Track Drying Methods

[waytogo28 2,054]

Of course there are methods to prevent the track getting too wet in the first place and there are ways to dry out the track given a few hours and the staff. There are even as has been mentioned road works machines that could dry it out.

 

But it is the rain sodden brains of the various promoters over the years ( especially during the Sky income years ) that have just not bothered ( or perhaps left it as a low priority ). Until around five years ago enough die hard fans kept coming regardless, either to a rain ruined meeting or to the next one. It is that which has changed and now there is not only a lack of willingness to sort the matter out, there is no money in the sport either.

 

Making the racing exciting and unpredictable again and attracting a new generation of fans are the only two priorities the speedway "brains " ( innovators ) should now be working on.
