Dickie Head 247 Posted September 30, 2017 How long before Christina gets a GP? Has regularly proved her worth at FIM events overseas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsunami 10,219 Posted September 30, 2017 Even I've done the program Filling the prog is quite important in speedway, it addsup immensely to the excitement! Maybe thats where we fail regarding future audience???... And then some people laugh at fans being preoccupied with filling in the programme. I am with you as it is an important part of the evening and its enjoyment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OveFundinFan 4,139 Posted October 1, 2017 Thanks to DutchGrasstrack for the live link. Really good meeting, Drabik deserved the acolades. Its a very wide track, Saturdays meeting will have 6 riders per heat. I think for 4 rider meeting they ought to 4 gates marked out in the space, perhaps, of 3. Outside rider would still have the same space on first bend to do a swoop round. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is important,possiby more so in this meeing.I know the format is the same,or was in the Baltic Cup in Germany.What i didn't like about the format was a rider can qualify for the next round after two heats and then not bother to ride in the last heat.This happened a few times when i attended and it is annoying as the best riders sit on the sidelines for a heat.....grrr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Back straight was about 16 meters. Thats wider/as wide than the bends at most one off tracks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
