Track Records


Recommended Posts

I thought it would be a good way of keeping on track with venue records, If I were to post them and ask you all from your tracks to check the record / date / holder, and update it as you would update the "confirmed signings" topic before the season starts!!!

I'll keep it up to date when a track record is broken and if someone notifies me about it in reply!!!!

Cheers in advance :t:

What use is this information?

 

 

I'm sorry, does it not have Coventry or Peterborough as a central topic???

 

If you don't think the information is of use, then don't read the topic.

I read the topic to find out different track records, i'm asking you what use is it knowing the average speed.

 

 

Just a bit of useful/useless information that indicates the order of which tracks in which division are the quickest - although it's probably easy to work out, then at least there's some data to match it.

I remember AJ breaking the Lakeside track record while riding for Cov in heat 15! Looks as though he has since lowered it.

 

As for the purpose of the thread, I enjoyed reading it.

 

The one and only King of Lakeside !!! :rofl:

 

With the new Silencers slowing down the bikes slightly I would have thought a lot of the records will stand for a while ?

I know the King's Lynn track record wont be broken untill some serious dirt is put down. The only time i can remember anyone coming close was in the sheffield play off meeting in 2007, when the track was doctored to suit lynn riders and it was way to deep most riders couldn't handle it except for Tomas Topinka who missed the track record by about 0.1 of a second. :rolleyes:

I tried this once, having been looking for the information myself, but the records changed so often I couldn't keep up. Good luck with it, Nutz, it's a handy resource to have. :)

 

If one of the mods could make it a Sticky, then it'd be a bit easier to update I think - Making it a little like the "confirmed signings" thread that runs prior to the season...
