Personally I don't mind Alan's commentary. What annoys me the most is Brock Yates and his derogatory comments toward most musclecars. I think Mike Joy is the more knowledgeable of the three when it comes to musclecars. It might be interesting if they had guest commentators like a Jay Leno.

After seeing Goldberg on Biker Build off awards I woudnt mind seeing him do it.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Plus he would be good at busting up fights between bidders https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

I hope Speed doesn't have Brock Yates as one of the hosts this year. I don't know how many times I wanted to reach through the TV last year and strangle him when a musclecar crossed the block. Especially when the Phase III GT crossed and he had some lame a$$ comments. With the increased interest in musclecars these days, Speed should get a host who has a clue about them and appreciates the cars. Not some Car and Driver codger. (off the soap box now)

Isn't Keith Martin supposed to be the vintage expert here?

I agree that there needs to be a little more accurate info on the cars but everyone here needs to understand that this is all just "entertainment" and their main audience here is no where near as knowledgeable as this group. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

I liked the idea of guest commentators like Shelby and Leno and really agree with one of the early posters who said just hit the mute button and enjoy right here with everyone!
Sounds like what I would do if I wasn't gonna be right on stage this year! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

And yes...no more sourpuss camera angles of Reggie...PLEASE! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

They can't afford to pay any knowlegable people... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Maybe we could nominate Belair for the job, I hear he works cheap and he always seems to photograph well. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

But Joe, is there a dress code? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: BJ 2006
 

Yeah you have to wear a shirt with sleeves.

Re: BJ 2006
 

Am I losing my mind or did they just change the dates of the event within the past month or so? I thought the final weekend for the event was the 27th - 29th https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Re: BJ 2006
 

The Barrett-Jackson auction is a little bit earlier in Jan this year, and longer.

Re: BJ 2006
 

So, guess who already bought 3 plane tickets....for the wrong weekend in January? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif
*banging head against wall*

Re: BJ 2006
 

What are the correct dates?

Re: BJ 2006
 

Their literature says Jan 14-22. Not sure when the actual car auction begins though.

Re: BJ 2006
