October Saturday event. Booked tickets online, and left with plenty of time to get there. Arrived over 30 minutes early to be greeted with an enormous queue to get it, which was expected as it was a special event. The issue is however that the queue did not move at any speed and this was apparently caused by the car park being full and all other cars parking on the lane to try to get in. By this time i was stuck on the lane and to cut a long story short we could not move anywhere along the lane as the traffic was blocked in both ways. Total and utter dis-organised chaos, there were no marshalls outside to attempt to direct the traffic and we were absolutely stuck and could not moved in either direction. Drivers and passers by were trying to move the traffic if they cold but it was slow going and took over an hour to travel the few hundred yards to the gate where there was one marshal ushering us away (I explained i had tickets and they said sorry contact Spedworth the owners of the event), Another hour later i had eventually got out of the other end of the lane and totally dejected went home after spending nearly fifty pounds for me and the family to sit in the car for two hours (I only live 5 minutes drive away). Ok i thought i will contact Spedworth who hopefully will realise their mistake and compensate the individuals who could not attend due to their lack in judgement in selling way more tickets than the venue can hold. Emailed them twice with absolutely no reply on either occasion, which is just rude and totally unacceptable. I have been going with my family for years to the races, handing over hundreds, if not thousands of pounds in that time to attend their events, but no more, this is just totally unacceptable behaviour on their behalf to not reply to not just organise something so shambolic, but to then not reply to emails which to be fair were very polite and not disrespectful in any way on my behalf. This was and could be a good place to visit, but don't bother unless you enjoy sitting in a traffic jam for 2 hours and then being turned away from the event you have paid for online and then having no communication from the organisers.

My 1st time bk after about 20years. Great racing. Tho not as good as it used to be. Lasted 2hrs.
Thought having to pay £2 to park was a bit of a piss take. Seeing as all ready paid for are tickets online and there was no mention of parking fee.
Will just park out on the road next time. There few laybys on the road outside.

Went with my family of 4... Wife, 2 children and myself... Also some friends came with their children too..
Banger racing and drive what you bring events.. Along with some junior shunt cars.
£40 to get in for family of 4... Was higher than I expected as outside shows £30 but apparently this is speedway events... Would be great to make it clearer. Good options for food available...
After paying £40 please be aware there is also a car parking fee of £2 and to sit covered a further £1 per person.
Anyways, good evening had... Kids enjoyed it and will be back soon.

A night out for something different at coco car and banging racing, it was a great night with 2 and a half hours of action and trophies being presented, the view was great we stood on the final corner of the track which is undercover in case of rain they had a little shop to buy flags hats etc you could get food and also buy a program for the night. The was plenty of parking on the grass just outside the stadium and exiting did not take long at all. We bought our tickets online and there was a separate que for e tickets which got us through quicker a great night will go again when in the area thrilling exciting and some crashes makes a good night

Imagine a whole football field enclosed and with refrigeration!! Really enjoyed watching our first game of grid iron in this superb stadium. View was good and atmosphere amazing. Food pricey. One thing of concern was lack of public transport to the game. Everyone relies on a car but we didn’t hire one due to driving on other side of road.
One of the highlights of the trip

I want and I visited the race circuit at Arlington to watch speedway. If you like motor racing at all then the speedway is a fascinating sport with very high-speed motorcycles going round an open circuit.
It was good to see the skill of the riders.
I would seriously recommend a visit if you’ve never been to one of these events.

It was quite expensive to get in. £1 to park in a field and £16 each to get in. We went specifically to see the distruction darby and can appreciate that the race has to stop when drivers are in trouble, but in the old days distruction darby was last car moving, but this perticular night it was stopped with half the cars still running, a lot of people were confused and not sure if the race was completed.
The highlight of the day was a young girl from Oxfordshire winning a race in the roocky stock cars :)
Best to take fold up chairs unless you are willing to sit on concret steps/seating and to wear sunglasses to stop the dust getting in your eyes.
