Sings4Speedway 3,247 Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) Sorry I should be more positive about the 6,7 & 8. Its a lower standard all round this year so points and improvement is there to be had and lets not forget that Danny didn't exactly start last season in glory. I feel the best reserves this year will be those who are consistent and ultimately stay on board the bike. Keep steady and pick up a point from the 3 main rides and potentially a little more from the reserves race and that's their job done. Not the best bottom two in the league but also not the worst. With a strong top 4/5 and a little luck the Kings should be right up the table. Edited January 21, 2015 by Sings4Kings 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebel1 72 Posted January 21, 2015 Falcon Hammer, hoping not, nothing confirmed either way other than it should be taking place the week before the official first meeting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebel1 72 Posted January 29, 2015 Be interesting to see James Shanes at Iwade. He has to be the best signing and surely will, when settled, keep Ben on his toes for top spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is James Shanes going to practise at the training track at Iwade? Hes riding for Kent Kings who ride their home meetings at the Central Park Greyhound stadium in Sittingbourne! James Shanes is one ell of a talent, very quick on the grass! Edited February 1, 2015 by 25yearfan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teaboy279 1,038 Posted February 2, 2015 Yeah James shanes one of the first confirmed riders at Iwade's season opener on March the first. Kents season opener the small matter of a trophy match at home to Eastbourne. Roll on easter 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueherb777 571 Posted February 2, 2015 Yeah James shanes one of the first confirmed riders at Iwade's season opener on March the first. Kents season opener the small matter of a trophy match at home to Eastbourne. Roll on easter I think we could see a bumper crowd for the Bank Holiday opener against the Eagles in the National Trophy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Ceglio 10 Posted February 2, 2015 I think the eagles could pull off a win at arlington and at Central Park with the expirence from mason 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben91 1,743 Posted February 4, 2015 I think the eagles could pull off a win at arlington and at Central Park with the expirence from mason Be very surprised to see the Eagles trouble the Kings at Central Park. Reserves will be key. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Kings win at Arlington either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Ceglio 10 Posted February 4, 2015 No disrespect to Sheppard Mullins or Cousins but neither Sheppard or Cousins have scored more than gifted points in NL and mullins never really gets going in all the teams he's been in. If wood is as good as he is on the grass he will be banging on points and it's fair to say kelsey Dugard is probably the most promising 3 pointer in the league. I recall him leading Terry-Daley, Adam kirby and Benji Compton at Central Park as well as him finishing 6th in the British u19s. As well as this How many of the kent team have raced Arlington? Ben - yes Shanes - no Ayres - no Baseby - no Verge - no Sheppard -no mullins - no cousins - no. Eastbourne at kent - mason - yes Owen - yes Kelsey - yes George - no Warwick - no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nikko 181 Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) Yeah James shanes one of the first confirmed riders at Iwade's season opener on March the first. Just to confirm James Shanes and Rik Mullins have been invited and accepted to join us at SITRAs launch on the 1st March. Ex King Jack Kingston has also accepted. Along with Solo riders we have British Champions on left and right hand sidecars and European 500cc sidecar champions. We hope to see alot of our friends from the Kings fan base at this FREE event.

teaboy279 1,038 Posted February 4, 2015 Be nice to see kent riders getting a chance to practice reguarly, and some sitra club riders get a chance to ride in junior races at central park. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't be surprised to see the Kings win at Arlington either. The reserves will be key which I think goes in Eastbourne's favour. Saying that it may be a little early in the season for any of them to be dialled in? I think the Kent 1-5 will be more solid and get us through but it will be squeaky over two legs. Don't be surprised to see Woody mixing it with main body riders.......although heaven forbid him and Danny Ayres going for the same piece of track! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
