Default Racecaller Central!

Welcome yet another familiar and inviting race-calling voice to DT.. Michael Wrona, the 'sound of Ess Eff' -- (Golden Gate/Bay Meadows)

Very pleased to have Michael join the burgeoning list of race-callers here.. Travis Stone (LaDowns), Peter Berry (MNR), Jason Beem (RD/PM), Vic Stauffer (HOL/TVG)..

Awesome and really enjoyed his time at Arlington. Remember his call on Cigar in the Citation Challenge he won tying Citation's 16 in a row. Welcome and 'RACING'.

WRONA???!! wow, good to have you on board, and yes what an impressive list of callers we have on here.

You guys are an integral part of our enjoyment of the game, and you'll find that out everytime there is a thread on who is your favorite caller. For whatever reason people are passionate on their likes and dislikes in callers.

You guys all do a great job at making something hard sound easy.

Very Cool! Obviously, Michael is my favorite race caller of them all (yes, I am very biased to the NorCal tracks ). Welcome Michael, I'll be listening to you in person in September when I head to Bay Meadows for a visit!


p.s. Tell Razo down at the Paddock crossing that I said Hi!

Dell, you know who's missing from this...... Bill Downes's son. He's the caller at Beulah. We need to get him on here too, as I know he's on trackchampion's board.

I invited him but think he's overboard on activities now. I know right now he's in SoCal for some tourneys. Byk and Chuck met his old man yesterday.

hopefully Sumwon can run at AP again someday.... and this time I won't have already scheduled something that can't be cancelled so that I can go run into everyone, especially Byk and Chuck.

He did meet the 'Patriarch' and he's only named that now because that other guy, there once a week on Fridays wearing the nurse top called himself the 'mayor'. LOL

Mac? now there's another story........and he'll be in Toga 1rst week.......

Go Willie in the Whitney!!!!!!!!!
