racers and royals

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it’s OFF. Snow was on the track yesterday and the forecast isn’t great for the weekend

Hi Rocketrod, I would definitely do Czestochowa v Leszno on the Sunday- Czestochowa is a great racetrack and not to far from Krakow. Not sure yet if there will be Nice Polska/div 2 matches on the Saturday however there is a meeting at Gniezno(European U21 team semi-final) definitely- although quite a distance from Czestochowa.

You are being very helpful today I was right about the reserves as well

In the SEC he was terrible- finishing 12th with 20pts over the 4 meetings

As it`s the last step before the GP`s I would think it`s important that there are 2 reserves present in Landshut. I`m really missing using Speedway.org for info- do you or Doug know of an alternative ??

Aren`t I clever suggesting what they have done As for the reserves they might go 1st reserve from 4th place in Qualifier 1 2nd reserve 4th place in qualifier 2 etc etc. If any of the 3 picks are 4th placed finishers then they go 4th place left and then 5th place. Does that make sense Edit If you knew in February- why didn`t you post it.

We don`t yet know how they are going to work out the qualifiers for the final- let alone the reserves Presumably Germany must have a wildcard for the Landshut final- so it can`t be 4 from each qualifier. So is it 3 from each and 3 picks from the FIM + the wildcard ? I will have to ask Armando

Short video with the " star " looking well

Lovely spring day in Torun- practice went well this am. Currently watering the track !!! No Chris Holder today- brother Jack replaces him

He could have a " quiet" social life
