CardinalSin 346 Posted April 10, 2015 Comparing Somerset to Ipswich, The tracks are the same width, if the home straights are overlaid then the back straight of Somerset would be the stock car track at Ipswich.... makes sense? Nope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted April 10, 2015 Id say Mike Bacon has made a pudding using a dozen eggs when only 3 were needed and that The Scotsman is just a miserable foreigner! wink Boro are obviously his southern team as proved by his 2 programme bricks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted April 10, 2015 Gotta give it to Mike though.. He has certainly made it sound brilliant.. maybe Chris should give him a job as head of marketing, the place will be rammed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Much respect Mr Bruv. Not many people read every word in the programme! You'll have noticed the heat 1 sponsor too! My southern team was a choice from Lakeside, Rye House, Ippo, Peterborough or Mildenhall. From a racing preference it was between the last two and I opted for Peterborough. For some strange reason I have never seen a decent meeting at Ippo and very few at Rye. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For some strange reason I have never seen a decent meeting at Ippo and very few at Rye. Totally opposite for me. My partner comes from Bury st Edmunds so whenever we travel there to see her family, we always take in an Ippo meeting. Probably see 2 or 3 meetings a season, and I've yet to see a poor one! Only been since 2013 mind and haven't been this year yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
