I know the ADR Directors for Z but who were the ADR Directors or director for DB and GT?

[Lord Beerus]

Barry Watson was in charge of the script for Dragon Ball and was the ADR Director for GT. Eric Vale was in charge of the script for GT, too. Barry Watson was formerly a producer and voice director for FUNimation, but left in 2006, along with other former FUNimation staff, Stephanie Giotes and Richard Ray, to form and become president and CEO of Illumitoon Entertainment. The company would specialize in have it's licensed anime airing on TV and distributing unedited dual language DVD's. They were in partnership with Westlake Entertainment to distribute anime, and they licensed several anime such as AM Driver, B't X, Beet the Vandel Buster and Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. However, several Illumitoon releases had production issues including music being changed, the use of dubtitles (subtitles created from the dub script) and inoperable discs. After Westlake ceased distribution of their titles, future releases from Illumitoon were cancelled in late 2007 and the company went defunct shortly after that.

But who was the ADR Director for DB and would they be the ADR Loopers?

Justin Cook was ADR director for Dragon Ball.

Justin Cook was ADR director for Dragon Ball.

Was he? I could have sworn McFarland directed Dragon Ball...maybe it was just a few one off episodes or something.

As for GT, I used to know, but for the life of me I can't remember now.

[Nightmare Wheel]

I seem to remember hearing that GT was directed by Christopher Bevins.

[DBZASHKACHU]

Christopher Bevins was the director for DBGT, Barry Watson's name is also included as the director for when they started in the Baby Saga, Eps-17-21 or so. For Dragon Ball the credits list Christopher Sabat and Justin Cook for a good chunk of the beginning, around the Red Ribbon Army stuff it credits Justin Cook and Mike McFarland. Then it's Mike McFarland as the director until the end I believe, for both DB & DBGT Chris Cason and Sonny Strait are credited as assistant ADR directors in some episodes.

This was still Funimation's early years, when they didn't have too many shows under their belt so for most of their early shows it was either Chris Sabat, Justin Cook or Mike McFarland as the director. I think Christopher Bevins had worked as an ADR Looper on DB, DBZ and Yu Yu Hakusho before directing DBGT.

The DVD's are the best place to see who directed what, I always looked at the credits for some reason as a kid that's why all of this stuff is burned into my memory even years later.
