Fromafar Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Would I know flip all about the time. Â Attended every weekend with my dad and uncle while Berrington was built. Attended all speedway meetings (all 3 leagues) at the venue. Attended all practice/press sessions. Attended all quad racing etc meetings. Attended all sand meetings Mark run (with things run at the speedway afterwards). Â Will go away and hide again. Â Need to do more than that before you can comment on a Berwick thread 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Whilst Berrington wad a super little track I think today its location and access would cause major problems today. Only went to Berrington once, sadly 4 years or so ago when it was just abandoned and overgrown with weeds. Glad a took a few snaps before they cleared the site completely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Whilst Berrington wad a super little track I think today its location and access would cause major problems today. Agree with, whilst Berrington was good in its day Berwick Speedway needs needs to be in Berwick upon Tweed if it has a long term future.

penchev Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Agree with, whilst Berrington was good in its day Berwick Speedway needs needs to be in Berwick upon Tweed if it has a long term future. Seems to be a BIG if at the moment. Edited June 8, 2015 by penchev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodiepatchie Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) For Berwick to have continued at berrington a lot of money would have had to been spent not just on major stadium improvements but also access roads too. Anyone who went will know what I mean about the roads to and from the stadium Never seemed to cause a problem at the time as all traffic was going either too track at start or away at end but in these days of H&S would the council have wanted better acces roads ?

StevePark Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Despite the fact this is the Berwick 2015 thread, I will add my ever-lasting memory of Berrington Lough - the night the Generator failed and they decided to try and put some cars onto the Centre Green and have them put their headlights on to light up the track! Not many volunteered if I remember corectly!! Edited June 8, 2015 by Steve Park 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topsoil Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Okay so one of them must be Terry Lindon, according to an old programme scan I have looked out the other promoter towards the end was Dave Younghusband.
