Surely we will be looking to use up as many points as we can and getting 2 riders to make up the 14.31 pushing Mason to start at reserve ...the guessing gets interesting now looks like you got it wrong about the rider that couldnt comit due to work comitments then as its now turned out to be rene bach as others said at the time it was never said the rider was in last years team just a previous rider most new ty was probably back and matt had said himself workington had never been intouch Edited January 3, 2018 by scaramanga Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allthegearbutnaeidea 1,712 Posted January 3, 2018 Decent team for a small budget club, personally wouldn't have Klindt and Jensen in my team but not too much else out there for you guys apart from TJ who isnt sure about fixtures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted January 4, 2018 Can see a lot of close scores at home..Maybe losing out a few times in the last few heats. With jump starts being allowed..that will help back and klindt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

89buttons 749 Posted January 4, 2018 14 hours ago, madsteve said: In fairness I think we have a really solid team. With Mason starting as a reserve it could prove to be a master stroke especially with Bewley being the next rider up the pecking order if they were to swap places at some point we would still have a strong reserve which is something we have lacked for a few seasons. I think Rene being number one is something he will want to keep hold of. If rasmus rides at two it will be a strong pairing. Also I think putting Ty and Dan together would be another good pairing leaving Klint with number 5 linking up with the reserves. Interesting riding order - I’m not a worky fan so haven’t seen them all around your track but looking at the lineup not at all how I’d put them together! I’d go with proctor at 5 think he’d win more races than klindt there - some good no.5’s in the league that know beating klindt at the tapes is likely all they need to do proctor a bit more of a racer and also a decent starter! therefore I’d put klindt+rasser at 3/4 so you’ve got the Danes together and a gater + a racer in the engine room, putting Bewley at 2 which would also mean in campton increases he’s can slide straight into no.2!! If Rene can get back to how he was a few years back when he and kenni Larsen tore the league apart at Newcastle then could be dark horses! I see improvement in rasser bewley and bickley - but if he can’t I don’t see improvement in klindt or much in proctor so could leave you short in hts 13/15 - all that said and entertaining looking side and great to see young brits in local teams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some teams now have effectively two number ones though, it's gonna be interesting, roll on March. Edited January 4, 2018 by comet49 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carlislecomet2 304 Posted January 4, 2018 Whilst we appear to have a solid looking team I can see what you mean about us possibly struggling in heats 13 and 15 against some of the teams who will have one, two even three big hitters in their line up. It should however provide some close meetings and hopefully some great entertainment at DP this year. A solid 1-7 v top heavy, who wins? Roll on March.
