Mr Blobby Posted Friday at 09:52 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 09:52 PM The actually racing was phenomenal, everything else was an utter car crash. From queues to get in, duplicate tickets, tickets for seats that didn’t exist, ridiculous long lines for food and drink, if you joined it on a track grade you’d miss a full section of the meeting and be back for the next track grade. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The water truck was being used to tyre pack. Not water it. so maybe observe better next time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinspeedway Posted Friday at 10:08 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:08 PM Great speedway! Best gp of the year by far. Shame about the organisation with ticket/catering issues as I mentioned before the event. Thought lessons would have been learnt from SON. Well done Bewley 👏 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was Mark Lemon not partly responsible? Same issues as SON thought they would have learnt from then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted Friday at 10:23 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:23 PM British GP at Cardiff was something I looked forward to for weeks. I completely forgot this was even on. Shows how the sport at the top has faded away. flicking through the channels I saw it was on, but too late to start watching it. Luckily SpeedwayRUS on Telegram had it up ten minutes after it had finished it, so I just watched it fast forwarding between heats. Meeting was good with some very good racing at times, especially Bewley at the end. Hopefully I will remember tomorrow. If anyone is interested, SpeedwayRUS (think he has just changed the stream name) has every Polish, Swedish and Premiership match televised online a few minutes after it has ended. Download Telegram, search for this channel and watch speedway out your ears. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damosuzuki Posted Friday at 10:48 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 10:48 PM Fantastic GP. The racing was top class and the atmosphere was fantastic. However, the catering was an effing shambles. Why they never had additional stalls for soft drinks etc is beyond me. It was fine after the beer ran out right enough. Much, much better than Cardiff imo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want tomorrow to be just as good as tonight and there's every chance, despite however much rain there is, that track can cope with a lot. My comment about things being different tomorrow night was not in any way negative, the track has had great meetings following rain. I suppose I was thinking aloud about who I'll back to win, I backed Brady tonight, close but no cigar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
