Am I hearing the great Ned Jerret!!!????
And Ken Squier??!!!!!!!!

 

[Leadfoot530]

I never watched NASCAR during their era but for the record:

Jarrett & Squier > Kyle Petty & DW

That's coming from a 17 year old mind you.

 

[RACECAR]

Reduce the audio quality and suddenly, this race would be much more authentic.

Am I hearing the great Ned Jerret!!!????

Yes you are.

 

[GTRacer22]

Ken Squire! Woo!

 

[The Bman]

Just hearing Ken Squier sends shivers down my spine.

 

[ukfan758]

If only both Ken and Ned would come out of retirement and replace DW and Jeff Gordon at FOX.

"Dire straights for debris cautions! "

 

[GTRacer22]

Ew it's Dave Burns.

 

[twitcher]

Hearing Ned Jarret takes me back 👍

They wouldn't fit into what FOX would want them to do. Besides, Ken Squier is a lead, so he'd be replacing the likes of Mike Joy.

"Dire straights for debris cautions! "

"DIRE STRAIGHTS FOR COMING BACK FROM COMMERCIALS!"

"Thanks Ken... I don't get why you can't say anything normally."

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Hearing Ned Jarrett and Ken Squire call a race is a great privilege. 👍

 

[GTPorsche]

3 wide.

How's everybody enjoying the Southern-throwback-racecar-cosplay-70's-as-f:censored::censored:k 500?

Also, Rutledge looks like he just left a disco party

@twitcher clearly you haven't watched TNN Motor Madness in the 90's lol

 

[GTRacer22]

I think Edwards has a strategy... Aaand Ned just took it from my mouth.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Dammit NBC, you should have made the logo showing the race status look like the vintage logo too.

I have to say that it is really cool having Ned and Dale in the same booth. But man, what an honor it is to get another race with Ken Squire and Ned Jarrett.

 

[nascarfan1400]

"And the war continues."

 

[GTPorsche]

Rutledge looks like a back country used car salesman.

Best part of this is Ken and Ned calling this part of the race. They're a David Hobbs or Sir Jackie Stewart short of perfection on the throwback theme for commentary.

 

[GTRacer22]

Or not.

 

[nascarfan1400]

"Heeeres Gordooon"

 

[ukfan758]

"Hold the phone..." It's like it's still 1997

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Jamie Mac is having radio issues. He's probably not loving it.

 

[GTRacer22]

"Uh-oh!"

 

[Suzumiya]

Or not.

The famous Grubb strategy? Aka messing everything up?

 

[nascarfan1400]

If McMurray can't hear why not let them use the old pit boards?

 

[Leadfoot530]

"There he is on the rim ride, on the high side!"

My god, this is just spectacular! I'm more interested in the announcing than the actual race!

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

If McMurray can't hear why not let them use the old pit boards?

I see what you did there

EDIT: Me too. Also, classic rock/soul/southern rock

 

[GTRacer22]

The famous Grubb strategy? Aka messing everything up?

He missed the pits. It wasn't even a strategy.

 

[ukfan758]

What's also special is that both Ned and Dale are in the booth together. I remember back when Ned would be cheering his son on in the races, awesome to see them commentating together.

 

[nascarfan1400]

I find the term #throwback highly ironic.
