I still miss Ned, Benny, Dr. Jerry and Larry. The original ESPN Nascar broadcast team from the early 80’s get-go.
I was Lucky to have ESPN & TNN Feeds as they came from the Production Truck at the Tracks on the way to have the chopping up, Commercials inserted, etc. What was really cool was I had Raw Feed during Commercials and Yellows. Ned and Benny would be cutting up, making jokes or talking about this or that had occurred while Traveling.
Had the same thing for F1 and David Hobbs. There was even Black Sunday with Raw Feed, RIP Ayrton Senna. And then there were the Japanese GP Commentaters rattling away in Japanese, Now That Was A Hoot and a half !!! Whatever took place they sounded like Auctioneers selling New York block by block.
