Reider Eide was also a pretty decent longtrack rider , i remember watching him win the first longtrack meeting a couple of miles up the road at Haldon in 1978 , against a damn decent field. Not sure about his results in Europe though.

Not sure anyone saw that coming , not even the most optimistic Wolves fans would have seen that coming. Quicker out the gate and wanted it more.

Personally i think riders get duped by tuners. You can stick an engine on a dinner plate. It doesnt consist of many parts , and there only so much you can do with them staying within the rules. The difference between the tuners is wafer thin , not enough to make a difference on the track.

Kelvin says they've had a lot of water (rain) on the track. So why the hell did they have a hose pipe watering down the 1st and 2nd bends ? They must be bonkers.

Just glad i had the privilege of watching him most Monday nights for several seasons. You cant compare riders from different era's , its like trying to compare Pele with Messi. Both greats but you cannot compare. Cant be bothered to check , but didnt he in one season only get beaten 7 times , 2 of those were for engine failures ? 11.8 something average . Crazy. Best in his era , no dangers.

Like the GP's , i've always said they should have some junior races before a meeting to send the shale around. Can give them the benefit tonight looking at the weather forecast.

Hammering down in Exeter now , heading up Burnham way.

Anyone seen any racing yet ? Buster needs to get rid of that 80% clay rubbish , been the most dire meeting i've seen for many a year.

Well you aint getting any younger.......

Covers are fine for light rain or the odd heavy shower. Torrential rain not so. Water has this habit of getting anywhere.

Can i swear ?

Newman +2 v Wilson Dean looks good. Plus he should get 6 rides. Thoughts ?

Why so ? He might not be 100% fit , but from a neutral perspective , he's lost his bottle. His second ride was nothing short of embarrasing , he made the gate , but as soon as he heard a rider close behind him going into the 3rd bend he hoisted the white flag by casually moving wide to let both KL riders through.(it was in front of me, it was deliberate imo).

Probably the easiest win ever. All over after Robbo's 2nd ride. Result !

Every chance Robbo could have 6 rides tonight , he's 10/11 against Perks +4 on bet365. I'm having some of that
