Just noticed on Sean's Website that you have to access the back stright via the Livesey Street turnstiles directly opposite the new Hillsborough College.

This I believe is down to Health and safety reasons that you cant walk round inside the stadium any more

Having read the Billy Hamill visa situation on the BSPA website, this surely means that he will not be at the Cracker. Gutted for Sean if this is the case because that will be the second hogh profile rider that has let him down. No disrepect to Ben Wilson or Kyle Legault but I hope they replace him with another rider capable of winning it rather than a reserve.

having looked at the line-up,this has to be one of the best if not THE best line up for a testimonial,let's hope the weather is good and that us the supporters turn out in our droves!

Good luck to Sean and here's hoping that it is the success he firmly deserves.

 

 

It don't look to good to me from looking at Metcheck. :(

Parking.

There is a large car park at the front of stadium but you will need to arrive early to park in there.

 

UNOFFICAL! - Other parking areas.

 

Across the road from the stadium there is a B&Q car park and just a little further along there is a big Morrisons supermarket car park but please check if you ok to park there!

 

Back down the main road from the stadium there might be some places near the Hyundai garage (Rawson Street) but it is a good walk from there.

 

There is street parking around and about but I suggest you have a look on Google Earth yourself before you set off.

Billy Hamill has had to pull out of the CRACKER because of visa problems.

 

His replacement will be Wolverhampton’s rising star, Magnus Karlsson :)

I would think students will get OAP rate as long as they have a valid student card. Its a bit unfair if they don't to be honest, coz it's like that at most tracks I know of.

(I can say that as Im a student myself!!! :D)

 

Edit: and the weather doesn't look too bad later in the day, chins up people!!! :D

Being a first timer (but could become a regular if racing is good!) to Sheffield can someone let me know the best place to stand?

 

This is especially true for Sunday if you cannot walk round the whole stadium. I do like to view from the back straight but not sure if I want to restrict myself to just that area. Also has it any cover if the rain comes?

 

All help gratefully received!
