TotallyHonestJohn 3,078 Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) These went in the wrong way round as this is standing on the back straight looking at bends 3 and 4 the picture previous was taken from the roadway at the top of the bend but you can see where the roadway is and the ramp at the end of the banking Edited June 30, 2022 by TotallyHonestJohn Edited for accuracy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TotallyHonestJohn 3,078 Posted June 30, 2022 This is looking directly across from the back straight opposite to where the start tapes and the referees box will be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would definitely up the average age of an NDL team that's for sure but I still think he could show these youngsters a thing or two... Lines up alongside Armo, Tony Atkin, Hurry and Complin. Wouldn't be bottom in the NDL 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lefty 1,268 Posted June 30, 2022 Last few pages reminded me of Wolves getting a roasting at Blantye in 1981. Steve Lawson and Cribby gave a master class of how to attack a 'dodgy prepared track'. Does Cribby still get his ice bike out these days. That would be great to see at the New Worky! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TotallyHonestJohn 3,078 Posted July 1, 2022 This is the home straight looking from the 4th to the 1st bend 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TotallyHonestJohn 3,078 Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Back to where we started on the raised viewing area on the home straight and no one will be allowed at the fence round the track there will/should be a secondary fence at the top of the banking... no one will be allowed at the fence around the track viewing will be at least a minimum of 3 meters above the track and approximately 5 meters back on the home straight and 10 metres back on the back straight and hopefully that's clear enough for Mr Nil Imagination @Steve Shovlar Edited July 1, 2022 by TotallyHonestJohn missed out key words 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Another poster who posts abuse but when I am proved correct doesn’t have the humility to admit they were wrong. No surprise to be honest. Shame he can’t live up to his name. Edited July 1, 2022 by Steve Shovlar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
