Wasn't the greatest night of action to be honest. PK chasing down and catching an off form Hamill, Pjiper & Shields being the highlights.

 

In the race between PK & Freddie it was over as soon as PK got past Hefenbrock in one corner & Freddie had to wait until the next, PK got the advantage off the inside (of the two) hitting the first corner. Lindgren caught him but ran out of laps.

 

Impressed with... Kerr's outside swoops, Hansen's effort and Pjiper.

So that's Theo Pijper doubling-up with Wolves next year then...

Wolves could do a lot worse!! Always said Theo was a non-gating gating tart who stuck to the white line but had a lovely style and if he managed to outgate someone he'd be hard to beat. Well tonight I was proved right and wrong by him! He passed on the outside, half a lap after I told people, "that foreign guy has theo sussed, he's neverr going to go around him........ oh <beep>" but he was the rider to make PK work the hardest! Ok eh had the head start but most of the time, once PK had caught up with someone he was past on the next bend (or exit of) but not Theo, he kept him back for a few laps and ti was only a phenominal dive up the back straight on the last lap (which the local were all expecting!) that saw him pass Theo!

 

I've always liked PK but what are we missing out on by him being a good gater? He was picking people off with such ease it was embarrasing for the other guys! I say go back to the "good ol' day" and make the top guys started off a 15 metre handicap. Crump, Adams, PK and Pedersen! All 4 are more than capable and a damn sight more exciting that way!

Doubt it, he's Dutch. Don't DUer's have to be British?

 

Plus I think Woffinden may get teh nod.

 

Plus II he rides for Edinburgh, so does Lawson. They'd be unavailable at the same time.

PK is a much better gater than he used to be SCB, but he has never been a brilliant starter, far from it. Especially at home!

 

In his race with Piper, I honestly think he was playing to the crowd in that one. He could have gone past him a lot sooner than he did. Not taking anything away from Piper at all who I thought rode intelligently all night.

But Tai is an Aussie.

 

And there's no way he's ready for the EL yet.

 

Theo was class tonight. He got better and better as the night went on. And he proved SCB wrong, so that's got to earn him a vote in most peoples eyes.
