ZagarRacing 117 Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) The word on Twitter is Shanes has now been released. Who is the replacement?? And can they score better than Shanes. 2+1 / 1 / 1 / 2+1 / 0 / 2+2 / 0 Edited May 22, 2019 by ZagarRacing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,079 Posted May 22, 2019 Stefan Nielsen could be worth a go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted May 22, 2019 We stuck with Zach and Jack last season and I see the same thing happening this season with Zach and James - unless Zach continues for too long with his low scoring. We know what he is capable of and he is worth persevering with to ride out of his current slump Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sings4Speedway 3,246 Posted May 22, 2019 Can't see Zach going anywhere personally. As for Shanes his 3.15 x 1.5 = 4.72? From the Champs riders to pick from. Now they either need to be 4.5 or above (or have previously achieved 4.5 or above?) at Championship level to be eligible. So Nielsen doesn't fit, Kemp cannot do all 3 leagues, Starke & Doolan not even close. Only viable option is Sarj the tape breaker or Ayres if he has previously achieved over 4.5 (and that is allowed?). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't believe he's in the NL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again its dependant if he has previously achieved over 4.5 at Championship level and if previously achieved is allowed or if its current average only that applies?

However IF Zach 4.29 + Shanes 3.15 = 7.44 - 0.01 to bring side under 42.5 limit = 7.43. 7.43 x 1.5 = 11.145 (can't remember where the round up/down starts). However 11.14 - 6.36 (Pickering) = 4.78 (which would be enough for Garcia or Bacon). Brave move to drop Waj but would create a title winning side in my opinion.

I am sure he has more important things to concern him than tin-pot happenings in a dwindling in interest motor sport like speedway. I will stick with it Gustix ,some of the rules now in place are very puzzling.Bugger worrying about these trivial rules lets try to get British speedway back on track with the entertainment aspect being the number one priority. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
