dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,716 Posted February 23, 2017 The stocks have a free entry practice 6pm til 10pm this Saturday. If the weather is ok I may pop along to take a look at how the track changes look... 👀 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted February 24, 2017 So how come they have a practice that can be watched but speedway can't. That's speedwayist 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travertine 34 Posted February 25, 2017 Ever since the Witches dropped out of the Elite they have looked to be potential Champions but as yet have never delivered, will 2017 be the year? That's true to a degree, but this season seems particularly encouraging for Witches fans. However, you only need to go back a year to see that this wasn't always the case - the 2016 edition looked very poor, and so it proved until changes were made. Best of luck of to all the team, and stay safe! Hope all Witches fans enjoy the season! Not long to go ................ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,716 Posted February 26, 2017 All the kerb down and track relaid and level Bruv? Did the shape look noticeably different?looked all finished on 1&2 - stadium was only open to fans upto that point (stands fenced off). Assume any work on 3&4 is completed as well but cant confirm. The entry to opening corner is very different, the exit less so to my eye. Wouldve liked a birds eye view from the stand but that will gave to wait til opening night! Certainly the difference from the original 300m track before the first changes is HUGE! Can only be positive IMO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,318 Posted February 26, 2017 Excellent stuff thanks for the details looking forward to seeing it. Having just seen the sad news of the Bees I suddenly feel even more fortunate to be looking forward to another season! Sad times. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,318 Posted February 27, 2017 Such a shame to now see a young British lad in Sargeant without a club in either league. I know it's a numbers game putting a team together, but I think he's very unfortunate not to have been asked back at Foxhall this year. IMO he handled the tricky number 2 position very well and racked up the bonus points. With the nature of the sport, I'm sure there will be an opportunity somewhere for him at some point.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,716 Posted February 27, 2017 Sarj not having a place anywhere in either league is a travesty. With the way it always goes though there is bound to be a place for him quite quickly with injuries etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,716 Posted March 6, 2017 Race suits to be unveiled at the P&P. Personally I liked last years although would like to see a little bit more blue somewhere. And so long as they all match please! 😲 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
