But 5pm is getting towards the evening so hopefully it will be fine. A decent, well run operation would have no problem at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not just at Poole though, Kent had problems last week in fact it was delayed by 30 mins to sort it and Plymouth had to sort out a bump in the first bend according to speedway updates.

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 29, 2021 Track is very very bad. A hole has appeared on apex third and fourth bend. Shanes hit it and his wheel collapsed. Riders all on track staring at it. Interval now taken. Lots of kicking of shale and standing about. Not good but not unexpected considering last two meetings. On arrival track looked like a battlefield. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 29, 2021 This looks off. Every rider and trackman gawping at hole nothing being done. Lots of shale kicking nothing more. Big crowd not going to be happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AFCB Wildcat 1,362 Posted August 29, 2021 Where did that big pile of shale dumped on the grass by the tractor before the start come from. Did that cause the hole? It's right by the area they're working on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 29, 2021 Thats Frankly disgraceful to be honest. This will cost the club massively. They have dug a long groove and are raking out the hole. Dumping loads of shale on the grass. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
