Sings4Speedway 3,249 Posted May 24, 2023 As covered above big differences are the bike costs (as in purchase and maintenance) if you have that sponsored in the UK, Poland or both then happy days and its just travelling time but extra bike time and pay. If you don't then its double outlay and any extra monies earned are being spent out at a much higher rate. The fact is that sponsorships are landed by likeable, hard working and appreciative people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's more support, more opportunities to ride, more money, more training, more professional set ups... Riding in Poland is a no brainer if you're good enough. Rather than being sh!t on by the way the sport is run in this country, getting dropped from teams for being too good (too high average) for next to no money etc etc... I'm not a fan of Drew, but I know and respect what his decisions are, I think they're pretty sensible tbh... Rather have Simon Lambert than Kemp in my team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IronScorpion 1,413 Posted May 24, 2023 I still think Ablitt should be at 7 as we can always swap them around after heat 4 if not working. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,906 Posted May 24, 2023 Heat 14 going to be scunny downfall. Do you go 6 down after 13 put dougy in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,067 Posted May 24, 2023 (edited) Scunny keeping this close is a minor miracle with a 4 man team … The Cook brothers having an off night …. Scunny hopes in 13 and 15 and if they 6 behind after heat 13 then Douglas T/S for sure …. Worralls home form is a concern Edited May 24, 2023 by Gavan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,906 Posted May 24, 2023 Mental taking the 4-2 in 13, surely TM told them.if no 5-1 make sure 3-3? Might be difference in the bonus point 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tosh1218 593 Posted May 24, 2023 Super Ryan Douglas 18 pt maximum making a mockery of Pirates fans calling a big result out earlier in the week , a few others pitched in for the Scorpions . Ive watched on streams and visited most championships tracks and tonight was a very boring meeting , gate and go all night and I wouldn’t pay to watch that week in week out . Not a patch on proper raceways like Oxford ,Glasgow, Redcar and Scunthorpe . Great chance to get the bonus point back at the EW Raceway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie4388 684 Posted May 24, 2023 (edited) Great effort by a 4 man team. On another note still can't believe Poole chose to keep Worrall over Danny King. Worrall is nothing but a GT were as King is actually entertaining to watch. Edited May 24, 2023 by Fozzie4388 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
