What a way our season is going.I have put myself through hell to watch the Stars at times,now i'm wondering if ever it was worth it. I have a bottle of gin here Tel, but it's ice cold cider for me tonight. Starting at 6pm. By half 9 i will have to look on the updates to see what went on...

Rob B 1,245 Posted July 11, 2022 Let’s address the usual moans first The crowd, will probably be low as usual for TV meetings. Pre-sale seats are down around 30% on last week, but Belle Vue have offered 300 free tickets to local community groups but unknown what the uptake will be. The track, it’s been 29 degrees today, they have been soaking the track, pictures I’ve seen shown it flooded. Will still be warm evening so track bound to be wet still to start with to avoid dust but give it 4-5 heats for a dirt line to materialise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
