Still all based on rumour and speculation of course and still uncertain if Edinburgh will run in 2023 - but it does seem highly unlikely that any Championship team could afford to spend 10.58 on a No.1 and still be able to put a competitive team together, especially if the limit is reduced to 38. Even a 9 point No.1 may well be a luxury if that was the case - possibly high 8s max. Championship paying public look certain to be short changed yet again next year ? Agree with your last sentence.

I disagree, to get closer racing you want the gap from the top riders & bottom riders to be closer together. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given the amount if money Birmingham lost this year, paying even the sane rates must be regarded as "silly money". I fear for the club if they pick an expensive team & get no extra bodies turning up!

szkocjasid 3,042 Posted October 26, 2022 As for the Monarchs team. I'd be absolutely delighted if the run & not bothered who they'd sign as long as the Speedway continued. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
