H&S doesn’t exist in speedway like in the outside world it seems? The tunnel over the pits at Arena Essex should have been condemned years ago as it was never lit that I saw, and Old Bob of Herne Bay always used to joke the toilets were never lit.

lack of lighting and tripping hazards I expect exist at more than a few tracks too.

The track may have been small, but it definitely wasn't s##t. The primary grumble Hammers fans are having regarding Rye House is that the standard of racing it allows is much poorer than what we had at the Arena. This does not mean we aren't grateful to still have a team. We are thankful of the help Rye House have given to us.

Piss poor run down stadium was great with a s##t small track

Wake up

Lots of different lines at Arena meant lots of passing opportunities on a very wide track.  Get some DVDs and count the number of passes after the first corner against the number of passes you see at Rye.  Arena wins hands down.

At Rye you have to get to the outside line coming off turn 2 to win. 

Example from Friday night at Rye House:

Gate 4 won the first 7 heats!

Gate 3 won 5 of the next 7 heats!!

Only 2 wins off gate 1 or 2 all night!!!  And they were Morris and Lawson who were the best riders on show anyway.
