Rye you might get something but i cant see the Poles liking it much. Kurtz has gone well there and Sundstrom used to race there. Dont think Josh likes it and has PK ever ridden there?

Surely holder will be back by then holder for kildermand is a like for like cant see it improving our fortunes to be honest

I get that but its better to have points in the bag rather than be having matches in hand.

 

Granted, most definately. But the season is young, and there's a long way to go.

Starman, the track on Wednesday was terrible. Smooth but no passing.  

Agreed, but its a funny time of year.  preparing a track this time of year. Glyn is still getting to grips with it he knows what he's doing  he will get it right how many meetings have we had at home ?. Smooth, its what the fans/riders were crying out for. A lot of money was invested in turns 1-2, but again, they will be not seen to there best effect untill we get some settled weather. Im sure Glyn will find the grip, im sure next time he will spike the outside, but maybe he was under instruction not to do so, i dont know. but as ive also pointed out, you have 3 options, not spike it, 2, spike it and all you will be doing is churning up no grip as Adam Sckorniki told me, or 3 , lightly spike it  and pack with tractor tyres. you need grip, but not to much. but as ive also pointed out, watering this time of year is a fine line. You can water the bends and home straight quite heavily, up to a point in the day this time of year because you get the sun, when we get it all day, but you have to be conservative with the back straight because the shadow of the grandstand casts early, and if you water that heavily this time of year it just stands.
Swindon got there set ups right and attacked the track, it was the same for both sides mate. Yes i was like you very dissapointed with our effort on Weds, things need to improve. and they will. Glyn will get it right, and it will all come together. No panic here mate..

So who is going to put the holes back in it then ?

Starman is an expert at digging holes for himself!

Track was very dry early afternoon 

It was. On a nice warm day you have to get water into that track during the daytime It dries terribly quickly. Glyn will soon get used to it.

Were Starman and Shovvy both at the same meeting ?    Now Im not sure who to believe.  Could you help Starman ?  Which one of you is the Billy Bull54iter

Nothing wrong with the track mate, just needed more water during the day. it dries very quickly. Glyn will get used to it. It was the same for both sides they gated and adapted better.. No excusses. Clearly some dont read my posts, then bring it up again..
