  1. it is, but for some reason when things get moved around due to things over running it doesn't update properly and just ends when it's scheduled to do so, bloody annoying
  2. think it's going to be between the Aussies and the Danes, so i'll say 1. Australia 2. Denmark 3. Sweden 4. Poland

    Let's Get Behind Team Gb

    I've got to agree with alot of the posts on here, when you see a young rider with the class that Tai has, it's noticable straight away. He's got bags of natural talent, he's a quick learner, wants to achieve everything in the sport and seems really level headed. It surprised me how well he did last night, but in a way it shouldn't have.

    Gb Bikes And Tuners

    Last night clearly showed having the right setup for a slick track helped rather than having a fast engine, our riders snaked from the starts and the back end was spinning out a hell of alot around the corners (resulting in steady pulling a locker). I think it's clear our riders don't always communicate ideas to each other in the pits regarding setups etc as well as the Danes do. Also isn't it time to scrap practice for the SWC and GP's ?, as everytime a rider is questioned on track conditions, i've never heard one say they're the same as in practice.

    Greg Hancock

    yeah, what i meant was it's easy to see his frame because it's matt black, it's much easier to see the differences in shape as it stands out more

    Final Gp, From Germany

    Yeah the track ruined what could have been an excellent GP, it's a pity they shot themselves in the foot with all the hype. We've had some excellent GP's this year, pity the last one couldn't have been one of them

    Greg Hancock

    yeah i noticed it, was easy to spot too with it being matt black.
  8. just missed the local bbc new programme live at the event hope it all goes well tonight for Gary and the huge crowd, the weathers perfect for a great meeting. As i can't make it tonight (work nights), i'll be making a donation instead
  9. How anybody can question Jasons proffesionalism is beyond me
  10. she already does bigger and better things, she presents the A1gp and regularly presents skysports news

    Swc Final

    i think he wanted you to use some paragraphs, as it can be a little hard to read on a pc screen when it's all in one block of text. Anyway, well done Poland, some quite good racing tonight, but yeah, i bet it's usually much better in the league, but we're used to the gp and swc tracks being prepared differently to the league meetings held on the same tracks. As for GB, the only word is dissapointing
  12. i personally think it's a great move by sky to have her presenting, Keith couldn't do it due to him covering the british suprbikes on sunday, so i for one am glad they went for a high profile presenter, she does a great job for the a1 grand prix, and yeah she is gorgeous too
  13. Well i for one have always supported Britain and England first and foremost, then if they're out of the equation, i will cheer on my next favourite teams/riders. Anyway, i've just finished watching it, glad it had some better racing than Vojens, looked a good crowd there and well done to us (Britain)
  14. well i tried to book the next few days off work to make it down tonight, but they won't let me as there's too many people off already spoilsports, so im gonna have to sky + it and watch it tomorrow afternoon Hope the weather stays fine, there's some good action and the brits win
  15. if people are having problems with recordable dvd's you're recording on yourself, try using some different branded discs, some of these recorders are fussy with which discs they prefer. As for this dvd, i'm going to buy myself a copy for my birthday

    Daily Mail Report

    Great article, if the BSPA can't promote our sport now on the back of this, then some serious questions need to be asked
  17. If he clambered over the netting then it was a little daft, but i suppose it's easily excused in such dramtic circumstances, alot of these stewards do let the little power they have go to their heads, like alot of our bosses, they seem to thrive on it

    Nicki Pedersen Slams Cardiff

    haha, some great replies in here, i honestly like nicki as a rider, yeah sometimes he over steps the mark, but he's a racer, but to blame the track is just sour grapes, that track is the best there's been in Cardiff yet, i think it just shows how much these guys wanted to win it

    Chris Harris

    not had time to read each reply yet, all i want to add is absolutely fantastic, and thats the clean friendly version, how good was he last night (well saturday night now), every race he tried 100% and provided most of the entertainment. I hold my hands up and say i thought he'd be out of his depth this year, but im so glad to say he's proved alot of us wrong, what a fantastic addition he has been this year

    Best One Yet?

    It only needs one word to describe it...............wow!!!!

    Nicki Pedersen Slams Cardiff

    yeah it was a shame to see a few ruts develope, but each year the indoor tracks get better and better, was funny seeing Nicki trying to blame the other guy (sorry, my memorys blank, had too much to drink last night ) then after seeing the replay h knew he couldn't keep with that story so blamed the track instead
  22. yeah i've no problem what so ever with the kings lynn set up, im just bemused as to why this decision has been taken now, surely all the requirements for staging this meeting had been known about before they decided who staged it, so why the turn around now? it just shows the lack of professionalism in the way our sport is being run
  23. yeah im sure this will raise alot of money, should be a good meeting
  24. Just when you think the powers that be can't make any more horrendous decisions, they fool me and make another
