IainB Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Even if the track is bad, should still be better than it was in Prague... hopefully the kids will just do as their told and get on with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer1969 Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Think they might have under estimated for crowd level, we all got shunted round to back straight from main gate and now they seem to be opening up some seating on bends 2 and 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Please call it off because I genuinely fear for the riders safety. This has got a Darcy Ward situation written all over it. Last night we saw Elite level experienced riders struggling to turn a bike towards the end. Took a ridiculous amount of track work just to get the final three heats in.

screm Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 The organisers have been warned that if the track is as bad as it was last night this could be carnage, lets see what happens. My feeling is first accident due to the track and that will be that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Bigger crowd there than I expected. Middle tier very busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 (edited) Track grading after every race, it seems according to Tatum. Hope fans have hotels booked for tonight result could be declared after heat 12 if track is crap. seriously hope it isn’t necessary and all riders finish the meeting fit and well.

That's the main thing. I've got my fingers crossed that everyone comes out of the meeting safely. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is... and they're now out after heat 2, I'll be blowing it out early, i can see this at Leicester! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 (edited) This track usually struggles to handle 1 practice and 1 GP... Asking 2 practices and 2 GP's from it, in hindsight was a bit of a gamble Edited August 14, 2022 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers99 Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 I have Discovery+ with Sky, but I can't find it anywhere. Am I being dim please? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tactical Joker Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 This is like Wacky Races. The tractor grader in red leads from the tyre roller in yellow. The water truck in white has retired. Just need a blue tractor and we've got an alternative meeting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
someone Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 Maybe I am stupid, but I could not see anywhere on the actual Speedway GP website that said what time this meeting started. Really struggling to understand why Discovery seem to be trying to hide speedway. Thankfully came here and got a stream in time to catch the end of the first heat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 What's the record time for the longest Speedway meeting in history? This meeting will surely break the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
