Following on from the lock thread, this is good news. Well over 2m, young and plays more like Retallick than Bird.

How did they get nthat past the Residents Association. SPeedway there is restricted to a very finite number of times they can activate the floodlights so the granting of a permit to use the Springs at night for this must have snuck through and caught them on the hop. No doubt all the NIMBYs will be consulting their lawyers to get the fixture canned.

They've got about 6 hours.....

Maximum allowable noise limit at Springs is 89 decibels. I am sure both teams will make sure the game is not exciting enough that the crowd make more than that amount of noise...
