Sir Sidney Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Wimbledon without a doubt - although the GRA have allowed it to fall into increasing disrepair over recent years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foamfence Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Wimbledon without a doubt - although the GRA have allowed it to fall into increasing disrepair over recent years. So I hear. It used to be great for the Internationale in the late 60s early 70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybikespeedway Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Have to agree with all before me Wimbledon ,the Internationale was something special, are there no BBC clips around Highlights used to Shown on the Thursday night After the monday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Sunderland's Boldon Stadium was good. A good and fair Track too. The Stadium is even better now - very palatial. Only one problem - there isn't any Speedway. :sad: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Although I'm biased, it must be Wimbledon. Luxury dining in the superb grandstand that was years ahead of its time. Sadly alll just a distant memory now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packerman Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Have to agree with the above about Wimbledon. The other track would be London Stadium in Hackney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halifaxtiger Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 At the moment, the best stadium in the country is Central Park, Sittingbourne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Has to be Sheffield. Excellent viewing. Excellent Carvery and reasonably priced where you can watch the meeting with excellent viewing. Excellent Corporate Boxes with Panoramic views of the track. And of course the Best Car Park in British Speedway.. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueherb777 Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Central Park Sittingbourne. And could be a lot better with a bit of investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple.H. Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Central Park Sittingbourne. And could be a lot better with a bit of investment. Which would probably be forthcoming along with a higher level of league racing and maybe even an FIM event if the local council believed the facts and not the Nimbys lies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Develop the bends and put a roof on the back straight stand and it could hold FIM events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 Never been to Sittingbourne so can't comment. Never thought of having a meal whilst watching speedway and never will I very much doubt so that doesn't get a thumbs up from me lol. All I want from stadium is a good track & viewing,really good presentation, clean loos preferably situated in a couple of places around the track, somewhere to easily get a cuppa and a free car park. Erm so no EL track passes, Lynn offers the majority but falls down on presentation ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midland Red Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 This is UK only question and covers all clubs past and present. Which Stadium has the best facility's you have been to? The question is - what is the plural of "facility"? !!! PS. The answer to the original question has to be 1. Wembley 2. Plough Lane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike.Butler Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Have to agree with the above about Wimbledon. The other track would be London Stadium in Hackney. you are joking. The viewing at the new London stadium was appalling. Only thhe addition of temp stands for GPs made it fit for use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm so no EL track passes, Lynn offers the majority but falls down on presentation ...... I'm with Trees. I dont want to sit down and eat at speedway (or any sport for that matter!). Like Trees I want a good track, good viewing, decent PA system, some loos (I don't expect anything to glamorous tbf but not having to wade through 2 inches of water is NOT good), I'd prefer a pint while Trees has her cuppa and I agree on the car park. I'd also like to add the sale of a decent bag/tray of chips and a burger to the list. I don't want a seat at speedway as it's wasted on me. All at reasonable cost too. Weighing all that up, Sheffield, Coventry and Somerset meet most of them criteria but all fall down somewhere. Poole probably, just sneaks this honour for me - I hope starman and co see I have given them some credit And for those who want it, you can even watch behind glass having a meal.

I'm with you and Trees and I think many others would be too. Based upon experience this season, there are a few that hit all of them :Wolverhampton, Redcar, Mildenhall, Lakeside. Plymouth would but its toilets are something out of a Hammer Horror film. I am surprised you can have Coventry and good track in the same post Edited November 4, 2014 by Halifaxtiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 If you want a good feed, kurri kurri speedway(NSW) best roast beef & gravy rolls going. Plus free car parking, grass terraces all the way around the track & a bar on the hill so you can still watch the action. DD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
