In their defence, I live 20 mins from track and had over 100 ml of rain in previous days of meeting plus track very effected by tidal movemnts so drainage can be probmatic Should of run wide tyred Classes first few heats but they stuck too program with narrow tyred classes first heats.

And there was plenty of time to make it happen and try to make it better

Wheelpacker, sheeps foot and water truck. They also moved the 40 lapper forward to before the last stockcar race.

I could be wrong, and please feel free to correct me 410cowboy, but I don't think he was even at the venue last night. If he wasn't, as I suspect, how he gauged there was no work taking place on the track surface over the course of the evening I have no idea. Barry B

Barry B Correct wasn't at venue, but I picked up my mate who rung said to pick him up after might have been the 3rd midget heat because it was a mess was poor I was wise enough not to waste my money going there. but I picked my mate up who was disgusted in the show and then I watched replay of track. I checked with him and he said seen no track prep in time he was there
