IronScorpion 1,399 Posted April 20, 2018 With the unfortunate bike problem for Allen, it maybe hit us a bit & the tide turned. Having your top 3 riders when dialled in at Sheffield, helps. Howarth in 10, Bjerre in 11, Wright in 12, Howarth & Bjerre in 13, Wright in 14 for r/r means that these 3 are not going to give many points away at the tail end of a meeting. We had our problems, machinery wise & I don't think you had many but you deserved the win putting the bikes in the right places when the racing was tight.

Moranboys 399 Posted April 20, 2018 was a damn good meeting but can't see us getting very close to you tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cue Ball 413 Posted April 20, 2018 Seem to think Todd started like this last season, but then tailed off as others were riding more regularly and he had a lack of meetings. Hopefully he can keep the momentum going this year - if he does, we will definitely be there or thereabouts come the end of the season with this team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graz gp 184 Posted April 20, 2018 I thought Lasse was a bit down on power last night. He did not seem his usual self, blasting around the outside. utt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scunny1 430 Posted April 20, 2018 I must have been at a different meeting to everyone fawning how good the racing was. For me ,much was from the gate and over by bend 2. From heat 11, Scorpions self destructed and hugely disappointed so much so I was on the Parkway by the time heat 15 started . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lewis 76 Posted April 22, 2018 I enjoyed the meeting if not the result, agreed there wasnt much passing BUT there was plenty of trying to pass and some close racing so that it is what made it good for me, normally at Sheffield it is a procession and boring like hell. Hey and im not trying to besmirch Sheffield, the facilities are great & fans are good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScunnyDan 335 Posted April 22, 2018 Lewis, where was you stood??? Sheff fans on the 4th bend told myself and a few other scunny fans to f*c*ing do one and f**k off, because we got a 5-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lewis 76 Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) Well i thought that both Sheff riders got a flyer in heat 14 but hey for me if you dont touch the tapes and are not rolling its not meant to matter now. Edited April 23, 2018 by Lewis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
