I knew it was bad but watching on tv you just fast forward after bend three lap one. Being there in person and not having that option was mind numbing, just terrible. Monday can’t come quick enough.

I hope they have improved Poole as it needed it. the last time you saw any decent racing at Swindon was when Darcy rode for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you really expect mate, we've had buckets of rain down here for weeks. Glyn did very well to get it turned over graded and packed to a racable state. He told me it was like a swamp in the morning when he came in. And you cannot put machinery on a sodden track otherwise you will do more damage than good, You will tear the track to shreads in the tyres. Glyn and Matt busted a gut to get that meeting on, way beyond the call of duty. Just think yourself lucky you saw some speedway, otherwise you would have had the hump after a 400 mile round trip..

Mate, any NEW track is far easier to maintain than an old one, you just have to keep on top of it. if you have a curator that knows his stuff it will not be a problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
