Pairs and CLRC

[Midgetracer]

What will the format of Wednesday's meeting be? Clearly, all the pairs cannot race against each other-that would require 36 heats.

Also, what are the admission prices?

Admission is £25 as set by the BSPL. No concessions. That’s why I’ll get the Pirates TV stream at £13.99 which is usually quite well presented. Wonder if the early start at 7.00 will catch some out.

Daylight robbery, how do they justify putting their price up? Is there any extra production costs.

Surely they would sell more streams than normal given it's a shared event and midweek.

By comparison the SGP Challenge only cost me £8.79, almost half the price

As it's a shared event probably put price up due to this, but imo it's only a few pounds more, but could put people off buying the stream, and it looks like Poole trying to cash in, when they are probably not

It is more races and a shared event, admission has gone up so stream has gone up as well.

Forecast is good. Dry overcast day so better for track prep. Let’s hope the racing is as good as last week.

You would expect so but, most track guys would prefer a little lite rain until mid afternoon then do the track work.

You do know you the best riders in the league will be on display and there are 40% more heats than a regular meeting. Worth at least a few quid more surely?

1st of today's cry offs , batch in for jeppersen who's still feeling after effects of a shoulder injury. Probably won't be the last change today

You do know it's on the worse race track in the league. And the team you support is only on track 4 to 6 times

That's why many pilots fans won't be there, and season tickets not valid either, just imagine pilots fans cheering on a race with Comets V Bandits or scunny V Redcar 🤣

Hopefully the bloody rain stops soon. The dry forecast is wrong.

[Steve Shovlar]

Only drizzle clearing soon. Don’t think it will affect anything other than give the track natural watering.

Yes but as I primarily attend Premiership meetings the level of rider is not the attraction - it would be to support the Championship team I follow but they are only in a small number of heats (less than a league meeting obviously) so that dissuades the stream purchase.  The added cost has killed any chance of me convincing myself it'd be worth it.

I was going to get down to Dorset for this but since there has been showers over the last few days I fear the dust might be a little to damp for me, after being used to warm dry dust over the last couple of months cold damp dust is not for me.

Is this meeting still on, weather ok?
