Hope they do as that will mean they are definitely running .

Yes, they did used to say that didn't they? Until Anders Michanek proved everyone wrong. But if you look at the past few years of the GPs, one bad meeting can be crucial in the season's record for a rider vying for the top spot. I know it was a joke when someone suggested BZ might ride for Ipswich to learn the track before the British GP. But it would be nice to think that the WC could ride a variety of tracks.

I think you missed my point. But hey ho.

Last year's agreed regs were done prior to Northampton being on board, but averages didn't change when they did.. The play off structure changed from the top three in five, to top four in six, but nothing else..    

I found an old copy of the defunct magazine 'SPEEDWAY MAIL (oct 1996)' and upon reading it noticed that feels like it draws a lot of parallels with today!! First thing I read was about the BSPA putting out a questionnaire and has done recently to I believe, with the the headline 'Shooting the Other Foot' is apt for British Speedway too. It goes into about money and is just prior to the Lay-down engine being enforced in the sport and talk of having SKY TV maybe screening a meeting, while current day is trying to get speedway back on tv once again. There is also talk about Tyres as that is something being spoken about, and there is a questionnaire too with fans given multiple choice answers.
