Fair post & we need everyone pulling together to keep the championship product going as it's the best speedway option on the uk 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The referee's verdict is final, so might aswell wait for the referee's call,,, cos anything else might be what you think you had seen? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Few years back I, before the Facennas , i was summoned to a meeting at the track and asked to describe the race more and not just say from the gate , even if the race was just from the gate . 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racin Jason 72 1,283 Posted May 9, 2022 The track has obviously been neglected for several years and is badly worn. I’m sure the track curator would have been asking for more shale to build it back up but I suspect would have been told they can’t afford it. now they can’t afford not to replace the track surface.
