Especially as he's averaging around 6.5 so far this season... another mockery of the rolling averages 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BARNES Posted July 9 Report Share Posted July 9 (edited) Had my first visit to Northampton this evening and was pleasantly surprised. Track seems to be improving with lines and passing compared to what I had heard. Decent enough facilities aswell. As for the home riders, it was nice to see Zager and Batchelor get their acts together as the meeting went on, unlike the skipper who frustrated after winning his first. Nice bump coming out of turn 4 looks like it’ll provide some home advantage! Edited July 9 by BARNES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralMelchett Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Finally made it last night - very impressed with the set up there - the track was bladed etc after heat 2 and then after that produced some really good racing. Its a shame its a 2 hr drive for me as I would be tempted to go more regularly but its a great set up and sat in the grandstand on a warm sunny evening watching a 45-45 draw with quite a lot of overtaking I was very happy! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time for me, too. Very impressed with the set-up -- well-marshalled parking, friendly staff, good infrastructure with food/drink/merchandise etc all readily availableand an interesting programme. Problems with the new material on track led to a loooong delay, but communication with the crowd was good and the racing afterwards was excellent. Interesting to see a lot of fans, both adults and children, in Foxes shirts. Encouraging to see this response as the club tries to build its own fan base and not rely on Coventry and Peterborough supporters getting their fix, welcome as they no doubt are. The blue/orange/white colours are striking and the fox logo is a very clever design, immediately attractive to children but with plenty of character and detail to swing adults too. Full marks on that one. If I have a mild criticism it is that the stadium comes over as a tad functional at the moment. Even the odd tub of flowers would help there. But overall a really good and very welcome addition to the sport. Special kudos to the very young and very diligent litter pickers in action on bends one and two, they were great! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
