Card queue is always a lot longer than the cash one though! Thanks for this Lisa - good to know. Think I’ll make sure I bring cash to reduce the queuing time!

I agree that best view and atmosphere is undoubtedly the main (outside) grandstand by the start line. Thanks for this - that’s definitely good to know as my boys do struggle to get a clear view as they’re both so short... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thinking being discussed in the crowd last week was if Worrall goes to number 1 (with Nielsen going to 2 to keep their successful partnership, unless Cook's average gets to higher than Stefan's?) Looking at the current form averages, Stefan will drop to reserve. Cook has one more home meeting to go but is averaging 5.60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos at the end trying to get out? Cheers It's ok. Car is absolutely covered in dust by the finish though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno if Weymouth are running this season? Sadly Weymouth fell foul of the ridiculous 'ghost team' ruling so cannot enter the MSDL. In fact officially i believe its only Birmingham, Wolves and Eastbourne (at the moment) in it.....very sad demise really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidder1 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 If this hot, sunny weather continues as it is forecast to do through tomorrow then its going to be a struggle for the track staff and the water bowser to get enough water into the track!!!

Nice backtrack skid. This is the thread for Poole v Newcastle so people presumed you were talking about this meeting. Any riding order will be on a different thread ie; Birmingham v Poole when that is introduced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be better prepared this week with no rain clouds to put them off. 5 hours ago, ray c said: Maybe other tracks got better equipment than we have Well that's a given.

Far too small, far too tight, only overtaking is either fence a rider or hope they make a mistake on the tight bends and fall off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
