geoff100 Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 It used to be green light then a gap up to 5 secs to release the tapes back to bad old days of jump starts then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazza13 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Mason was named as vice captain i believe at the start of last season.. remember last year was Tys 1st one back after a spell out... so maybe it was to give him the chance to bed in with no pressure.. which he did and has reaped the rewards this year by being named captain and rightly so! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cometbaz Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Heard on the grapevine that Anthony Denham no longer doing the track prep at Workington due to the number of Friday night fixtures and been unable to take the necessary time off work. Will be a sad miss if this is the case, we've had some good consistent tracks the last few seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the same grapevine, the guy who drives the tractor grading the track has alledgedly said he won't be back this season. We're gonna be in a pretty pickle now.

scaramanga Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 ive heard similar tales not 100% the same but there is a possibility anthony cant do the track due to the amount of fridays anthony has told a close friend of mine something lets just see what happens this is what happens when plans are made without talking to all involved not really having a go at anyone at workington speedway by that just a general comment and more to do with my own work place than workington speedway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
