GiveusaB 1,105 Posted February 9, 2021 Be a mistake to race on Tuesdays as opposed to Fridays (imo...) Simply because of the distance and being able to make a weekend of the visit ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still to high and Batch would have to do a "Joe Screen" and get his average down to 8 to get a 12 average before he could be considered for a double up roll; unless (and its a big unless) the BSPL do a special one off rule bend!!! and let him come in on a 12 (which they won't) so its a moot point really...

There are already 3 Saturday tracks in CL and most Midlands and South like to do a Northern Tour plus Saturday not a great day for Guests in 6 teams tied up and lot of top end Riders are on Continent etc. Tuesday / Wednesday is only realistic option Four Clubs already ride on a Friday and remember what The Chairman did to Lakeside and Workington in 2018, cancelling Friday matches at 3 days notice as he couldn't get a Guest for his own Club. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
