Why did it 'screw up the concept of the challenge'?
There was some competitive racing though as you say, but only the last race ended up with 3 riders when I believe Andy Mountain suffered bike problems?
Ended up - The Complete Car Services 'Fen Tiger Cubs' 16 AJL Select 13
Fen Tigers Cubs
1. Josh Bates - X 3 2 = 5
2. Joe Graver - 1 1 1 3 = 6+2
3. Nial Strudwick - 1 2 2 = 5+1
AJL Select
1. Nathan Stoneman - 2 2 3 = 7+1
2. Andy Mountain - 3 3 ns = 6
3. Tyler Govier - R X F R = 0
Some really good racing, and no mistaking Tyler Govier's score did no justice to the skill and effort he put in, very impressive and look forward to seeing him next week, when we have another challenge fixture lined up against The Kings Lynn Lightning
Apologies for that , i was just wound up that 2 riders that had obviously agreed to take part suddenly couldnt be bothered !
My comments were more biased against them as opposed to what took place , possibly a bad choice of words .

Unsure of the final score in this as it only ended up as 5 heats . The Heathen reserves obviously decided they didnt want to take part at the last minute and screwed up the concept of the challenge . Im sure someone has the score but not all races ended up with the full 4 riders . A shame as there was some competitive racing and the whole idea is very good for the future of the sport .

Is it still good on the weather front ?

I would also like someone local to keep us up to date on the weather please ? Although im only just over an hour away id rather not have a wasted journey if its likely to be called off , cheers in advance .

Looking forward to this one tomorrow with a little apprehension as Cam seemed a little out of sorts at Foxhall yesterday ! Hopefully it was just a blip with machinery as he had his mechanic with him on the back straight before one of his rides .
I think he may struggle to keep his 9 plus average this season after taking the NL by storm last year with his commitments at PL and NL levels this time around .
Like others i think the outcome of this meet may come down to how both teams No 1's perform but Cam's gating could well be the deciding factor on the day . He really has not been good in that department so far this season , being last out in most of his races .

Jerran is only realistically a reserve at PL level at the moment mainly due to being very inconsistant last season at Ipswich , Would quite regularly win heat 2 convincingly and then follow that with falling off in 2 of his next 3 rides ( hence his low average ) He does have alot of potential , he just needs to calm down a bit .
-
Jerran wasnt exactly burning up the track at Ipswich last year but on his day put in some very creditable perfomances [ Posting a time in one heat only a fraction of a second outside current track record ] Hope he finds a club soon as he does have potential ! Good luck to him at Dudley .

At least Cam will have had plenty of track time for The Witches this season so he should be up to speed !
Im already looking forward to the Rye House double header away on 4th June when My 2 favourite teams face the Rockets and the Raiders all for 1 price of £16

It all depends on the Rolling Averages. As I said, you need to learn and understand more about the rules.
I have asked a few questions about how the averages will be calculated and applied this season. Tungate and Heeps will be the only two Sackers Witches riders with "real-time" averages.
Give me a break Lovey , Ive seen every flipping rule change in the last 40 years and its mighty tough keeping up with them all !
They seem to change on a daily basis so hence the question .

Well i have to admit when you are only operating with only 6 riders you cant really afford to have anyone under par . We got away with it at Leiceester but if Tres had been scoring as we know he can , the scores on both Friday and Saturday would have most certainly been even more in our favour !
Also i dont know about other peoples opinions about supposedly '' meaningless ! '' meetings , but as a fan for nearly 40 years i want us to win everything going if possible !
Lets be honest weve seen some very good times and some equally bad over the years !
Does anyone know if the League Cup matches count to the overall rider averages ? If they do it wont be too long before Rohan is out of reserve spot and someone else in .
-
When Morton and Taylor are fit can we have them both back in the team please and keep Leigh at number 1 . I will leave you all to work out for yourselves who i think should lose his spot by his perfomances so far this year .
Mildenhall Ajl Challenge Fixture - 8th April 2012 Following Mildenhall V Dudley National Shield Fixture
in Youth Speedway and Development Leagues

I dont know the true reasons for their withdrawal but both completed schedualed rides , neither appeared to have any mechanical problems and neither got injured so unless they suddenly needed to be somewhere i dont see any other reason . If they had time issues why agree in the first place ?
Anyway lets put that one to bed and look forward to the AJL proper . Do we know when the league actually starts as these are just warm up challenges so far , arent they ?
