ruckerroo 792 Posted September 21, 2021 First time at speedway since eastbourne shut, thought it looked a tight match on paper. Proved anything but, kent outgated and outpaced on a slick track. One sided match and rushed thru. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted September 21, 2021 A flat end of season feel about tonight's meeting. A walk in the park for Leicester. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
old bob at herne bay 828 Posted September 21, 2021 Kent well spanked tonight. 5 man team and even our 2 big guns failed to land a blow. Maybe not the enthusiasm with no chance of a p. off spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waco 1,026 Posted September 21, 2021 As Ruckeroo says the meeting rushed through to accommodate the end of season doo in the bar after,,,,,,,Kent consistently out gated by a strong lions team..but no track grading and watering to assist the likes of Nicholls and Batch to overtake ,,The fans go for the racing and tonights was spoilt ,,, it seems the after meeting activities were more important than the meeting itself,,,this is not what the fans expect !....Shame the rest of the season has been enjoyable tonight i was just annoyed the way it was run 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
old bob at herne bay 828 Posted September 21, 2021 That's a very poor show Waco ... very poor indeed. Didn't know that the "planning issues" restricted the time allowed in the bar , just the on track time to an 8.30 pm curfew. So totally unecessary to rush through the entertainment. Maybe Len likes to get to bed early. He might pay the price in dissing fans from attending the remaining Royals meetings , assumming the weather holds for anothe month ?

BrizHeathen 37 Posted September 21, 2021 Kent is a long midweek drive for most away fans, the early finish was appreciated by myself tonight. My first visit to Central Park and I was quite impressed with the overall experience and friendliness of staff and may I add reasonable food prices. A decent looking race track, although as others have said it was very slick tonight, with hardly any passing after turn 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
