The club is a shambles but unfortunately the governing body that lets them get away with it are also a shambles. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeneralMelchett 504 Posted April 21 (edited) It'll be interesting to see if it rains tomorrow! Given how off the pace they generally were on Thursday its seems extremely convenient. Met office currently has no rain for tomorrow whilst another one suggests 'drizzle' - considering Sheffield ran with the threat of rain (with some in the afternoon and then later in the meeting) last Thursday this seems very pre-emptive!

NKI has started the season really bad. Lawson is a big improvement. It was going to strengthen us. I think there might be something else going on.

Rain forecast tomorrow meaning no time to prepare the track after stock cars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris116 756 Posted April 21 9 minutes ago, Fozzie4388 said: Has there been a stockcar meeting at the track by any chance this weekend? The latest announcement on the BSPL website mentions a stock car meeting but it was only smaller Banger classes plus 2L and 1300 Saloons not the big F1 cars which do rip up a track. Unless the track was very wet before the racing started it should not have suffered anything that could not be put right in 24 hours. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 586 Posted April 21 The BBC forecast is far onerous that that of the Met Office……Luckily for Buster! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szkocjasid 3,090 Posted April 21 This decision really is indefensible, even if Lynn have found a forecast that doesn't look good (BBC) the fact that another (Met Office) shows a lovely day, means one of the forecasts has to be wrong. So with that level of doubt, they can't just choose to follow the forecast of their choice. The only option is to race the meeting - unless a thunderstorm comes first! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
