Tucci
Returns to PDRA Announcing Team
PITTSBORO,
N.C. (February 11, 2016): One of the most sought-after
announcers in the industry returns as ‘The Voice’ of the
PDRA. Al Tucci has one of the longest running commentator
careers in drag racing with his own unique, personable
style of entertainment. After a one year hiatus from the
PDRA, Tucci will join the 2016 tour to bring fans and
racers a fresh, engaging, high-energy address of each
event.
Tucci joins Carl Robinson and Lee Sebring to cover events
from the tower, the top end, and in the pits. The PDRA
will also continue its coverage through the Live Feed by
Motor Mania TV.
Tucci got his start announcing for track operators
Broadway Bob and Jim Ledford and has announced both in the
US and internationally. In 2015, Tucci continued his
presence at major radial tire events, including the Radial
Tire Racing Association, as well as many other high
profile drag racing events.
“The PDRA has all the right ingredients,” relayed Tucci.
“They’ve got the best of the best. They are onto something
very positive for spectators, sponsors and racers. They
have the best names, utilizing the best equipment on some
of the best tracks in the country. I’m just glad to be a
part of it again. I’m excited to help it grow.
“I appreciate Johler Demolition and President Robbie
Johler for giving me the time from work to announce for
the PDRA. Johler Demolition is the number one demolition
experts in Chicago.”

March 11-12. The Live Feed will continue to provide the
Quarter-Max Starting Line and Top End Zones online fans
love, but also has exciting, new features in store for
2016. Details to come.
“I like to entertain and I like to make people want to
come back, to go home and say ‘Wow, was that a great
time,’ and bring more people back with them next year,”
Tucci emphasized. “I’m excited to be back with the PDRA
again and be a part of something great.”
