Hawk127 1,360 Posted August 24, 2023 Heat 13 and the Stars are still in it and really do deserve a pat on the back given that it is almost a three man team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel Smith 5,672 Posted August 24, 2023 13+1 from both reserves is absolutely sensational. A 5 man team has absolutely no right to win this meeting, brilliant from King's Lynn. Belle Vue 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tellboy 3,669 Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) What a last race,absolutely awesome from Lambert.Outgated by Kurtz and Bewley you just thought no chance.Stormed around Kurtz 3rd/4th bend lap2 and set after Bewley and cut back off bend 2 lap 3 I think.Belle Vue really should be embarrassed by that result against a woefully weak Lynn team.It was good to see Lambert do what he done tonight as some were saying he won't take risks,just the money.Well he proved those wrong tonight. Edit:Tonight also shows a track with a bit of grip in it can produce good racing.Times were very quick tonight. Edited August 24, 2023 by tellboy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoeW436 606 Posted August 24, 2023 I’ve been critical Robert Lamberts race craft when coming from the back but it sounds like he pulled one out the bag in heat 15 tonight. He’s as quick as just about anyone when out at the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
one of clubs 118 Posted August 24, 2023 When the two home reserves score like they did tonight then almost every time the team wins, regardless of the opposition. It is all very well saying all a team has to do is turn up and the points are in the bag, we know things are not like that. A team has to go out and win the thing and KL did that.Congrats to them. This is a slightly disappointing result but with wolves and leics losing then the result was not a disaster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTT 1,249 Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) The most blatant average manipulation you'll ever see. Rowe & S. Lambert putting up 26+2 lol. Edited August 24, 2023 by TTT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s as quick as just about anyone when out at the front. He also had a great race with Kurtz in ht13,and also lined Bewley up beautifully in ht 6 having to come from behind on about lap 2/3.I reckon his win in ht15 may have been the fastest this season 58.28,unsure but if he had gated instead of coming through traffic it may have been below 58 seconds.He certainly did make the fans go home happy tonight.As well as the 2 reserves having some excellent races,plus Jenkins made an all important pass on Blodorn. On a negative note was Allitt there tonight,I didn't see him.If he wasn't shame on him as he is down as joint promoter.
