  1. Past hour
  2. Tonights the reason when there should be I league in GB next season,while lowering the throughout the Teams you will able to have competitive meetings between Teams of equal standard.Would pay money to watch mismatch meetings for most of the season.
  3. Well looks like Lawson, Zac and Cairns are saving themselves for the match that really matters tomorrow judging from tonights result.
  4. Hopefully if the lights and electric get put in place, should be 7pk starts, so you could see the reds, go to the Waverley for food, then to the speedway šŸ˜„šŸ
  5. It depends who is listened to. Can have all the ambition and finance in the world but that won’t help you if you’ve no idea how to put a successful team together. The manager has his favourites who he ā€œloves working withā€ who are clearly not good enough at this level. Pedersen for example shouldn’t even be a consideration for next year but the manager likes him…
  6. Think Tom is a perfect fit for King's Lynn tbh.
  7. I’ve never thought he was greatly suited to Belle Vue and a track like Ipswich was far better suited to his racing…can’t see Belle Vue really wanting him back to be honest
  8. I think it will be a complete revamp in 27. In 2 minds about Brennan tbh. Not sure on King on a higher average. I personally think we’ll have a big hitter at 1 & someone who’s marketable. After that I think we’ll see a younger set up. Cooper from Lynn anyone?
  9. Yep but the r is for restricted 500 so they are reducing it power out put by reducing the fuel input it's already happening. It's not about reducing the cc to 250 it's about using the abundance of lower cost 500cc engines available In recent times the Speedway Control Bureau members have discussed the for's and against's introducing a new class to the British Youth Championship of the 500cc Restricted Class known as 500R. The 500R is where motorcycles with a 500cc engine use a 27mm carburetor restrictor which reduces the power to the level of a 250cc engine. The main goals for introducing this class is improve safety, lower costs and easier for riders to learn. The 500R engines have more torque at lower RPM's which makes the bike smoother and more stable to ride. Reducing the power with the restrictor does not effect the stability of the bike, ensuring the safe and smooth riding even for beginners. The 500R engine will last longer than a 250cc engine which reduces maintenance and repair costs, and with more 500R available on the market, this makes them cheaper for riders to buy. 500R motorcycles allow riders to move smoothly from Youth to Senior classes, after removing the restrictor, the engine can be used in full 500cc racing. Riders can use the same bike at different stages of their careers, which saves money on new equipment, the diameter of the carburettor can be easily checked by the Machine Examiner. Therefore based on this information and with all of British Speedway trying to introduce more riders at the same time of keeping the cost affordable, for the 2027 season the 500R class will be introduced to the British Youth Championship for riders between the ages of 13 years old to 15 years old. As well as the 500R riders will have a choice to compete in the British Youth Championship in the following classes - 500cc, 250cc, 125cc/150cc
  10. If I was in Richard's shoes then I'd be asking Scotty Nicholls if he'd be interested in becoming Team Manager in 2027.
  11. The best team won no complaints. Given the lateness we were confirmed as starting to get in to the play offs is a result. I still believe Mayfield & Coleman are both good for Ipswich & uk speedway looking forward to 2027. Interesting comments by Coleman after heat 14 role on 2027
  12. Only two I’d be bringing back from this lot are King and Musielak. Need to keep Hurry away from the team building in 2027 also. Keep him on by all means, just let him manage the team he’s given.
  13. Surely you have a build a team around Lawson next year? šŸ‘€
  14. Same, Think we need a complete reset in 2027. This year's team needs to be ripped up considerably imo with King and Musielak being the only two riders to return.
  15. I’m not one for wishing an injury on a rider but if his throttle cable got stuck at that moment I wouldn’t have given him any sympathy! Then Bewley could have guested on Thursday for us šŸ˜‚
  16. Same here, I like the lad a lot and he's on a nice GSA but I think he may have peaked as a rider tbh. I'd happily go top heavy with a No.1, King, Musielak and Woryna + a newcomer on a 5.00 to fill in at No.2.
  17. Even funnier was doyle waved at him as he went soaring passed 🤣🤣
  18. Pretty much sums King's Lynn Speedway up at Premiership level tbh.
  19. An awful display from an awful team, let’s not beat around the bush. Poor management for keeping Lawson, the guy is absolutely useless and out of his depth at this level, stay at Poole and don’t come back. His little hissy fit after heat 13 when everyone shut off after the finish line but he decides to go full throttle even down the back straight, grade a šŸ”” end in my opinion and never want him back at Ipswich. Also, poor look for the riders to not come out and see the paying fans who stuck by them after a shocking season and not even wave when everyone knows we aren’t going back to Foxhall this season.
  20. Today
  21. I can’t believe anybody seriously thought that Ipswich could win tonight let alone challenge over 2 legs… serious question…is it likely Ipswich will be staging a GP…Or is it just a rumour given that Richard Coleman runs both shows ?….if Ipswich is definitely in line then it would be a huge mistake
  22. Well, the result was as expected maybe but fans were given hope with the 5-1 in heat 1. Unfortunately as I feared it was mega slick and served up the worst meeting of the season, simply nothing you could do if behind. All the best to the Aces for the final, let's hope it's not too one-sided.
