Wolves at Monmore Green are actually.

Crikey, it must've looked even worse in VHS!

That apostrophe in Shanes is superfluous. I've seen others do likewise and am curious as to why.

That fiction certainly suits your user name.

Sad news indeed. His passion for the sport and Speedway Star never wavered. It feels like the end of an era. RIP Phillip.

It's not always about cost. Berwick have covers but haven't used them recently due to having insufficient manpower to manoeuvre them.

I've been to countless grasstracks, the first in 1972. I even competed in a few on my JAP in the 90's. Despite this, I never did and still don't get excited by the sidecars.

I agree. I struggle to see who they appeal to. I see them more as light cars than motorbikes but my car racing fan mates think the opposite hence they fall between 2 stools.

Made exiting easier for those of us who stayed on though. Made a difference with the crowd sizes back then of course.

Start marshal's what? (Apostrophe misuse irks me)

I think that's what the Supernational was in the 1990's. Can't remember how often it was staged and whether it was deemed a success though.

Is it not live on YouTube this season?

At the end of 1959 it was 71.7 set by Derek Timms on 3rd Oct 1959 At the end of 1960 it was still 71.0 as detailed in the previous post

Too much pain in his knee

Great ride from Lambert on a track not known for its passing.

That will be one "small" league then!

Why? Have you heard the noise that stock cars make?

Just this.

Every city has a 100% ethnic percentage even if all white! You mean ethnic minority.

That 'yummy' presenter has a serious speech impediment. She's certainly no Sophie Blake.

What a hypocrite! Which reminds me of when Wimborne MCC wanted to stage their big grastrack meeting, The Whoppa, near Fordingbridge in the New Forest. The locals objected and got their way. Their ringleader was none other than Murray Walker.

Your anti-greyhound stance is your own matter, and others on here may well sympathise, but using it as a stick to beat other sports with will do yourself or your cause no favours.

I have the programme from 17th October 1947, the last meeting of the season. It confirms the 80.2 by Dick Campbell as the record and furthermore it was not broken during this meeting.

Likewise. I was vaccinated at work rather than in a clinic so maybe that's why?

It's not just speedway though. How many Asians do you see competing in or watching any branch of motorsport?
