12 September looks like it.

The council, parts of noise regulations.

Tickets were printed by BSI, pretty sure it's the same wording they use for Cardidf too.

Tai wouldnt have been allowed a TS if done a joker on programmed ride, Rosco played the tactics perfectly TS and joker at same time in place of a weaker rider on good gate.

Yes but there was loads of people saying it was crap shape, too fast, single line, etc. The fact was the rain yesterday made it too grippy which led to very fast times, tonight the times were 2-3 seconds slower and showed what a difference to the racing makes when the inside line isn't so grippy.

Those that were so critical of the track last night are very quiet tonight. Bwitcher is the track still too fast????

They putting some extra speakers up in front of East stand now I been told.

A German

Yep that why I recommended it at Cardiff, which one did you go to?

The rain didn't make it 'bad', it made it too 'perfect' it was so grippy the track record kept getting broken but that doesn't lead to good racing as the inside was so grippy, need outside to have more grip then inside. What annoyed me was then every 4 heats they dragged the dirt back to inside, spiked the inside and watered it making it grippy all meeting.

IT wasn't slick it was far too grippy! After all that rain the track was very grippy which meant for most of the meeting the inside line was fastest meaning very fast times (original track record was broken in nearly every heat) but poor racing until inside line started to slicken off and dirt moved wider.

Track is fine, been dry since 2.00 and quite warm now, they just didn't want to run practise in wet conditions and then have limited time to relay it.

Not going to be any more rain now. They will let track dry naturally then wouldn't surprise me if they watering it before start time.

Which one? If you mean the Sportcity one then yes it's a 10 minute walk.

Glad practise has been cancelled, the track won't be bad as only been drizzle all morning but would have been lot of work to get it right again for tonight in short period of time. Getting brighter now.

Will USA get 10 points or even 5?

Something going on within USA team with Wells and Hancock now stepping down? Really annoyed about that, was really looking forward to seeing Hancock.

Athletics training, they have done British trials there in past on TV for Olympics etc About 16 years ago when they were building the stadium for commonwealth games it was talked about as a possible location for new speedway stadium.

Teams are not confirmed until after practise tomorrow.

For those travelling tomorrow for the race off, especially from the south give yourselves lots of extra time as the M6 northbound is extremely busy on a Friday afternoon especially between junctions 16 & 19. The M56 also gets very busy heading into Manchester between the airport at J5 to the M60. Electronic signs on the motorway will direct to park and ride parking at Etihad stadium. They are using the Blue car park (marked blue below), I suggest coming off the M60 at J23 (Ashton under Lyne) and following A635/A662 towards Manchester, then turn right onto A6010 past the stadium and car park is on the left. Postcode for satnav is M11 3FF. Buses will be leaving every 10 minutes from 1.30pm and take 10 minutes (2 miles) and drop off right outside stadium. Those that bought parking permits (now sold out) will park at the school marked in green below on Pink Bank Lane. Kirkmanshulme Lane will be closed in front of the stadium, as most people will be coming down A57 Hyde Road turn left onto Mount Road and then right onto Stanley Grove and then right onto Pink Bank Lane, then left onto Kirkmanshulme Lane car park on the left. You can also access Pink Bank Lane from the A6 end of Kirkmanshulme Lane. Buses 201, 203, 204 go from Piccadilly in Manchester city centre and stop on Hyde Road near stadium, they are very frequent. There are trains from Piccadilly to Belle Vue station but these are very infrequent, possibly once an hour at weekend. Use the following link to plan public transport http://www.traveline-northwest.co.uk/journeyplanner/enterJourneyPlan.do Food and drink are not allowed to be brought into stadium, the stewards do bag searches when entering like they do at Cardiff. Waitiing for clarification on air horns. No Smoking or vaping allowed anywhere in the stadium.
