Give over you killjoy, they guys enjoyingnhis racing, he's Mr entertainer. Nothing wrong with it. BTW Kemp is class

Absolutely. That was how Speedway should be last night. A massive crowd, without doubt the biggest of the season so far - so much so I ventured to the back straight to view as my usual spot was packed. Meeting ran through perfectly without needless delays. Even with an interval after heat 12 the meeting was Finished by 9 o'clock. As I've also said previously, that is the best I've seen the track prepared this season too. Great stuff.

Couldn't agree more, CR. Every now and then I walk out of a meeting feeling that British speedway is still alive and kicking, and that was how I felt last night.

Think all tracks should do it if it improves the track and ultimately the racing. Just be a bit more discreet about it.

Excellent meeting last night. Big crowd, well run, and chips at Burnham on sea. Perfect day out!

A couple of points. As DWP pointed out it is illegal to “dispose” of oil in an inappropriate manner. Disposing of oil on the track is inappropriate unless it was caused by machinery failure, in which case best efforts should be made to contain the spillage and then clean it up and properly dispose of the contaminated material. On the subject of the “Castrol R” smell, this was created because “old school” engines had total loss oil systems whereby oil was pressure fed into the engine and then burnt within the engine and emitted through the exhaust system. Today’s engines use a a recirculating system and so the oil is not burnt and thus does not cause the “Castrol R” effect in tha same way that it did. In the interests of speedway as a whole, I think it might be wise to stop all discussions relating to oil spillage and let the club carry out an internal investigation.

That’s uncalled for - but not unexpected now your team are winning - the cockiness has returned

The sport needs more entertainers like him not less. Whoever he has rode for has loved seeing him celebrate like he does.Crowd reacts to it,which makes for a better atmosphere.The better the atmosphere,the more he does to celebrate.Hope he continues to do it. Great come back from the lads last night. There's a great spirit amongst them right now. Determined to keep that league record in place

Really good set up down there at The Oaktree. Once the track had dried out some good racing, far better than at the Abbey. 7 out of 15 race winners for Swindon, but 14 last places! Bellego flying for 3 races then burnt out 2 clutch plates in final 2. Muesli unbeatable in last 3, almost fencing Holder in heat 15! Batch strangely out of sorts, though he has been excellent all season. Luckily Doyle wasn't racing or they may have hit 60. Rebs deserve to be in playoffs. Never seen so many animals around a stadium, dogs, goats, peacocks, chickens, its a cross between a zoo and motor cycling arena! Friendly bunch of local yokels, apart from result an enjoyable evening. Great support from Wiltshire, bumper crowd. Meeting ran at fast pace, back indoors for 10.30, 70 miles, driving on the motorways.

This ocassion. So correct about all the other ocassions then.

Does this happenat other tracks? Hilarious how so many people spectacularly missed Robert Lambert's point on Twitter. Not sure if it was lack of brain cells or an inability to read properly.

Here is a link to the Echo, where there a load of photos (99) from last nights meeting, including the Harris crash. http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/16392293.chris-harris-walks-away-from-horror-crash-as-in-form-pirates-thrash-kings-lynn/ Very disappointed with NKI and Roberts comments. They were beaten fair and square on a superbly prepared race surface. Some excellent racing, despite the score. Certainly more entertaining than last week! Nothing wrong with the oil, just maybe could have been more subtle about it. There is not a single track in the country that hasnt or still does it. Most tracks pour some oil into the water bowser and then it gets spread more evenly. Nothing to see here.

You make it sound so easy ... So it must be true. I would love to watch Championship level Speedway for £10 to £12 in 2019. But returning to planet Earth ....

IF there is any fine it is more likely to be from outside speedway via council/enviromental agencies There is no justification for a speedway fine or points deduction

FFS Dock points - unbelievable for something that happened after a meeting. Fine them - well yes in this environmentally sensitive age I'd go along with that but only if the money went to the Ben Fund.

Lynn got stuffed - expected There was oil on the track - not expected Shovlar is gloating - expected Situation normal. If only speedway racing was this exciting BTW best wishes to all riders injured last night.

I thought it was a very slick performance!

Heat 8 from last night.

Long before oil catchers on bikes, the oil was dripping from the engines into the track surface. This always helped the shale bind and keep moisture in the surface. Thats where we used to get the infamous 'Castrol R' smell from. Not the engines, but with the shale being moved around. Its nothing new. A few points from last night. Best wishes to Bomber, Ty, and Thomas,hope they are all ok this morning. Proctor gets pulled back for a flyer, quite right, yet Kurtz gets an even bigger flyer, nothing! Really felt for Newman in Ht8. Rode very well indeed, yet some how the referee gives 3rd to MPT on the line.

Usually is with you so I will

What fast one are Poole trying to pull?

Another great performance from the Rebels Photo's from last night Somerset v Swindon Photo's Slideshow Somerset v Swindon Slideshow

Said the same to my Dad that I would mind if he was announced as a Rebel. (as long as he isn't another Suchanek!)

After last night we might as well see if Bacon wants the gig once Nathan has recovered, at least he was putting in some effort. As others have said the horse has bolted, the 'we're waiting to see how the removal of the Rye House scores affects the averages' comment was a load of gollox to keep the easily pleased happy. As much as we laugh at Ford for chopping, changing and showing bugger all loyalty, at least he's trying to do more than win home matches & scrape into the playoffs. After doing a great job the last couple of years CVS has resorted to type, 'do sod all, the season will soon be over'.
