  1. It's normally much drier in Sept & Oct when the meetings will be run, silly trying to do that in late spring & summer..... In other news, recently watched the British Final from 84, run on a very wet Coventry with KC and his broken leg. So if we used to get meetings on in the wet before but don't bother now, what's the preference? For me, it's the former, with regular meetings on and postponements a rarity. I'm in the 1 point each and not re-run them camp to focus minds.
  2. Exactly. Fuel isn't the only cost: "Driving a petrol car in the UK costs roughly 15p to 20p per mile for fuel alone, depending on your vehicle's efficiency. However, the total running cost (including tax, maintenance, insurance, and depreciation) averages about 49p per mile. "
  3. Is it though? Average per mile cost to run a car, according to Google, is 49p per mile, so for a 200 mile round trip, that's just shy of £100. How much was the coach?
  4. How do you know this? Maybe the novelty wore off, or the field did not entice, or people just felt they'd done it - that was the case with a couple of my friends.
  5. Tom has been poor for Ipswich on more than one occasion so far this season, so are you saying he's not really ready for the premiership yet? I don't think you are so he's simply inconsistent.
  6. Michael Lee never suffered riding against experienced guys and there're been plenty of others, it's not about age at all. Parnitski is a gater and that's what he did in GP2, simply needs to learn how to race.
  7. It's not just about money, I don't find Manchester to be much of a draw so if it gets called off i'll feel the weekend was wasted. You pay your money and take your choice😉
  8. It's a six hour drive and then the cost of a hotel. Went to Prague instead for one night and spent less than it would cost to go to Manchester plus had a lovely city to spend time in at cheap prices.
  9. Agreed I think it was because, for once, the ref got it right and didn't take the easy option, especially with BZ involved as he's been very fortunate on other occasions when crashes have occurred.
  10. That's very dangerous and should be investigated every time it happens.
