KevH 257 Posted June 16, 2017 Question for Philip. You've recently introduced a 'Track Spotlight' feature in the international section which I've very much enjoyed reading. The feature (sadly) doesn't appear every week which is a shame. What are your plans for this feature? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paper and water do not mix very well UNDERSTAND that but not why the postman couldn't keep it dry. If that happens again call Dave on 020-83351113 and will send a replacement. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted June 17, 2017 You see quite a few magazines on the shelves in polythene/plastic covers & I subscribe to motorcycle magazines which, also, come in their protective cover keeping them dry. Is it a cost issue to keep them in paper covers rather than the cling film type or is it environmental? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigerowl 630 Posted June 18, 2017 Can we drop the celebrity fan feature please? It got embarrassing after Graham Stuart and the darts player Scott something or other. Someone who plays in a tribute band or cuts the grass at a sports stadium isn't a celebrity. Great magazine otherwise. It's the only thing (apart from this site) which keeps me up to date with the sport. I will go back to watch it the promoters ever decide to drop the doubling up / doubling down fiasco. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That particular feature is desperate. I assume it's trying to portray speedway as cool by having such 'famous' followers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
