Shrub 1,109 Posted December 13, 2020 I'm reasonably confident that I've tripped and fell over something at my local speedway stadium and that no one has tripped over one of these at any other track in the country. To give some context it was back in the 80's when fans and riders packed the bar after meetings and living within walking distance it was always around midnight before tottering out of a very dark, unlit stadium and car park. Any guesses? If not, answer tomorrow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
