Joe Castello

[sammi]

I was really impressed with Joe Castello's hard work, enthusiasm and outward love of drag racing, displayed so well on NHRA.TV. That dude was really hustling over the past four days. Super impressive was his walk though the Top Eliminator Club. I was here thinking "I really need to get a couple TEC tickets for the Early Spring Nationals at Pomona."
Add in his Attention in the Pits features, working on Matt Hartford's pro stocker and WFO Radio, you have a real jewel who adds tons of value to the NHRA.
I hope the cloistered world of NHRA management realizes they have something special with this guy.

Joe is good, no doubt.

great thread mark - agree on all - emailed joe a while back and told him same stuff. luv everything he does and his passion for the sport.
really like the 'attention in the pits' ...... 'in the lanes' .....and 'drive the stripe' features he does. he is very valuable to the nhra.

Joe is a great guy and busts his ass all the time to provide top notch drag racing content.

Love what Joe does for NHRA Drag Racing. At and away from the track.

I like it when he tries to yell "Fire" for the Jet cars.... he does a great job overall.

I know! Did anything ever come (or will it be coming?) from Palm Beach that he promoted so heavily? Joe busted his ass for that.

I would more compare him to Bob Frey that Steve Evans (No one will ever top Steve), but regardless, he's great!

Castello is the best thing since Evans!

I like it when he tries to yell "Fire" for the Jet cars.... he does a great jib overall.

Yea not a fan of that,another announcer thinks he needs to be heard instead of the cars

I don’t know, sure he’s enthusiastic and knowledgeable, but I find some of his comments pretty condescending, sometimes even rude.

I still can’t believe the camera guy didn’t tell him his black hair paint was running down his forehead when he did that tour through the Too Eliminator Club.

That is awesome. I bought a t-shirt with that on there. Joe stops by the trailer on wine night occasionally.
