Guest Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) IMO an interesting comparison in regard to current attendances and previous attendances would be for Lakeside Hammers. How do the crowds for the National League racing now taking place compare with the previous senior grade racing that took place there?

teaboy279 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Lakeside is literally one of the worst tracks to estimate attendances with such open spaces. I ve been to Banger events there with 10,000 plus people yet (turns 3 and 4 for speedway) was still like a ghost town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) I realise that it is only possible to make a 'guesstimate' in regard to attendances but I would be interested in such for Belle Vue. What is the difference in attendance for the SGB Premiership Speedway League matches and the National League racing? Where it is possible to make a comparison with the 2016 season, what has the trend been? Edited May 31, 2017 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 King's Lynn V Swindon looked a little bit up last night - my considered guesstimate is 1,200 to 1,500 max. In perfect weather but with a starting sun break until 8.10 pm ( after a first race "trial" at 7.45 pm ). Racing OKish -when Robert Lambert was chasing very hard and likely to pass but 9 races were tapes to flag processions after exiting the 2nd bend.

That's an encouraging Post in regard to the attendance at King's Lynn (v Swindon). Let's hope we have similar indications from other tracks - the weather is in an excellent spell at the moment and hopefully will entice more people out of the house to make a visit to their local track?

StevePark Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 I would guess there was about 8-900 at Ipswich last night (vs Newcastle). Hard to tell from where I was (in the Grandstand on the backstraight) how many were sitting in said stand. Why is it called a "stand" when you sit down in it? I've never worked that one out!
