racers and royals Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Amazing article on the Speedway GP website regarding preparations for the 2023 Cardiff GP. The shale is being analysed in a Newport Laboratory to ensure A 1 conditions on the day. I wonder if that is a spin on someone feeling under the tarp to ensure no water ingress !! 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric i Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 I don't think the very hot weather helped with the track last year...... September should be cooler. A wider track should benefit the racing, especially the straights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, the whole article could be condensed into one line. An unidentified lab has been given an unexplained testing task on the shale and then Ole will build the track in exactly same way he has done for years (including last year).

erniew Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Slightly off topic, but is anyone having trouble with the E-tickets from See Tickets? my app crashed and on reinstalling it, it says there are no tickets for this event. I've tried contacting customer service and all it does is send you an email confirming the order and saying the tickets will be dispatched about a week before the event. Now as far as I know, there are no paper tickets for Cardiff so I'm at a loss as what to do. Does anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for pointing this out, I've checked and I have the same issue - tickets were there but now not. Contacted see tickets and they have said: Thank you for contacting See Tickets. Tickets not being visible in the app is a temporary issue that the relevant team is aware of. It should be fixed within a few business days and your tickets will be visible again before the event.

Triple.H. Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 There is an RMT strike on the 2nd of September so if travelling by train your journey could be affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Transport for Wales services should be unaffected this year as the welsh government did a deal. However GWR services through Cardiff and other TOCs will be affected.

Nobody knows which trains or services may be affected, until too late in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
