Jarod DeAnda inked as the announcer for 2010 Xtreme Drift Circuit as more companies become a part of the XDC Super Show
March 12, 2010 (Tustin, Calif.) - In a further round of announcements for the Xtreme Drift Circuit, the series is proud to announce that Jarod DeAnda will be announcing at all six events of the 2010 Xtreme Drifting Circuit. In addition to being known as the 'Voice of Formula Drift', DeAnda's announcing credits include DMCC, HyperFest, the Need for Speed video game series, Rally X at the summer X-Games, and snowmobiling at the winter X-Games. DeAnda's passion, experience and knowledge for drifting will make him a great addition to the XDC.
"I'm stoked to be a part of the XDC Tour," said DeAnda. "Meeting and announcing for the up-and-coming drivers across the country will be fun and education for both the fans and the competitors. Current Pro drivers had to start somewhere and now with sanctioning bodies like the XDC the drivers are going to have more opportunity to become professionals even sooner. Thanks to XDC for the opportunity and I'm looking forward to getting the crowd hyped!"
