As a season ticket holder I'm getting pretty bored with speedway at Foxhall already this season in a year that promised so much with the winter track work and initial team that sadly never got a chance to get going!

 

Fed up of watching a very mediocre Justin sedgemen not be at all bothered already......

 

don't pay money to watch riders give what seemingly was little to no effort whatsoever......

 

gave up on the first corner in first race (citing bike trouble, which if legitimate fair enough although why come to the tapes on a bike that can't do a lap at the start of a meeting....very professional!)....

 

a bikes length behind worrall coming out of the second bend on the first lap and by the third bend he's shut off and settled for second coasting round for the 3-3.......same in the next race and then credit to him he won a reserves race 👏🏻

 

Never seen nico covatti give up on a single point!

 

Then there's the track work undertaken over the winter....what's the point in spending the money and time to undertake changes to improve the racing if a consistent reliable racing surface, with more than one line cannot be produced

Not the first time a dry sunny day has meant awful track at night, but it shouldn't happen​. What next? Us sensible people that won't go anywhere near a track if there's a threat of rain, do we now have to avoid going when the sun has shone all day?

I won't put up with crap like that for much longer.

Pretty dire fare that was.

 

Finally on lap 2 (or 3?) of heat 15, lambert who was well in the lead, tried a wider line round turns 1 & 2.

 

Didn't gain or lose any ground, but at least he tried something no-one else did all night.

 

Dunno what ippo have done to the track but I think the racing has been poor all season. Just nothing close and an overtake is such a rarity.

 

It was far better 2 maybe 3 seasons ago.

 

Just seems to be a gater's track now but not because it's so slick.
