Championship Pairs - Sep 1st

Recommended Posts

If Richie Worrall has pulled out then Plymouth might as well remove themselves from the competition as Kyle Howarth can’t win it in his own as cant see much support from either Trigger or Pearson if that’s all that they have left

8 home winners in 23 years suggests there is some advantage too be had.

Thats a 30% success for the host but in those 23 events was the 4-3-2 system used in all of them.

Would still be an upgrade on last year - Ben Morley and a guest (Roynon)

4-3-2-0 was used in 1997 so it looks like the answer is yes.

Supposed to be a hell of a downfall at 16:00 according to the Met Office, before I get a ticket, is the track likely to cope with that?

Met office is showing me a mere 30% chance of a brief (but heavy) shower.

Don't forget even if there is rain Matt will be along with the 'magic' leaf-blower.

I'm confident this will be on.

It would have to be a monsoon for it to be called off. App I use has no rain after 11am today. 

Amazes me that all these weather Apps use the same information and all usually give different forecasts.

There was some heavy showers from 3am but none since 6:30. I'm about a mile from the track.

Got my ticket now, hope it's better than the Brummies visit!
Last time I think I ate at a Beefeater nearby, which wasn't too bad.  Any other suggestions?
