The Tigers look the strongest at this stage but many said the same last year. They certainly mean business with that 1-7.

My family and I spoke to Nicki P at Cardiff 2022 and although still suffering from his injuries he stated he was definitely racing in 2023 !!

Nicholls would be excellent at Plymouth an artist on the small track.

Belle Vue -V Sheffield POF leg 1 Monday 10th Oct
Hackett replied to PhilTheAce's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Decent meeting tonight + with a 12 point lead meeting still in the balance. Lambert absolute different gravy. The battle with Holder was super in ht 11 speedway out of the top drawer. Looking at speedway updates last meeting in Sept at Owlerton - Kurtz scored 12 with 4 heat wins , Zagar 9 (6) Tom Brennan 1+1 . Not sure how Lambert goes there but he has been absolute class in the two NSS meetings. Game on for the 2nd leg !!! Hope Etheridge and Wright not too beaten up. Musielak is supposedly fine but looked an awkward soil sample. Great to see a decent crowd and a good Sheffield away support roll on to Thurs -
Monster Joe won't let Tai miss out.

Brilliant effort by Vaculik tonight - Should guarantee a wild card spot for 23 !!

British Final 2022
Hackett replied to Hackett's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Congrats to Dan Bewley the guy was a different gravy and winning races easily. Fair play to Tom Brennan being the "Top of the Brits" racing in the UK didn't look quite as quick but rode some excellent 1st +2nd corners to get himself in good scoring positions. Enjoyed the meeting. -
My understanding is they use a harder compound of tyre in Poland. Because with most of the tracks in Poland being throttle merchants you would think they would have a similar problem but I read they have access to a harder compound.

Unfortunate BUT no surprise. Would be no shock to see a planning permission for housing updated + announced in the next 12 months.

Peterborough Panthers Twitter Page - We will make an announcement over the future of the club at Thursday’s final home meeting of the season against Belle Vue (7.30pm). Would be very strange to make announcement last meeting of the season if not running in 2023. BUT nothing would come as a surprise - this is speedway we are talking about.

Prague is an appalling racetrack. The SGP's there are as dull as dishwater. Great city but the track needs banking.
-
Kennett Crescent would have to be a cul-de-sac.
-
If there was two SGP's in UK - I would probably go to both as I have no local track but with the cost's involved with Cardiff and distance of Manchester from home I would stay at Manchester simply due to logistics.

As long as Anlas pay for the bar bill at the AGM all should be good.

British Final 2022

Won't be making the trip from Surrey - Especially with the RMT strike on the 17th Sep - Avanti will be in a state of carnage. Will watch on Eurosport. -
Rev Limiters has been mentioned in despatches for a number of years with riders , tv pundits etc all stating that this was a possible way forward for the sport in order to bring costs down. I believe Rory Schlein mentioned it on numerous occasions in Speedway Star but have never seen or heard of it being tested on any occasion

The Anlas tyres have been shoddy since they were introduced. Seen many a rider putting photos and showing tyres absolutely shot to pieces. So is it the tyres or the material that is now used at EofE - remember Zagar moaning about the track shale on Eurosport early season. Safety is paramount if the tyres are not up to standard they should be binned completely. Nearly as farcical as the Intercontinental Final at Poole/

Hackett replied to spiegal's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
If Bewley makes the top 6 in the SGP standings - Fricke will qualify courtesy of 4th place tonight.
