(Introduce Bob Frey as emcee)
Now I will introduce the M/C of the National Automotive Technology
Competition, Bob Frey
Since he began announcing drag races at Atco Dragway, New Jersey
in 1966 - Bob Frey has evolved into one of the most iconic
personalities in drag racing; his face and voice have become as
familiar to fans as the starting-line Christmas tree. In addition to
calling all 23 of the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series events, he
co-hosted the entire schedule of ESPN Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series
shows and as part of those broadcasts hosted the NHRA Sportsman
Spotlight segments, and provides the stats for the ESPN NHRA Full
Throttle event coverage.
Frey built a legion of fans with his captivating commentary, sense of
humor, and comedic style. Throughout his career Bob has been
honored several times including most recently the First ever recipient
of special Full Throttle Championship Ring presented at MAC Tools
U.S. Nationals, 2011.
