BTFC LION

True but, I'm sure lessons will be learned.

The track has a couple on bumps in the 1st bend, nothing to serious, but all being well it will be sorted very soon. As for the watering , 14 bowser were used during the day, that equals around 56 thousand ltrs, it did go dusty late on, more water was going to be put down but the driver was beckoned off the track, Have to disagree about the passing, I thought there was many good moves made. I know race times are not the be all and end all, but heat 1 the track record is broken, 14 of the 15 heats were the fastest times of the season so far, also in heat 15 Howarth was close to breaking it again.

You are correct as far as I remember, not looked at the information for a very long time. But I believe all the plans are still valid, so things could be built if the money was there. I think the plans were passed as a complete package, so if part of it is built, ie the speedway then then all of the original plans still stand?

I will ask the question as I have nothing to do with tickets or the gate.Not sure why the ticket office is in the position it is past the entrance gate, I guess it the only place it could be positioned when the stadium was built. As for the perspect screens they had to be put in as a covid measure from the council.

It is my understanding that the disabled parking spaces are on a first come basis, que at the riders gate. The car park is not part of the promotions rental of the stadiums I am led to believe, so any repair work I guess would be down to DH. As for the buggy going down to tesco car park, I don't think that would be allowed as it would need to go on a public road,

Seems to be a grey area then, red light straight on,race stopped where riders are or let it run to see if rider clears, the delay could take a leader into another lap, tough one to call I would say. Without knowing the rule.

Does anyone know the rules, if a rider falls there is normally a slight delay before the red lights are put on. So my question is. Is it stopped only when red light is shown, or does the referee have the decision to make where the riders were when the incident actually happened? Having delayed putting the red light on to see if the fallen rider can clear the track.

If Brennan had started lap 3 then fine, I know he was leading but I can't see him being that far in front at the time of the incident, he could of crossed the line before the red light came on, I will give you that.

It was bend 3, on the 2nd lap.

That's nice.

To put the record straight, Brennan had gated, Bailey in 2nd, Worrall in 3rd, going into the 3rd bend Worrall went underneath Bailey, no contact, but Bailey fell, the rerun was 3 riders only,as Bailey was disqualified. Worrall won the rerun. Glasgow so I understand wanted the heat to be awarded, but it was only the 3rd bend on the second lap.

Oh so he is going to claim injury for sat night then, interesting.

Whats wrong with Rory?

Second leg set up nicely. should be a cracker.

Come on Lions, Need to stay strong in the 2nd half of this meeting!!

Sorry if you think I was doing to much tractor work, it was needed , 30 mins between main meeting and ready for the cubs is good going, it gave them a good track to ride,more importantly it protects the track from breaking up. Which believe me tacks a hell of a long time to put right again.

it was decided that a grading wasn't needed at that point,

I get your impression of the track , but this might sound a bit strange but if you stand on the track and look at it from that angle it looks different agan.

Last Friday I spent hours taking water off the track, 90 thousands ltrs approximately, then 3 people worked that track for hours and hours, last week they were lucky, no rain after the work had been done, this week its forecast heavy rain later in the day, so it's a big risk,

I think it said you could not watch on more than 1 device, shut the lap top down, logged back in on my phone, was all good.

Mine will not work on the lap top, so I have had to switch to my phone

Track work started straight after the season finished and is on going, no major alterations, a lot of time and effort being put in to repair certain areas of the track,

Out of interest I have just gone over the cubs meetings, home and away. Dan or Joe have beaten Palin. Phillips. Flint. Bickley. J. Smith. Wilson. Ledwith. Gilkes. Rowe. Clegg. Perry. Bailey. At Beaumont park. Bickley. Palin. Phillips. Clegg. J. Smith. Rowe away from home. 6 of those riders have signed for clubs in the CL for next season. With a good chance a few more may follow. With the experience the twins have around BP I don't see them having a problem. They have ridden the track in all sorts of conditions, slick, with dirt, very wet, bone dry, so they really do know it well. Away from home may be more of a challenge, but I am confident they will overcome what ever is thrown at them. It is my understanding they have put, and will continue to put good investment into their equipment for the new season. So from my point of view, I will be backing and encouraging them the best I can.

He will be riding in the 4s at Stoke on sat.

Leicester team is Nicholls, Worrall, Douglas, Bates. Perks at reserve.
