FARC National Series Driver

Earl Thomas McDermott (born March 8, 1971) is a Canadian motorsports analyst and former driver. He is currently on the broadcast team for KLTV's coverage of the FARC Lowe Dollar Series. He previously provided color commentatary for the series on OEN alongside Scott Bush.

McDermott, the son of former ARLA Elite Series champion Gregory McDermott, formerly raced a partial schedule for the Canadian team Xenos Development in the Lowe Dollar Series. Earl's son Ty McDermott competes in late models and made his FARC debut in 2019 at Moncton.

He is very critical of sloppy driving and has been known to argue with Scott Bush in the booth frequently. However, this was a source of entertainment for fans watching the OEN broadcasts, so it is speculated that Bush and McDermott may be staging some of their arguments.
