sorry but I'll have to whoosh you on that because it went stright over your head . Ave another read

If you were to standadrise engines , the fans on the terraces would definitely notice a difference , just take a look at Moto2 ,standardised engines, and racing that far outstrips Moto GP or F1

Semi pro speedway at semi pro admission just would not work , Gospeed and the BSPA would still expect professional fees to run it ,and after they have had their pound of flesh ,there wouldn't be enough left to rent a stadium with , unfortunately no form of motorcycle sport gets funded by local councils sports council etc ,unlike other minority sports , so Leicester Riders can happily play basketball in front of one man and his dog , because they dont have any bills to pay , we are paying them thorugh taxation

American Dirt track track on the half mile or even mile tracks , is nothing like what you would see here , in the usa dirt track is one of the disciplines for the AMA championship so big names from all motorcylcle sports compete in amercian dirt track ..

at least when the whole lot ceases the bikes wont go to waste like speedway bikes will , dirt track is a niche style of customisation of motorcycles in a similar vein to Cafe racers

a mate of mine helped Peter Boast start short track uk , made all the number boards and visited various promoters , wound up in kings lynn hospital with broken ribs and a punctured lung after getting run over in the first meeting . never rode short track again ,

yep seen the 16 lapper ,and have seen flat track ,short track, oval track , dirt track,track track or whatever it's called this week , the only comparison between the 2 , both go anticlockwise round a speedway track , I saw a round of the European flat track championship in belgium once .even the locals who are not the biggest speedway fans didn't like it ,

I dont see how it will . 1st of all nobody in their right mind would pay to watch it . second without the speedway tracks there would be nowhere to run it

I think RyMac has had more than enough chances to come good , Douglas maybe not , might be a good thing for some of these kids to get left out if they really want it they will practise and take every other opportunity to ride ,ready for when a chance comes . lets not have anymore Ryan Burtons please , from a non speedway background and had other peoples opportunities thrown at him , then just walked away back to MX like Matt Willamson

My guess the local council , fill them up with immigrants . Neither have any worries about the potential losses should they collapse, because it's not THEIR money .

Jack the ripper .lol

It also gives piss poor and perennial 3.5 point journeymen , the opportunity to take to social media with 5-6 point tallies, claiming they have had some sort of revelation and are the new Tai Woffinden . The reality of course is they have taken the extra points from raw beginners , won't stop their nearest and dearest and one or two hangers on ,from blowing an 1800's style London "pea souper" up their arses though . neither will it stop the pitiful excuses when some of the raw beginniers start to find their feet and beat them !

and me . or james chattin

Those riders who would ride for nothing are driven by ambition not by financial gain , there must be quite a few riders with great potential who have walked away because their face didn't fit , some of the people on the inside of speedway are downright vindictive ,

I know 1 who would have ridden for nothing ,given the opportunity way back

couldn't agree more . I assume Shelby has taken over Pauls pay to race agreement

He's busy ATM , having new boxes made with Briggo on them , to fit a Nippondenso rev limiter into

the lights went out after the crash . and he hit the fence where there was no airbag

Only time will tell . I dont really expect them to be in use much longer than april 2020 , first time somebody crashes because the limiter kicks in mid turn , or the misfiring leads to bore wash ,or worse still hydraulic lock that smashes the conrod , these things are history . lets just hope when the crash happens nobody gets seriously hurt . IMO theres no comparison between speedway and any other form of motorcycle racing . reducing the revs at the start will lead to problems of flipping people off as well ,

there is a rule that ignition must be from a single source and static , rev limiter could fall into that category , about 3 years back Martin smolinski had a Polish button fitted , (advances the ignition ) and Holder and another whining aussie reported him for cheating , several of the Poles had been using them for a while unnoticed ,remember those blasts around the fence from Gollob and everybody wondering where the extra speed came from !!

very much doubt it , rev limiters work ok with petrol and on tarmac , methanol is whole different ball game , and riding on a loose surface where a consistent level of spin means you can safely steer . how many times have you seen riders with the front wheel off the floor mid turn , yanking on the throttle to get the back wheel spinning and the front wheel back down , try doing that when a rev limiter kicks in !!

tuners of course ,££££££££££££££££,. care to name any riders Or in fact any ex riders who are in favour ?

the best way to limit revs is with your right hand , if you get that right you become a great rider like hans neilsen , I saw him break a couple of track records never heard his engines screaming for mercy at any time though . on the slick or knee deep in dirt

so were positive cutouts . solid block tyres and carb throat restrictors . how long did any of those compulsory items last ? . I'm guessing from your eagerness to promote them ,Briggs is involved somewwhere along the way ,

Just the same as the positive killswitch , solid block tyres , carb restrictors , foisted on the riders untested ,by people who don't have a clue about the effect , all things brought about with little or no thought , and all things that got dumped after somebody else had the expense of buying them , I forgot to say , the GP riders don't bother testing them because they have no intention of ever using them .
