Presenter Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) I write to express my gratitude to Richard Garrett from Sound 4 Pro Audio and Ian King from Kingsound, who are the guys that have come in to Foxhall and sorted out the PA system. Without going into a load of detail, they found numerous faults with the system that have now been rectified and I think you will agree if you were in attendance last night (vs Berwick) that the PA is the best it has sounded in a very long time. We spent time before the meeting going round the entire stadium, balancing the amplifiers in each area to ensure we had the optimum settings in each area. There is just one area that remains to be recified (round the 3rd/4th bends) where the actual speaker units themselves need to be replaced. Richard has begun discussions with Deane Wood (from Spedeworth) and has put forward some initial proposals in terms of replacement of the entire system, as in Richard's words "He has got the car through the MOT, but with numerous advisories!" The system (in its current setting) will not be effective in the stands on the backstraight (owing to the angle of the speakers etc) and as has been said before, this would require a detailed site survey and proposal agreed with Suffolk Coastal District Council, who have a very strict noise abatement policy and procedure in place for the entire stadium. But the foundation for future works has now begun and I, for one, will continue to campaign for a satisfactory, long term resolution for all concerned. But when I visited "The Massif" last night, I noticed the difference in the audibility of the system, so I think progress has been made and we are working in the right direction. I certainly have received numerous positive comments from many supporters following last night's meeting, who have said how much their enjoyment of the event was enhanced by being able to hear the announcements etc - along with more clarity from the system. So thanks again to Richard and Ian for conducting the work and also to both Ipswich Speedway and Spedeworth for commissioning the improvements.

Regards Thank you Kevin and your team there was an improvement last night in what we could hear on the back straight , its not the greatest but its a start and i'm sure plenty of those who sit with and around the Massif and everyone else who chooses to watch meeting's from the back straight area in thanking you Kevin for your continued work in trying to provide a better sound quality for us to hear . You must already be earning the brownie points for this year Massif award . Thank you again Kevin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Good news for young Mr. Newman - http://kylenewmanracing.co.uk/newmans-scan-results-revealed/ Glad to hear it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Pleased for Kyle that he should be fit when there is still a meaningful chunk of the season left. Throws a challenge down to Sarj to make it impossible to be dropped..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Good news for young Mr. Newman - http://kylenewmanracing.co.uk/newmans-scan-results-revealed/ Glad to hear it. So hopefully in 4-6 weeks Newman will be fit and ready to resume his season. You can bet if not at Ipswich then a rider like him wont be on the sidelines for long.

You can bet if not at Ipswich then a rider like him wont be on the sidelines for long. Its already been stated that's Sarj is a temporary replacement and Newman will return to the side once fit. Although maybe we should just keep Sarj and let Newman strengthen up someone else just to give the rest of the league a chance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk127 Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Good news re Newman but let's wait and see. Speedway is a funny old game and as long as both riders are active it is for the good of speedway as a whole and Sarj rode his socks off last night and no doubt Newman would have done the same. It supports the idea of a squad system with the potential to loan a rider to another club as long as it is not to a team that the loaner (sorry not the deal phraseology) is due to race against in a league fixture. In other words Ipswich could not lend Newman to Redcar if Redcar were the next opposition. Just a thought and probably a load of b....ll..cks but I would rather see both riders active than one sidelined because the home team could not fit them in. ✌️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Interestingly the club website has updated King's track record last night on the club info page, but the track length remains 285 meters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Interestingly the club website has updated King's track record last night on the club info page, but the track length remains 285 meters.I posed the question on the Sheff meeting thread. The website,programme and indeed the Speedway Star preview all listing length as 285m but it cant still be that. Perhaps no one could find a trundle wheel 😆😆 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 The track probably isn't any different since its measured a metre from the curb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 The track probably isn't any different since its measured a metre from the curbbut the kerb came in 2 metres so the new measure line will still be 2 metres inside the old measure line ??? It has to be shorter. Do a little experiment - all you will need is paper, pencil , string an scissors!! 😆 Draw your track shape, fit the string to line and cut. Then shave off a section to create a new inside line to make a new shape into your turn 1. Fit a new piece of string to it and cut. I guarantee the second piece of string will be shorter.

CookieIpswich Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Maybe a couple of male pboro fans can get together on this and use part of their anatomy instead of string.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 It's only a tiny part of the entry to the corners, so it's only a couple of metres shorter at the most Maybe a couple of male pboro fans can get together on this and use part of their anatomy instead of string.... Do they have any male supporters, cos some whinge like girls 👭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 For me if Ipswich can hang in there until Newman returns i recon they have every chance in this league.If Newman can get back for the home Glasgow fixture ( a big match) he would of missed 9 meeting's hopefully Sarjeant can chip in until Newman returns.
