Still a lot better than the vast majority of World Finals - and we have proof of that...

Is that what you're interested in? Or are you just interested in complaining because we can't control the weather?

I just love how, every couple of weeks during the summer, the same mob surface on here to complain about EVERY GP - yet they still insist on watching (and having their say).

Then he'd have bugger all to whine about...

I'm really sorry we let the weather get in the way...

When you get rain like that, there is no magic wand you can wave; you have to RIDE the track into better shape, and that takes a few races.

Okay, we're back...

Now we've lost the stream! Says it's been blocked!

The online stream is fine...

I've often said that because the tracks need a few races to settle, juniors should do a bunch of laps before the racing starts. With the weather today, I really think that would have helped...

Could make it interesting - as well as boring... Will Mr. Morris want to water the track?

Something weird going on, eh? There are a bunch of other 'Look at Life' documentaries on YouTube, but not that one.

Wow! I wish I could watch that... EDIT: It looks like there are several showings of the documentary - although it doesn't show the one listed! https://tv24.co.uk/p/look-at-life-riding-it-rough-gyinwc And there are compilation DVD's available...

Ta muchly! You are incredible!

Any streams available, please?

Yeah, I forgot 'Stars'... Still, you can't beat Doncaster. Two years, two names, two designs/colours, and not one rider appearing in both years!

Ah, yes! Well spotted! Panthers was the only one I'm not familiar with...

Not sure why I thought of this, but which British teams have had the most nicknames? Sunderland were the Saints and Gladiators, but I know that Oxford were the Cheetahs, Rebels, and poxy Silver Machine. Long Eaton may have the record as Rangers, Archers, Invaders, and "Nottingham" Outlaws... Any ideas?

Must admit, that is probably one of the most even for GP venues.

Definitely...

Yeah, he came up with a bunch of nicknames and monikers - usually alliterative - just for effect!

As was Buddy "The Bud Man" Robinson...

Thank you for that! I was thinking back, and I was sure that the Ace of Aces was on a hill. You couldn't see the top bend from the bottom of the hill...

And I still haven't found anything about 'Onandoff' Johnson... Perhaps there's something about him in the "Speedway Museum" thread???

I thought we'd covered this before...
