I remember when Bernie Partridge did it all by himself. One of the very best. Mac at his game best, perhaps.

Bernie Partridge
Steve Evans

That's all you need.

If you've ever been to the Street Car Nationals, ADRL, NMCA, etc. and heard Al Tucci, I've love to see him do a ESPN broadcast. That man has so much infectious personality its not even funny.

I'd also love to see a woman mixed in there too...

I guess it's the old "Be careful what you wish for" thing, but one of the very best I've ever heard was Melanie Troxel doing color for the fuel classes at Denver one year.

She was only available since it was the period when Mel was no longer racing alcohol and was looking for a fuel ride. Though she was absolutely that good in the booth, I have to admit I'd much rather see her on the track.

Jackie Bryce has to lead the pack. Her class doesn't get the close attention of the others so a lot of people don't think of her when they are discussing really good coverage.

If you can imagine Austin Coil/Warren Johnson knowledge paired with a Eric Medlin/Larry Morgan personality, you'd get pretty close.

Going back a 'few' years....if you ever went to OCIR, the best and funniest announcing trio was Steve Evans, Dave McClelland and Bill Doner. They were the very best.
