waytogo28 2,054 Posted July 3, 2017 So why is Buster who still spends SO much time on the track not prepared to try such simple track adjustments. Is he really so set in his ways that nothing can shake his belief that he IS doing it right, HIS way? Seems ludicrous to me when few fans are satisfied with the racing they get at AFA and more and more vote with their feet because he won'r listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevehone 3,439 Posted July 3, 2017 Bad shale. Don't think it's any more complicated than that. it's brand new for the SWC, change of shale Be interesting to see if holder was riding his uk machinery or whether he was using his GP bikes in the World Cup, as I think it was his GP machinery (ash Holloway tuned) and he will be back on Peter johns engines for league racing for lynn as he won't dump Peter johns and will be trying to get his Peter johns engines back on the pace. the engines used in the SWC had PJR on them so doubt they are Ash-Tech Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynnboy 254 Posted July 3, 2017 it's brand new for the SWC, change of shale the engines used in the SWC had PJR on them so doubt they are Ash-Tech Thanks Steve for the info, he has no excuse now then 15 point max every week 😜 as that engine was pulling out of the starts and looked fast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What about league meetings ?The main problem or cause is the track is set up for the stock cars there is more money to be made with minimal out lay compared to speedway - it ain't going to change sadly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The racing wasn't great but i still maintain it doesn't help when there was such a difference in class of riders. Edited July 3, 2017 by tellboy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevehone 3,439 Posted July 4, 2017 surely it shows Buster knows there's a problem and is trying to do something about it? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,708 Posted July 4, 2017 surely it shows Buster knows there's a problem and is trying to do something about it? All depends if he's continuing with the new shale or whether is was a specific requirement for the SWC. We'll see over the next couple of weeks I suppose.
