Phil The Ace 2,866 Posted November 30, 2013 I thought the same so I checked last years rule book and it does state that all commonwealth and American riders come into the EL on a 3 average and PL on a 5 Beat me to it. Lol Thanks screamer that puts my doubts to bed Zagar and Manzares it is then It's what every aces fan wants Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,839 Posted November 30, 2013 Would Gino be on a three? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyJ 95 Posted November 30, 2013 Zagar Cook Nicholls Worrall Manzares Will most likely be our 1-4. That's 5 English riders which is good going Much as I'd love Zagar, isn't he ( a ) unlikely to be interested in the 2014 EL due to the increased fixtures and ( b ) likely to be too expensive?

The White Knight 9,039 Posted November 30, 2013 Yeh in ute commenwealth riders come in on a 3 in the EL and 5 in the PL with America being in the commenwealth then im assuming he will come in on a 3 Somebody had better tell the Americans. :shock: They are a bit sensitive about that sort of thing. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil The Ace 2,866 Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Somebody had better tell the Americans. :shock: They are a bit sensitive about that sort of thing. Oh right. Are they not. Anyway as I understand it he will be coming on a 3 point average if he was to ride EL and that's from a promoter Much as I'd love Zagar, isn't he ( a ) unlikely to be interested in the 2014 EL due to the increased fixtures and ( b ) likely to be too expensive? Our teams a lot cheaper than last and we afforded Zagar even paying him on time and other riders. He will be with the aces.

INCOGNITO 357 Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Zagar Cook Nicholls Worrall Gino comes to 32.01 without reduction but think Gino would be over powered in the EL Edited November 30, 2013 by INCOGNITO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil The Ace 2,866 Posted November 30, 2013 Zagar Cook Nicholls Worrall Gino comes to 32.01 without reduction but think Gino would be over powered in the EL Yes without the reduction Zagar can't fit. But as you will all find out next week worralls average has been reduced by 2.5% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B.V 72 1,054 Posted November 30, 2013 From what I have seen of him he is better than any of our National league riders and with our proposed top 4 as long as he beats them he will be doing a good job and give him a few weeks to get dialled into our track and he will beat a few second srings as well.

He's dialled into our track already. He's very quick around it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,714 Posted November 30, 2013 I'm hearing Manzares is PL bound..I heard that too - in fact I was told he has tweeted it himself. As a side issue I belilieve no foreign rider should come in on a 3. What is the point of taking action to help British youngsters and then then assessing foreigners who have ridden in SWC in on a 3?

SCB 15 Posted November 30, 2013 Ash Birks 3.05. If two of his rides are against the NL riders and in 1 heats he's got a BV NL rider he should be good for the 3 points. So as long as the rest do well he'll be fine. British as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is the point of taking action to help British youngsters and then then assessing foreigners who have ridden in SWC in on a 3? I've always thought it's crazy basing an assessed average on a riders nationality. Every rider, no matter where they come from, should be assessed on their achievements, talent and potential.

John Leslie 3,213 Posted November 30, 2013 I've always thought it's crazy basing an assessed average on a riders nationality. Every rider, no matter where they come from, should be assessed on their achievements, talent and potential. I think they are. Manzares would be an EL 3.00 because he's never been in the G.P., never won his National title, and never ridden in British, Polish or Swedish leagues..
