Where is Alan Reinhart?

[Dragracer]

He is doing top end interviews at Indy.

Is he being punished? Top end work is nothing close to announcing from the tower. Major demotion...

If I was guessing I would say yes.

Top end isnt a easy job like you think. Very few can do it like Alan.

I have no idea, just glad to see he is back.

 

[mick]

at least he's not in shirley's firesuit ...... bad idea whoever made amanda wear that

 

[Von Halen]

I love Alan on the top end. I think his driver interviews after the run are stellar.

 

[J. S.]

Who knows why they changed it up at Indy this year by putting Alan at the top end. Maybe they had already committed to the other announcers during Alan's absence?

Many on here complain that the usual top end interviews lack substance. Now when we get the guy down there who really knows his stuff, they still complain.

Tower announcing was less than stellar. Hope AR gets his rightful place back and soon.

Alan did some sportsman stuff. I really like his top end interviews. They are smart-assy and humorous. This was his old job, 20 years ago. Maybe he likes it. He said his allergies and voice were bugging him.

Chris Monahan (sp?) did a pretty good job.

I want to hear Hannah do some more announcing. She’s amazing. They are all good, but they don’t really have the Rheinhart/Bob Frey voice.

I am just saying, once again, I do not think that is the case.

I'm just doing the math, nothing more nothing less and if you believe it's all just a plan, well......

Alan's contract may have stipulated an actual tower to announce from.

 

[flapjack]

Silly season has started earlier than normal

 

[65 Goatboy]

Absolutely, but his place is in the tower announcing. Today's coverage is the worst I have ever seen on NHRATV.

Jason Galvin is not Alan but he's not that bad. I like Joe Costello.

He did top end at atleast one other race this year so not all that surprised. Keep in mind he was having some serious allergy problems earlier in the week so not near as much talking to do at top end.

Jason has been doing a excellent job on the call and Alan at the top end has been great. I enjoyed the broadcast all weekend.

I do not. It’s completely the opposite, meaning there is no “plan”. No conspiracy here folks.

Some people seen to disagree. Not me.

Maybe Alan wants to take it down a notch, retirement on the horizon. He's been doing the travelling circus for quite a while.
