But you do get a roof at Belle Vue.

Who wants to be standing on the roof to view.

When asked what the track length was on TwitterX British Speedway (surprisingly) replied 310m... and not the 396m that is stated elsewhere 🤷‍♂️

Someone requires a new tape measure

Northampton Foxes  co-promoter Paul Hunsdon was the guest speaker at the NSSC last night.

With news breaking just before the meeting that the venue had passed the SCB Inspection the atmosphere was really positive.

Paul said;

Tickets can be purchased on-line or on entry to the track by card or cash.

Large free car park.

OK to take camping chairs etc.

Sensible entry checks. No bottles but OK with food and soft drinks, tea etc.

Large bar, food outlets and seating for 750 otherwise large grass banks.

They dont want any riders bottling it that’s why strictly no bottles

The 396m was apparently the barrier

310m is the kerb (or 1m from the kerb which I believe is the official way to measure)

Indeed - I even went on GoogleMaps and did a rough measure of the inside line, which was about 300m, so 310m must be it. No idea why Brafield is given as 396m ... the tarmac track at Foxhall is listed as 385m, which must be the inside line.
