Batman Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 With the new owners seemingly doing all the right things, do you think they may go for race suits rather than race jackets, as they look so much more professional. I really think it would be a great move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workyboy Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 personally I prefer individual race suits, easier to spot riders and gives the riders more options for sponsor's logos on HIS kevlars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firestone1 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Individual suits and race jackets for me. Look what happened when we had them in the past, they weren't the same colour orange and it seemed everyone got them made from different places! Plus when you have guests they tend to the wear a horrible ill-fitting shirt which looks nothing like the suit.

A.N.Other Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Will the parking next to the stadium be severley restricted with the new improvements.... Â I had a look round the perimiter of the stadium the other day, and a new and faiirly large car park has been built between the third and fourth bends near to where the freeloaders stand. It was just hardcore when I looked but I imagine it is going to be tarmaced. Â I was also pleased to see that at present, half of the area where the riders vans park has been tarmaced and it looks good ! Again I am assuming that the remainder of this parking area will also be tarmaced before the start of the season, but at present it would be pointless, as heavy machinery seems to be being used inside the stadium, which of course would damage any newly laid surface. Â New UPVC windows and security roller shutters have been installed in the walls of the "Gus RIsman Bar" (vip lounge). Of course fencing has been installed all around the stadium, with security gates to access the riders vans parking area. Â Painters were busy painting various doors when I visited, plus it seems that the turnstiles are getting a revamp, including some turnstiles that have never been in use for years ! Â I have been told that the old wooden seats in the grandstand have been removed and new ones are to be installed too. Â And also I believe that the Derwent Lounge is having a total refurb too. Â Just my assumption and I may be totally wrong, but it wouldnt surprise me if eventually the long term plan is to close vehicular access to the stadium across the small bridge, (as this was causing problems some time ago), and the access by road will only be permitted via the rear of Tescos ?? Â All in all, quite some refurbishment, and one that I am delighted to see ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BNFLComets Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Wonder if the Comets will be using the new electronic scoreboard? Â This, and the other ground improvements for the RLWC will be of great benefit for Town and the Comets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GM Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 Pleased that Richard has got a Elite league place but very disappointed that its a Friday night track he has signed for. Just the fact that he will be doing all the traveling and riding the night before we race most weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
