone to email you, try going to a local short track and seeing if they need an announcer or some kind of help in that department. There's also broadcasting school; education and experience are usually what people are looking for.
I thought Dale Jarrett retired in 2007? That or he announced is retirement in 2007.

Excellently done, but at 0:47 it's "im-PAL-uh", with the "pal" being pronounced like "palace".

CBS That's The Grid (Great Creation)

Yeah, I fixed the car photos after this grid and they seem to look a lot better.
As for race clips, that's one thing I've been thinking of to add to future grids. I need to experiment a bit first.
nadeau1064 4 years ago
man i dont understand why they dont do lineups like this anymore, they just scroll it on the bottom and BS.

This sounds like the music to the 1990 Daytona 500 lineup. Is that where you got it?
chicagocub1988 4 years ago
It is that music, chicagocub, but you can get it from the soundtrack to the movie "Rain Man" by Hans Zimmer. The track is called "Las Vegas."

dude seriously that was really good, the only thing I found wrong is you called Matt Kenseth a titlist when you could have just said champion.

Seriously, the only way this could be better were if Squier himself were doing this.
OlsonFan 4 years ago
Well I think TNT should give you a call because you're definitely better than Bill Weber!
The only thing I would have done differently is use the music from the mid 80s starting grids, but this was very well put together.
