Got my tickets for the South stand as prefer to be on the straight and won't pay the grandstand prices. However, I thought the East stand prices weren't bad. You can't get most Premier League tickets for these prices. Next week is the Cheltenham Festival (4 days). A comparable ticket to the South stand is £90 per day and over £100 on the Friday. Their hotel prices are way over £300 per night. They get an average of about 50,000 a day. Yes, it's different! We all love speedway and to see the best in the world take each other on at the NSS is worth it to me for 2 nights. It's expensive, but in line. Wroclaw is brilliant also, signs are all around the town and it's great, but it's great cos they have a great track also. Lots love Prague (not been to the SGP) and I like the city, but the track is in general average (not always). I go for good racing and need to go to Torun which if prepped right is also excellent. I suppose we can all put a value on any trip, but one things for sure like everything in the UK. Prices will only go up. Most of us have a bit of disposable income and we all have decisions to make on how we spend it. 👍

Only saw Les twice when I was a young lad on holiday at Weymouth in 1981. It was an Inter League challenge v Birmingham and he scored a 12 point max beating Hans Nielsen who my dad had told me was going to be a superstar (he got that right). I May be wrong but think he got a max in the other meeting I saw either week before or after? It always stuck with me that meeting and Les. RIP

There should be no qualifying. I do not want to see Bewley, Zmarzlik and Kurtz racing each GP off the perceived best gates. A draw makes the whole meeting more interesting. I get why they did it, but please go back.
