Greg Anderson interview...

[Dave]

Did the mike cut off or did they know Greg was ready to bash the facility and broke away?

 

[Super Mod]

Yeah, that was my impression. He was going to go on a rant and trash the raceway and they cut him off.

 

[flash]

They cut him off. I could just make out ...." this place sucks "

 

[paoldtimer]

They cut him off. I could just make out ...." this place sucks "

the "sucks" was fading away quickly and then he be gone!

 

[Al smith]

they must have a delay. They did cut him off, sounded something like this

:Nice run

:No it wasn't a nice run. I almost crashed, this place.

Then I thought i heard someone in the background or in the tower in the background admonishing someone.

 

[AC]

good for him, nhra has no respect for the prostockers anyway. Glad to see he is standing up for the safety of the racers.

 

[vegasnitro]

I could tell he was p!ssed as soon as he started talking ... "Sideways thru the lights" and "this place sucks" were heard ... but that was about it ... then a few seconds of dead air. Maybe he just walked away lest he get fined?

 

[TSK]

I'm sure Whit Bazemore didn't make any friends at Firebird with his latest interview on Comp + when he said Phoenix should "absolutely not" be on the schedule. And, that the place is an embarrassment to the sport.

WHIT BAZEMORE: SPEAKING FROM THE HEART

Did they cut it off for you guys I just saw it on my tv and they played everything he said.

That was a bit of a different interview..when we were listening to the audiocast, Greg was livid! Not calm, cool and collected like when he was talking to Gerould.

 

[Mooseman]

Oh ok I understand.

 

[Al smith]

didn't see it on TV, Do you think it was a do over interview? seconds after the cut off the guys in the backgound in the tower (nhra command control?) Seemed to be laying into someone over the radios, Did anyone else catch that? Wonder if they will be archiving the audiocast. Id like a second listen to whatever those guys were saying.

 

[Silly Savage]

I guess we'll know more when the race is finished tomorrow...

 

[paoldtimer]

Alan does the audiocast interviews and Gerould tv interviews, right?

The PA/Audiocast is Reinhart and Gary is ESPN2

 

[sammi]

He has a right to be pissed. In this age of laser guide pavement grinding and leveling systems, Firebird has be be negligent for letting racers run down that crummy track.

 

[TAFC 5 81]

They needed to borrow some spoilers from the NASCAR guys to navigate that left lane.

I love Pro-Stock, It's my favorite class in NHRA...but the racers take away as much downforce as they possibly can to help their MPH, put those cars on the absolute edge to gain a few hundredths, and then gripe at NHRA and the facilities when the cars get loose on the topend. Guess NHRA is going to be forced to have a "minimum angle" rule on the rear wing??

That explains it, I almost never watch the poweraide TV broadcasts, (I try to view the lucas oil series) I could not remember who did the top end interviews.

They already have a minimum angle and a minimum wicker. What they need is a decent race track
