great upload this when racing was racing was good then great track to now gone

Used to love this place as a kid. We used to go all the time and we also used to race our greyhound’s here too

i miss this track so much

Great stuff. Brings back many happy memories. Thanks

Willie Harrison was my idol as a young boy .

I lived in Sandiacre, my parents always used to take me to the stock cars. Absolutely loved it,Coventry too and Skegness. Crying shame what's happened, so many memories.

Dave berisford sadly passed away this week

Proper racing

I thought it was bang out of order by John Lund , he was at least a lap down after his earlier crash . So nothing to gain except injury and an expensive repair for Wainman junior

Fantastic Video!! Brings back soooooo many memories of my childhood!! David Baker (and the rest of the Bakers) are my dads cousins so we would regularly visit Birmingham Wheels and Hednesford Hills to watch the Baker Boys and later Birmingham Wasps!!

Do you have 640

What did it say on that airplane banner?

Us commentators are usually looking at the wrong turn as well. I recall one meeting at Northampton when not ten seconds after I mentioned Tom Harris and Dan Johnson had been feuding one followed the other in flat out and I had looked away from them. I was so furious with myself I smashed the microphone!

It's frustrating isn't it, when I was doing it I was so mad at myself when I missed something huge like cars launching up our grass banks and stuff lol Only way I could combat it was buying go-pros and getting a good wide shot so I didn't have the temptation to pan with what I thought was the action and miss the real actual action lol

I still remember the F1's ripping out a girder infront of my dad and I on turns 1 and 2 great memories of that track.

👍

Old school , loving this , many a Sunday watching as a kid 😊

Takes me back.... many happy Sunday afternoons at Hartlepool and Aycliffe Stadium.

Please tell me you still have day 2 . I’m the driver of that funny shaped car.. 😂 660 (Morris Oxford) aka Bombay taxi.

If only it were still open. Great days.

Of course, in the early day those aerofoils or whatever they call them on the roofs of the cars were not used! I have some old b&w prints (well-worn now) taken with an old box camera of some of the cars in the pits in the seventies. I must try and get them digitalised. There's a book about Long Eaton Speedway - bot nothing about the Stox. Occasionally Stock Car racing featured on ITV's Sunday sports programme but as far as I know it was never filmed at long Eaton - usually Northampton (Brafield) or elsewhere. The stadium went into liquidation (well it's owners did) in 1995 so all racing ended and it lay idle till it was bulldozed in 2010 - a very sad day.

Closed 1995. Bulldozed for housing 2010. I was there in the early 70s - the glory days.

Always found this hilarious!

Love how you choose exactly the correct theme tunes for each slide show - the rolling laps tunes for each track!

Remember that race well just didn't have the power

A good nights racing.

Don’t know why John Lund spit his dummy like that, it was a fair move from FWJ.

<B 260

The MC was Richie "Madcap" Monkhouse, he always took great pride in winding up the drivers!

Still one of my favorite races EVER, a proper bumper fest!

Great video as always.Do you guys still go to watch Stock Cars?.

I loved that track.

I live down the road from where the track use to be.. We need another NorthWest Track... Esp now Odsal is coming back.

I was at this meeting it was my first ever visit to Brandon it would be great if the place could be brought back.

The weekends i wasted, watching this. I'll never get them back.

Fantastic, I was stood right behind you at the back of the stand. Never missed a meeting great times.

Getting us through lockdown these cheers DJH Videos 👌

Good upload mate. Best track ever.

Orite bud got a question for you ..did stinkbridge used to be called hartlepool ram brigade ??

Many thanks for all the video's lads.

I remember the old stock buses coming to LE as early 90s my mum and dad ran the off licence on corner of Recreation Street opposite Tenants Chippy. We loved Wednesday and Saturday nights. Nottingham road was always full of double parked cars each side the road. We could hear the stocks in Toton and sometimes if the wind blew right, in Sawley too. It was a very "community' thing for LE and put us on the map. Speedway too built our town for many years. Shame it's all gone 😒 now we just concrete jungle with a potential stupid bread knife on its way to cut LE in two that we don't need. Just electrify the MML and make do with what we have to save the Biodiversity of our town and countryside.

I remember it well.

A fantastic film--so many memories of PROPER stock car racing, and a wonderful track.

Awesome. I was there. Good times.

Lights go at 12:00

949 dave coupland 'coup' still going strong

Good to have films like this. Go to the site now and all you`ll find is another bloody Morrisons store.

I was standing not far off you. Best track ever. Good post.
