Raceline Radio's Erik Tomas Celebrates 25 Years Behind The Wheel
I have to admit that I've never listened to Raceline Radio and generally turn it off when it comes on because I don't understand why people would want to watch a car go round and round and round a track for hours on end without actually getting anywhere - let alone listening to experts talking about it.
Nonetheless, the fact Erik Tomas's show has been around for 25 years proves not everyone shares that opinion.
The Spectator has a look back at what's turned into a major career and labour of love for the Ontario broadcaster.
Raceline Radio’s been leading the pack for 25 years

I loved it when Tomas did play-by-play for the Leafs on TV in the '80s. I thought he was a very good hockey broadcaster.

Way to go Erik...I recall when you rode off to begin that venture...walking away from the 'traditional'. Looks like it might work out.

I was acquainted with Tom Prettie many years ago...long before he morphed into Erik Tomas...

Congrats, ET!
Raceline was one of the first shows I ever had to learn when I got into this game. The concept of a network show just about blew this newbie's mind. Somehow I managed to grasp "how" network shows work and so began my illustrious (hahaHA) radio career.
Having ET there as a guiding light certainly helped as I may have tried his patience more than few times with errant button pressing. Total pro, that guy.
