Gresham Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 ....just working out train times to get back home. Last one is 10pm. I'm presuming with engines start at 5pm it will leave me plenty of time? Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere.... I'm looking forward to it....as I'm trying to remember the last time I watched Speedway live, probably a couple of years ago at Somerset. Hopefully I'll get the bug back again. Thank you in advance.

SCB Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 If your last train is 10pm then you'll be out well before that. You'll even have time for a couple of pints after the meeting - in fact you'll probably be able to get an earlier train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris4gillian Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Starts at 5pm so will finish around 7.30 - 8pm depending upon hold-ups (ie. crashes etc). Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Knight Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 starting tapes failures etc. Fair point PW - that can drag things out a bit - followed by the regulation stop Riding because of the state of the Track - that can drag things out a bit more - and then, of course, there is the cancellation of last four Heats. Yep - you should make the 2200hrs Train. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Potter 2 Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 The meeting finishes after the last race could be any time. Hope it doesn't go on for more than 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 We used to stay every year Friday to Sunday at a very nice hotel in Cardiff who allowed us to leave Jemma in the room for the evening. Lots of walking in Sophia Gardens on GP day, playing with a ball on The Castle grass - she was ready for a sleep when we got back to the hotel. Sunday was spent at Porthcawl before driving home. Happy memories. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't rely on this meeting to rekindle your interest in 'real' Speedway! But have a great day anyway! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Back on the April 20th - soon after the Warsaw disaster I posted the following (on the Warsaw GP thread) "To those who say they not going to Cardiff because of Saturday (Warsaw GP)..... have no worries, they dare not get Cardiff wrong this year, and if they can get it right at Cardiff then that sets the stage for all other indoor meetings". I still hold to that, I do think this year it will be a very good year, and if it is then thats the standard they got to work to at all other temporary/indoor stadia.

I await the outcome of this Meeting regarding the Track with interest............ ......and a little trepidation. That said, I do sincerely hope that it is a great weekend for all those attending.
