That damn Brian Lohnes! Once you hear the conversation you’ll be in on the joke because Brian is a wonderful guy that is really good at what he does. In our conversation you’ll learn everywhere you can find Brian; the early work to becoming an announcer and sleeping at racetracks; taking in the moments his voice will be connected to in NHRA history; the necessity of being a jack of all trades; the origin story of his love of cars and racing, and how consuming it became; the live and in-person experience of drag racing; having other racetrack experience that bleeds into his current role; the lightbulb moment of a broadcasting career and what a tryout with drag racing entails; how an NHRA on Fox broadcast works for a mostly non-live sporting event; the work to be honest on the broadcast about what the viewer is seeing; the state of NHRA going into 2023; how the Pro Stock division has come back to life; the chase for 340 mph; a class-by-class breakdown of what to expect this season.
