Friday best forecast. Thursday might depend how much water gets into the track between now and Wednesday night. Won't be much dirt on either track either -

Pickering I believe was using an engine he knew wouldn't work but was all he had. He won't be so bad again. -

Big riders showed up when it matters. Didn't see rooboy doing that well. Poole Edinburgh should be a good final -
Won them before when Shane was in the team. Listen it's probably down to preference I've never enjoyed lakeside, Ipswich, Wolverhampton either. I just don't find that kind of racing as entertaining as Somerset, Redcar, Scunthorpe, Glasgow, BV. I know for a fact they were looking away from armadale as a friend of my dad's offered Campbell land to build their own track a few years ago but think start up was too expensive. I would never say should be banned as need all tracks we can get, it just comes down to preference for me, I don't find it entertaining

Comparing ashfield to Newcastle is comparing apples to oranges. Size isn't everything, it's the space and ability to go fast out and attack different lines. Newcastle is a one line track due to narrow bends, same with armadale, and oddly same with Berwick due to again tight bends. Shape is far more important than size hence Redcar us far more entertaining than armadale

I'd say the issue with armadale is same as with Newcastle and will probably come to Plymouth as well, in that the modern engined aren't made for tracks of that size and the racing has suffered. I used to go most weeks in late 90s 00s and racing was decent when had stoney, PC, Micky Powell, Sean Wilson, greavesy etc but got worse and I stopped going as wasn't worth it anymore. It's the same as why tracks are now much slicker than they were for the same reason. Speedway's moved on and tracks like armadale and Newcastle have suffered most for it IMO
