waco Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 To me the top priority for all the promoters will be bums on seats ,,or the lack of seats whatever the facilities are at different tracks...all racing formats should be geared to maximum entertainment.for the fans Get it right and all should be well going forward,,,Get it wrong and the result does not bare thinking about......

This will then bring back all the missing supporters that have been absent the last few years. Think the helmet colour should be pink though lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe rev limiters will help. It's still a good night at the speedway but there's too much emphasis on winning at all costs. And it's too expensive to get in because the bikes are too expensive. And so it goes on, the list's a mile long. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moxey63 Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 Not being funny, and don't want to be arrested (again) for questioning. But usually, this topic is bouncing by now. The thread is over a day old and yet is struggling to generate much interest and is limping along like a rider's sick bike who's been advised to drop his average and go as slow as possible. Perhaps there might be another thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
