Sings4Speedway 3,247 Posted June 24, 2022 I think the issue falls under the grading of the meetings. Previous one was World Longtrack qualifier this weekend its a Euro Grasstrack qualifier. (If it makes Berwick fans feel any better he should comfortably get through this round so there will be a semi final ahead but at least the final is in the UK) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See he races for the colts and is missing tonight (according to Berwick website). Hope for his r/r rides they only get 75% of his average. If you add the 2 premiership guest bookings in arnieg then that would be 12 guest bookings. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not knocking the rider but the Chris Harris guesting situation is probably a prime example among many prime examples as to why speedway isn't taking very seriously anymore. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may be on to something there... Fortunately the way it is going it wont be too long before there are more riders than team places, meaning guests will be a thing of the past..

If you read What Flint says on Website they had to choose someone .25% below Harris and they went for Starke.That’s how it reads to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
