rob 0 Posted April 20, 2003 Seeing Mark looks to be out of speedway for some months yet, who is next in line for a GP call up?? Peter Karlsson?? David Howe?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Thumb 81 Posted April 20, 2003 The offical SGP site shows Peter Karlsson as number 26, top of the qualified reserve riders, so guess its him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomhaines 68 Posted April 23, 2003 IMO the GP Reserve system should be changed. If Loram is injured then the next best Brit from qualifying (Howe) should replace him. Next best Swede (Karlsson) Next best American (Janniro) etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shazzybird 10 Posted April 25, 2003 Theres no-one capable of filling Marks' boots as far as I'm concerned before you all jump down my throat for that one I do realise what you are on about :!: That was a little sniffle as I'm a miffed @ the fact of Cardiff with no Loram this year. He's the main reason for my family & friends from Canterbury travelling down each year :roll: Not sure who to cheer on this year now, seeing as we are not lucky enough to have a track close by we follow Marks' results as an individual.

Gemini 4,894 Posted April 26, 2003 Yes, he ought to wait until June 14th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Tractor Man 0 Posted April 26, 2003 Hopefully Mark will make it back in time but if he don,t I think all us Brits have got to throw our weight behind Lee Richardson and Scott Nicholls plus any other Brit rider who may get a wild card irrespective of who you support normally.Both Lee and Scott are going to be very close to winning the Grand Prix series in the near future and hopefully one or the other may win it outright soon .Trick seems to have developed a chink in his set up this season and with Billy H missing out I think either of our two young hungry for success lads have more than a fair chance of upsetting their more illustrious opponents good luck both....

shazzybird 10 Posted May 13, 2003 I'll be cheering for all the Brits, but am really hoping for Mark to be there! 3rd time lucky (Hopefully xx) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
