Any chance of reading the program or filling in the scores is curtailed when the darkness falls. For 4 years now, we have complained to Buster, Nathan and Dale about the poor sound quality we get in the Royal Box, but we are still waiting for them to do something about it. We cannot even hear the results, let alone any interviews. If it wasn't for the big screen we would know nothing.. I find this real annoying that we have 750 seats, people paying £1 a head for the privilege and we cant hear a thing, yet on the 3rd corner where the VIPs are stationed, the PA are loud and clear . I wonder how many more years we will have to complain before anything is done about it...... It took a while to get the speakers sorted on the 1st bend but they have been sorted now, I will ask about the Royal Box again, it annoyed me something chronic that I couldn't hear interviews.. Any other complaints whilst I am emailing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a wet night you can even watch him for 2 hours removing slop from the track. Well some do. Others learnt their lesson. Yeah trying to get the meeting on to save the costs of both teams, costs for the fans and himself, often works... Do you remember Huggy doing the track? Getting rid of the berms so the track was at it's optimum after every race. You don't care about the track being good for the riders then? Give them anything to race on is your motto?

Then out comes the tractor, yes, making the track smooth but ends up killing the entertainment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
