I think the first or second race Doug was in the PRN booth for, was when Jeff Gordon won the 1994 Coca - Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. I heard Doug say that he joined PRN in 1988. This question has always had my curiosity aroused, but I don't suppose you happen to know what Doug's role with PRN was before 1994? or what the lineup of PRN announcers was like before Doug Rice and Mark Garrow became the main booth team? I know Hill Overton and Bill Connell were PRN's turn announcers in the early years, long before they had the people they have today. I think Ken Squier did some PRN races in the booth, in the early years as well, before TBS started broadcasting the Charlotte races on TV, in the late 80's. I guess the question I really want to know is, I know Doug and Mark have been the main booth team, since at least 1994. I was wondering what the PRN booth team between 1988 to 1993 was like, if you have any knowledge regarding the matter, after Ken Squier started doing the Charlotte races on TV for TBS, in either '88 or '89 I think it was? I have found no info anywhere on the internet about it. I was wondering if you have heard any insiders say anything on the matter? This has always aroused my curiosity. I'm up to date on MRN's history, but I have very little knowledge, regarding the pre 1994 Performance Racing Network era of NASCAR?
I'm not sure who was the voice of PRN before Doug Rice? I know PRN only covered a couple of races a year back in the day, unlike today where they broadcast almost a ⅓ of the season
Farewell Doug Rice 👋😞
He will still be on Fast Talk and Thursday’s on The Big Show with John Boy and Billy!
I didn’t know Doug Rice was retiring when he called Tyler Reddick’s flipped he nail it
He announced his retirement earlier this year. I have no idea who replaces him because his voice was so iconic...
