HGould 2,213 Posted June 8, 2019 I was going to go to Leicester tonight but pouring in the Midlands and no respite due until late afternoon; I need a speedway fix so a trip down to Arlington I think and an unexpected chance to spend tomorrow with my brother in Folkestone. Weather looks fine down South - should be a decent meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StevePark 2,780 Posted June 8, 2019 14 hours ago, HGould said: nearly all CL riders will be paid set amount contracted for points and bonus, highly unlikely a Guest would get paid a fee plus points. so if injured rider is on £x most likely Guest will get same deal - so no saving Depends on the agreement between the rider and the club he's guesting for. What the injured rider he is replacing earns has got absolutely nothing to do with any arrangement made. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I say, not always the case. Some guests want a guarantee, for a start. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of the time guests will ask for more because they know they sort of have you over a barrel on a few occasions. But you are correct every deal is done on a one off individual basis and the earnings of the rider he is replacing bears zero relevance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've dealt with a promoter who used to allow his rider to guest for us, but also state the terms so we are not paying him more than he was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
