THE DEAN MACHINE 4,750 Posted August 20, 2022 Is that air fence filled with air ? Cause riders seem to hit it like a solid fence, it doesn’t seem to give 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikebv 10,290 Posted August 20, 2022 What is wrong with this track? Lots of rave reviews but top class riders struggling on it? And the racing is really poor... Lambert a straight in front... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noelinho 922 Posted August 20, 2022 Ambulance 2 on track again. Ambulance 3 just left with Chris Holder... Ambulance 1 is up at the pits but seems we might have a reasonable stoppage again. Unfortunate accidents really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cause riders seem to hit it like a solid fence, it doesn’t seem to give I think it's a poly foam fence, but I might be wrong. It's certainly quite "solid" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambert a straight in front... We have seen some good racing, but Milik and Thomsen both just go their lines wrong. Holder was unlucky - he high sided and got collected. The fall was awkward but he would've got up from it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Needs to get himself a British team spot next season in order to learn new skills. Throttle jockey Polish tracks won't teach him anything more than he already knows so he should dump the Swedish league in order to become a better rider. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambert a straight in front... Glasgow promoter is doing the co-commentary on the stream and he stated more crashes in this meeting than they have had all season. Stakes are higher. Not sure why riders struggling. Interesting to see on twitter Darcy Ward tweeted that a lot of riders won't like the Glasgow track . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's a knowledge thing rather than track. You have to make a very deliberate entry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
