Excellent facilities at Central Park and apart from the tedious "opening ceremony" both meetings have been run been well run in my opinion. The much maligned curfew has meant that the meetings are run at a decent pace and on both days the crowd has been enthusiastic. To maintain the interest of new supporters and therefore protect the business itself the club needs to (1) find a hero (either a rider who is going to dominate home meetings or one who gets in and fights above his weight), (2) somehow stop it being a Kent rider who is last to cross the finish line in every race (in some cases half a lap behind) which will hopefully lead to (3) matches being closer, and eventually won. Let's hope that IOW really is the top team it's cracked up to be and that other visitors provide easier pickings!

Had no trouble hearing it in the main stand on BH Monday, but we moved out to sit in the sun on the 1st bend grass where we couldn't hear it. There were speakers in the area, but not working.

Says in tbe article on Kents opening in last weeks Star tbat the PA on the bends has to be turned off to prevent potential complaints from some local homeowners.

And I guess those same local homeowners will be keenly watching the finish time curfew is adhered to?

Er, yes! Which is the whole reason why the curfew HAS to be kept to!
