  • Damn i hate computer generated narrating..Do people not know how to narrate anymore?
  • @idontcare3013
    Video would have been better if a real person had narrated it.
  • @William-rz7qe
    Please stop using AI narration. It is horrible and most annoying!!!!!!
  • @res7s
    The AI shit ruins this video. Quit using it.
  • I guess I'm too picky, can't abide the AI voice over. Get a real person to speak of the history.
  • You know it's a bot when they quote a year in thousands. 😂🤣 Blocked.
  • George Montgomery Made A Valuable Contribution To Drag Racing & Deserves A Better Tribute Than This Virtually Painful Narration. Thank You. (Like #748)
  • Paused at 39 seconds, I've heard enough. I can't take the robot voicing anymore.
  • @RLHauk

    George Montgomery's AA/GS 1969 Mustang was the car that killed the gasser class. In 1968 or 69, I was living in the St. Louis area as a 19 year old drag racing fan. My home track was the old Alton Dragway, and one weekend Alton featured a show with 10 AA/Gas Supercharged cars, which I loved. I attended the race and of all of the traditional gasser cars, such as the Anglia and Willys, was Montgomery's late model mustang. Because of the Mustang's better aerodynamics, he slaughtered all of the old traditional gassers. You could watch the same Mustang on nitro running in the 6s instead on Montgomery's car on gasoline running in the 9s. I knew, as a 19 year old, that day was the day the music died for the gasser class.

    Did they have to use an AI narrator? I had to turn it off.
