Paulco 7,149 Posted February 2, 2017 6 years of watching Shane Parker round Ashfield tops my list . Saw Henrik Gustafsson round Saddlebow Road in 1992 , that was amazing to watch . Likewise Les Collins round Powderhall . Any rider who misses the gate , then proceeds to toy with his rivals before executing an overtake , is the biggest buzz watching speedway . Shane Parker doing that to Ryan Fisher , then waving to him after he passed him , brought the house down at Ashfield that day . You have to include Chris Harris in that too , anyone who was at Cardiff that night in 2007 , will never forget it . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,716 Posted February 2, 2017 Oh for a few more Shane Parkers! Great on and off track entertainment.🚜 Ben Howe was a favoutite of mine - often seemed mad as a box of frogs though 😲 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with John Cook...but he could be erratic sometimes which I would have found frustrating if he had ridden for my team! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
