Steve0 Posted August 8, 2023 Report Share Posted August 8, 2023 It was a good meeting to watch but I have to say that Kelvin was very annoying. I actually started to count the number of times he said “no question about that” or “no doubt about that”. He said it so often that I gave up counting! Really not enjoyable listening to him and for me, it just doesn’t work with him as the sole commentator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to your post the atmosphere is what gets fans coming back, tonight was sensational, and the aggregate bonus point kept it going all the way. Agree entirely with that, it kept the meeting on edge till the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that avoids Mottram - its just a nightmare unless its the middle of the night! Ive always found coming out by what used to be the flouch pub cuts out the nightmare of Mottram, going home after the meeting you should be ok with your regular route.

IainB Posted August 8, 2023 Report Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Just caught up with this as was at Wolves last night. A pretty good TV match no question or doubt about that Particularly impressed with Woffinden's precision engineering in the pits. Also think I saw Alex Brady on the riders viewing perch at the beginning, hope he feels he can return to King's Lynn if he's not already done so. Also they kept mentioning the Flat Track GP that was held at the NSS on Saturday, it would be very interesting to know how this went and how the track rode, especially with the weather we had on Saturday Edited August 8, 2023 by iainb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people sat next to me discovered they should have been sat in row E. The people who took their seats then discovered they were supposed to be in row C which meant the people in row C ended up in row D. They all managed to grab a seat before the racing started so no-one was out. and the racing……. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed the flat track more than I have the colts this season. it was a shame they couldn’t showcase there talents in good conditions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERACE Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Watched the meeting back tonight and how many times did kelv state the Aces were under pressure to win as they were level with Ipswich, he said it 4 or 5 times, surely someone from the crew should of corrected him after the second time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
