Recommended Posts

Congrats to the new promotion for all their efforts last night, to promote their first meeting.

There was a nice feeling about the meeting with a big crowd in, possibly 2000.

A new Scot on the presentation mike, who sounded very like Scot Wilson of Edinburgh but it wasn't

 

 

I believe it was John McGillvray but he wont be too pleased at you thinking he was a Jambo! Just call him a Fifer next time you see him ;)

 

John's done centre green at Armadale a bit as well and the occasional fill in for Glasgow too. Sandie will be able to tell you all about him including some things he would rather she didnt lol

Well both stood beside me tonight and didn't tell me how good our track was tonight, or how bad theirs was last night. Funny that.

Last season I was so against all the tractor racing that went on at Derwent Park. It got ridiculous last season grading the track when it did not need it. My thoughts last season were get on with it and tell the certain riders to go and ride it instead of spending all that time grading and fans getting sick of every meeting dragging on and on. Workington used to have the slickest of run meetings I've ever been to but the last couple of years have changed to so much tractor grading than is required. Standing on that bend freezing watching tractors go round and round is sickening when at most times not needed.

Last night was different the track was dangerous at times and needed graded and I have no problem with that at all.

I just hope that when the track is sorted we get more racing than tractors this year.

The rest of the night for me was fantastic very well promoted and a very different feel to the night than has been there for ages.

Scott Nicholls a true pro and had time for everyone outside the pit gate.

The girls singing very very good

The racing was good considering the conditions

Sweets for the kids

The new race card brilliant

We could do nothing about the cold but a great start by the new promotion

Fireworks fantastic what a great display

Hope everyone returns next week
