TINYS 292 Posted July 22, 2021 Some terrific racing at the AFA tonight track looked good but then it should be as Buster got all his toys out and done about 12 laps, would have finished about 20 minutes earlier otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
First Bend Bunching 23 Posted July 22, 2021 That was all a match should be, good hard racing, a last heat decider and a bit of atmosphere on the terraces 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TRM 97 Posted July 22, 2021 (edited) First speedway meeting tonight for me since Lakeside closed. Thoroughly enjoyed cheering on the stars. My wife and kids thoroughly enjoyed the occasion too, after dragging them from our holiday home to come with me to watch. great to see awesome Lawson still the same rider as I fondly remember. Jorgensen a real talent. Good to see Bewley also, great prospect for GB. thanks to the welcoming lynn fans in the grandstand. Hope the lady that fell after heat 15 is ok Edited July 23, 2021 by TRM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickH114 17 Posted July 22, 2021 Watching as a neutral I think the best team on the night won the meeting, I was surprised that in heat 15 Belle Vue didn’t use Kurtz, considering he came good in the latter heats at the showground on monday, and knowing that they needed a heat advantage in the final race I was even more surprised that Bewley was on gate 1.

The team that won on the night got to use a tac sub though at home, draw would have been a fair result. The partner for Bewley in heat 15 was a big debate between BV fans. Kurtz was very poor in heat 13 and most of the night apart from one ride. Worrall had been decent but not been out since heat 11 and no offence didn’t think he would have beaten Jorgensen & Lawson (although he gave it a good go). I would have picked Kurtz and hoped he popped out of the gate. But for Belle Vue in the end it was lost in heat 14, neither rider should have been beaten by Mountain in that. No need for the big cheers though when Etheridge fell heavily into the fence and the the subsequent jeering and abuse he got from Kings Lynn fans for not getting up.

It's sort of nice to hear that the Kings Lynn fans are still as unsporting as I remember them from years ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
