The track wasn’t great for the juniors either I believe, I heard Seth Norman had a big off due to track conditions,  I think they put more shale on after the juniors but then due to the moisture it became too grippy, so they bladed it right back which then exposed the holes in the surface, 

Isn't he riding Friday nite and travelling back Saturday, think that's the reason of a 5pm start

Absolutely mate, they need to learn to work together, I believe dean has been impressed with the speedway this season, and it’s all thanks to him that we even have a speedway team at Northampton, and to be honest there has been speedway after stock cars throughout the summer, I just think the rain didn’t help matters 

Last heat decider and the tractor would suddenly appear!!😆 I remember one televised meeting with the tractor going over the starting gates in circles ready for the next race, and their opponents team manager going mental!!!😁

Obviously - just trying to make a point 🙂

To be fair to the stock cars, there wouldn't even be a speedway track without them. 😉 What you have to bear in mind is that the 3 day meeting was planned before speedway was even confirmed for this season, and was a major championship meeting for 2 different formulas with many competitors from overseas. It couldn't just be rearranged to accommodate a speedway event a few days later.  The stock car promoter worked very hard on the track over the weekend. After the Saturday event finished at around 7.30pm he was working on the track until the early hours of Sunday morning. The rain on Sunday certainly didn't help matters. Funnily enough, several people commented to me over the weekend about the 'speedway dip' on the home straight, so the damage works both ways.
