Richie's average is now 8.42 Am pretty sure you used to be able to use a guest, at home with a +5% average,,, maybe that rule is no longer in existence?,,, but still shows that, +5% on the averages (BSPL site)? So, BWD ave. 8.21 + 5% = 8.62,,, but on the latest averages BWD doesn't show that option, hmmm? Edited April 28, 2022 by ruffdiamond Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe because BWD average is assessed is the reason you don't get the +5%? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha nothing is simple in speedway, to be fair though we could bring someone in on a much lower average than BWD has and they'd probably still score the same if not more. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
