Are they deliberately trying to wind punters up? I've seen more tractor racing than speedway racing at BP so far this season! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did not see the Ipswich or the Redcar matches but I was more than happy with the racing at the other two meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's a question I do keep asking myself... habit I suppose. I haven't been to 2 of the 4 so far this season, perhaps I should stop going, what do you think? Yes the track record did go, but then if I remember correctly the tractor had to come out for an unplanned track grade. If you're into watching fast times I suppose it's great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mac101 1,201 Posted April 11, 2019 Leicester’s track will get better every week ,Stewart comes down a few days before and along with a few dedicated helpers are making improvements every week and he stays on till after the practice day on the Sunday to get it ready for the following week there are a few areas he has been working on to try and get it right for good racing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a trek across town and then another 30 odd miles but generally worth the effort and expense. BP is about a mile up the road from where I live... just can't get enthused though Just now, mac101 said: Leicester’s track will get better every week ,Stewart comes down a few days before and along with a few dedicated helpers are making improvements every week and he stays on till after the practice day on the Sunday to get it ready for the following week there are a few areas he has been working on to try and get it right for good racing well unless they cut away at the inside line each week the track ain't never going to get any better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
