I went out to the garden, and did the weeding. Much more exciting.!

It is not as bad as F1 Car racing--yet !
After a mighty lunch with wine etc, I too drifted off and it wasn't old age causing it !!
What is happening to sport---It is all getting acutely boring..........Is it all "scripted" ??
It is a great pity that Scarborough is not televised.
It would be perfect TV--A small version of the TT is it not ??

Or some of the fantastic action from the Southern 100....125 race, for example. Anything with Ian Lougher in it...the sidecars.....oops, I think that means all the racing! Well, it was all brilliant.

Scarborough- what dates do they race there, then?
Re: Donninton on TV - Anonymous - 14-07-2002
Admittedley the Moto GP race was a bit of a snooze, but the 125 and 250 races were excellent from flag to flag.

Snooze is an understatment it did nothing for our sport,tv cameras get real and televise real road racing EG;SKERRIES and SCARBOROUGH.

60,000 fans turned up at Donnington,so some people like short circuit racing.I've seen plenty of road races that were strung out and very dull.
The email address is real,so that should help make sense of my message.

Your a sensible voice on here...racing doesn't have to be on the roads to be good.Best racing I have seen this year has been on the Irish Short Circuits and recent BSB racing,really good.
