The band, Brighton based, The Move-Ons will commence playing at 6pm, the same time that the gates open, and will continue to play till the engines warm up.
I have been told that the first race will be at 7.38pm...................
Got to allow for the usual chit chat from the sky presenters - state of the track etc.
Just seen the forecast on Meridian for Saturday, very heavy rain, thunder and lightning. Sometimes this corner of Sussex does miss the bad weather, if not is their any provision for which day it will be rerun if it is rained off. _________________ Supporting the Eagles through the good times as well as the bad
Forecast on Metcheck looks very good for Saturday. Maybe it is the start of the " Barbecue Summer" that someone promised us a while back. what happened to that?
Predictible I guess... but I cant see past a Swindon/Wolves final.
Coventry/Wolves Final for me although an each way bet on the Eagles Pair as an outside bet. Unfortunately I will miss this meeting so Good luck to the Eagles hope its a great night. _________________ A Founder Member of the Home Straight Lukas Dryml Appreciation Society!

With Stead now in place of Zagar I don't think Swindle look as good, Poole have a very good chance I think, as much as it pains me to say so! _________________ Check out my Pic's site. Click on WWW below...
To be honest as long as it is a good meeting, and nobody gets hurt, I am not worried who wins the meeting. It is possible we could get other drop-outs, depends on whether any riders get injured. Would love to see the Eagles pairing doing well, good luck to Davy and Lewis. _________________ Supporting the Eagles through the good times as well as the bad
likely to be the last time many of the riders are seen at arlington it would seem ---- so enjoy it , treasure it , put it in your bumper fun book . wish them and the fans well .
I have been told its 23 races - 20 heats, two semi finals and a final, although I had orignally been told it was 22 heats two semis and a final although if you look at the super sevens page its 18 heats two semi finals and a final.I was told that the first race is starting at 7.38 and that Sky are only transmitting until 10pm.
So it could be one of the three or something completely different!
will be 9 pairs obviously , but each pair willnot meet all the other pairs otherwise they will all have 8 rides . think 5 is the limit . but missing riding against certain pairs , or riding against others would be an advantage . so the system is flawed . in the premier league the final
has been whittled down by having previous rounds to probably 6 , then each pair have five rides and meet all the other finalists . who drew this formula up --- noddy in toyland or the bspa
