Before the meeting from 7pm -after the meeting there would be no problem with apart from they’d be doing hot laps to an empty stadium. 

7.45pm first race is perfect......there are a lot of people that have to travel a fair distance to attend, 7.30pm start would stop me and my wife attending as we travel from boston but often don’t leave work until 6.15ish, as it would many others I suspect, is 15mins at the end of the night such a big deal ?

That is, when you have to get up and go to school the next day.  Appreciate you coming from Boston at a bad time of the day, but surely, you leaving 15 min earlier is not a big deal either....

My feelings are. Speedway needs to appeal to the families and to do that we have to promote a slick program eliminating hold ups and be finished early.    The families then can go home to get their youngster to bed.   Having additional junior races after the interval  will always go down well......

When JC was in situ. Those meetings during summer hols never seemed to drag on, always something going on. Still light at 9.45 etc. Young Buster was onto something at Saddlebow, sadly he never got replaced and a lot of the fun element got drained out of the Club.

 

Still new era starts tomorrow. Blank page and all that.

The problem hasn't been starting at 19:45, it's been the dragging on of meetings. Should all be done and dusted in 90-100 minutes.

As I’m aware this season heat 2 should start 4 mins after the riders cross the line finishing heat 1 and so on through the meeting. This should take about an hour so that leaves 30 mins to cover false starts, crashes etc so could and should be viable to finish a meeting about 9.15ish. The first race starting at 7.45 would be a start to this happening.

Get up for school in the morning Webbo?  You have got a bloody good memory :D 

Funny what years do to you.   When I was younger, I could never get enough sleep,   Now, I don't go to bed early and cant wait to be up .  

Cant remember sleeping 4 more than 5 hrs....
