Was doing ok at the Silver Helmet while others were failing due to weather and he stayed on. Who would you like to see then Marshall07? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He should have finished higher of the individuals as he had a higher average. What I'm saying is he isn't good enough to gamble on a 4 point average. You surely can't be using the Silver Helmet as any comparison?! If we take Bukhave on a 4 we then need to sign a 5/6 pointer and I can't see where that would come from.

Not with the way they want to try and keep a percentage of this years team I agree, but if they had started again then I would think and know Jacob would do well for them. Regarding silver Helmet I meant by how he was doing before rain stopped play he was controling better than some of the more known riders. I hope he gets a team placing somewhere else 1 to see him ride again and 2 to see him against the Bears 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a good dice with Ben Barker finishing second to him. Underrated rider not given a full chance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greaves scored 9+4 at Berwick from 5 rides yet is still only a 4 point rider. Having watched him this year I don't think he's improved enough since being in the Redcar team last year to warrant a place next year on a 4 point average.

Having watched him this year I don't think he's improved enough since being in the Redcar team last year to warrant a place next year on a 4 point average. He did improve his handling of our track after his first rides, when he looked as if he was trying too hard. I see him regularly in the Redcar training meetings as well and he can be a lot better with more rides. Actually if we run next year I would like him at Newcastle, especially if it means no Danny. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's Bukhaves problem though, he wouldn't mean no Danny as he's stuck on a 4. I have nothing against the lad but he's just too big a gamble on a 4. There's some good British lads out there on that average worth a go over him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
