  5. because they come into the corner close to the fence it was the fence that caught the shale and if you look the riding line into a corner is usually void of shale after the first race if you had sat half way round the bend it would of been a different story , i sat half way round the 1st and 2nd turn 4 rows back in prague and was shot blasted for the whole meeting it was so bad all the poles in front of us went and stood at the top of the steps ,the fact is they dont do anything ,i have seen this from the teracing and from the track , there are people who will deffend them but offer no proof other than their mates say they work but they dont , this is not a personal attack on barry briggs ,he does some good worthy things but the dirt deflector isnt one of them and has done nothing to make speedway any better since it was brought in , if you need proof for yourself go stand behind a bike off the start line you will be well an truly shot blasted, its a waste of money that speedway dosent need and cannot afford
  6. Good -air fences .Sitting still at starts (no rolling) .Cut outs Bad-dirt deflectors .new Silencers(beyond a joke) .Tyres( should be made for wet tracks aswell) .Oil catcher on end of breather pipe .Enviromental mats ,oil comes from the ground its just recycling it .Tatical double point rides .Man on man last season( the worst idea ever ) .Allowing titanium .The stupid rule about a finger hole in front chaingaurd .the laydown wasnt a good idea but its not a rule
  7. It just needs one rider to buy it get a result and everyone will have it . I think all the gp riders have already tested it by now. Speedway bikes are very easy to ride but racing them is rocket science I wish i were as good a rider as i am at explaining speedway
  8. titaniums performance apart , speedway is all psychological , you have to believe you will win , you can have all the best equipment money can buy but without the belief you wont win , to believe in yourself everything has got to be perfect and if another rider has got titanium parts and you havent you start to doubt your bike is good enough (may not be fact ) but you will think it and that slight doubt is enough for the oppostion to beat you , speedway bikes are really easy to ride but to race into a 1st corner with 3 other idiots takes 100% belief and the slightest doubt in you or your bike means you wont win . i cant explain it any simpler than that
  9. In the real world no they wont but we are dealing with a generation that believes a soft drink with enough sugar to kill a horse really does give you the edge over you rivals and the same belief will be for titanium.
  10. The weight of titanium rod and valves and any other other part used is only goin to be a small difference from the steel ones but it is claimed that it will produce an extra 1.5bhp which is nothing really but in a riders mind it will feel like a lap. An extra 1.5 bhp is useless unless it it can be put on to the track . It definatly wont be any use at a track like lakeside where 1.5bhp less is better but riders will still want titanium and they will have it and sadly the fans are the ones at the end of the chain who will end up paying for something they couldnt care less about and does nothing to enhance the sport
  11. and didnt antonio lindback ride one of rickardsson's special frames and say it was the worst handling bike he had ever ridden
  12. yes what you are saying is correct in theory , but with speedway being mostly in the head ,riders will look for any advantage whatsoever and buy whatever the latest trick bit is ,if it works or not dosent matter , if chris holder came out in next years gp with a rubber glove over his front mudgaurd and says its a new design and wins the gp every rider will believe this is fact and buy one ,a few years ago they came out with adjustable headstocks on the frames ,half the riders hate them ,half dont even know how to use them but they all got them because a few riders like them , this placebo effect is not just in speedway its in all motorsport , they will see the guys at the top have got titanium and straight away they believe they are at a disadvantage ,its already in their head that they are beat ,and when that happen you wont beat them and thats why everyone will want it ,it dosent matter if it actually better performance or not ,its just believing that you are on the same level i am told the rev limiter will not be in till next season
  13. I have questioned before why its still not banned for league matches and just let the gp riders use it
  14. There future of speedway has got to be a level playing field and this is going the opposite way and just adding extra cost that is not needed Speedway is littered with parts that are no better than the basic ones but riders at all levels buy them cause of the "gp riders use it" and titanium will be no different. All this is doing is making speedway more and more about the engine and less about the rider and that will be the end of speedway
  15. But if everyone was driving a ford fiesta its a level playing field because its not litterd with faster ferraris . And it would be a better sport for it. I know they buy these parts for the look, im one of them
  16. This decision should of been based on how many extra people titanium will pull through the turnstiles. The answer is none. Ban it. It has no benifit for speedway at all. Nobody wants ity
  17. I agree it wont make a difference but both pl and nl riders will want and will get these titanium parts. Why do they use straight back ends instead of loops. No difference in performance but double in price. Why do riders insist on straight pull wheels with fancy anadised rims?. They dont spin any faster than a standard jawa ones ,they will buy these bits. This decision is insanity with no benifits apart from the manufacturers
  18. the introduction of titanium benefets nobody in speedway , the riders are losing out the pockets and the most important people of all in speedway the fans (remember them) it isnt going to improve speedway one bit so why is it being allowed ?, imo its either the people who allow it are really really stupid and cant see the wood for the trees in which case they shouldnt be allowed to make decisions or they are accepting sweetners to push for it to be allowed , there can be no other reason for it , its just plain madness and another example of the killing of speedway . i heard a quote from one member of the bspa say "but a titanium con rod will never snap " well let me tell you when a piston breaks and they do, it usually takes a rod with it and it wouldnt matter if it was made of kriptonite it will still be bolloxed and need a new one , :mad:
  19. You would think there would be a statue after all ive done for speedway in widnes.
  20. it might be all talk but that reads a lot more impressive than anything our lot have ever put out
  21. There is a bellend road in london named after ? Well i will leave you to guess who
  22. They are talking about modifying excisting silencers .they dont know what to do next they are like headless chickens. This silencer issue is a sad reflection of the way speedway in general is being run
  23. Good to see a club being proactive and keeping their fans informed and in peoples minds. Keep it up and hope you have every sucess in your venture
  24. ask "the know" on here ,he has ploughed a fair bit into sponsorship of speedway
