gypilgrim Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 i work saturdays change it to the sunday please The reason it is a Saturday is so that if the weather intervenes then it will be run the following day. I expect all the B&Bs in N Lincs to start a rain dance on the 12th March. Kenni Larsen and Ben Barker added to the line-up. Both know the EWR and have shown their liking for it, so good choices.

Looking forward to this as it is my birthday weekend. Glad Kenni has been added to the line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nutty Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 it says in the local paper rob is getting extra catering in for the bend fund to cope with all the fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Extra stands would be good. Probably not plausible but isn't Scunny a bit flat to get a lot of fans in??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutty Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 its not that flat could do with some banking down the back straight. rob plans to put some seating in this season if all goes to plan but dont think it will be in time for ben fund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Well there's no banking or terracing anywhere except the home straight stand? That's pretty flat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutty Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 there is a raised area on the first bend as well now this was done at the end of last season . when you look at orther tracks i think rob has done well at scunthorpe and will do his best to keep improving the ewr like i said has plans for a seating area this year at some time and the track produces some of the best racing you will see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunthorpe is no worse for viewing as say Birmingham . If it gets too bad people can always stand on the picnic tables beside the bar on the 2nd bend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 100165 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Correct , no need to be picky . Scunthorpe is no worse for viewing as say Birmingham . If it gets too bad people can always stand on the picnic tables beside the bar on the 2nd bend you are both right, but Scunny is in need of a few extra stands etc. As Silver Bee says most of the infrastructure is flat. It will be a great race meeting & i just hope some people's enjoyment isn't spoilt by the fact there is little to see.

I'd be pretty disappointed if I'd travelled all that way to see the backs of other people's heads ... Do the Ben Fund organisers take being able to see what's going on as a factor when they award these meetings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard too many complaints from the Stock Car fans who regularly attend the EWR in huge numbers. Be nice to see the stadium (which many speedway supporters helped build) filled by speedway supporters for a change.
