Rye House V Wolverhampton Sat 1st April
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to Dave Stummings's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
i asked Adam last night ,he said he has never rode at rye house and he wasn't in Chris neath testimonial -
yes , Adam scornicki has 2 on hire for this season

the other engine is not BMW , the guy who designed it did work for BMW but it has nothing to do with them , you don't plug it in to laptop to change anything , it' is still all mechanical but the ignition timing is changed by preset USB type plugs that you change when wanting different ignition timing , the engine has been around a few years now , it is a reliable engine , similar to GTR in that it is a twin cam , the oil stays in from service to service and it does 100 races between service

sugest you have a chat with Adam about his views on his the importance of British speedway to polish riders ,even if he was world champion he would still ride over here, he was an elite league no1 in 2014 at Birmingham up till his injury and was the top pole over here , don't always believe it's the polish authorities that stop them riding here , although they do create problems and more so lately there has been instances in recent times that the rider just couldn't be arsed to come but the club said he was prevented by his polish club

adam has always put British speedway first even when he was polish champion
-
And as he is riding on a British ACU licence he could ride for us in SWC 😉
-
he is ok , a bit sore but ok , however the bike fared less well , bent frame, forks and front wheel

No Loyality To British Riders
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to HAMMER180's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
that's what the PZN is trying to do , you sign a contract and you honour that contract but if your riding elsewhere and miss.a match your not honouring the contract , as I said the PZN is doing nothing wrong they are just looking out for their product and fans , the only downside is for us in Britain but we are not their problem, if British speedway was king and we imposed this we wouldn't care less what the poles thought , because they are tough about things like this they don't get top matches where a team consists of 5 guests and R/R which had happened here a couple of times here last season and wasn't because of injury -

they are trying to pay wage instead of points like football and they don't want riders to miss matches or even team practice ,that's what they are trying to protect , poland money issues are caused by where the money goes out not where it comes in like Britain, the money some of the stars in Poland get is staggering and that's even before they have turned a wheel , how would you feel if you were a promotors or a sponsor and you paid half a million over 2 year contract to a rider and then he missed a match to ride for someone else -

I agree with all that , there is one name in particular I could think of who we trained up , bent the rules to keep him at reserve in his first year and then he went on to be a star and then all but shafted British speedway and he is british -

I do love polish speedway cause as a product it is bang on , yes it has financial issues but that is not caused by a lack of fans or sponsors , they have both in large amounts and the PZN is doing what it felt is necercary to protect its product but my heart will always be in British speedway and god knows I've tried to put ideas forward and given my time to help ,as I've said the polish product (excluding finance ) is something we need to look up to and if you think about it all they are trying to achieve is what every other sports team in the world is doing already ,1 person 1 club is that such a bad thing ? -

Poland are not doing anything wrong with this , the only wrong part is it is to the detriment of british speedway , the poles are protecting the future of polish speedway and its fans ,if the boot was on the other foot we would all be praising the bspa, we however don't prioritize our own riders and even with the Coventry situation the fact that a brit hasn't a team place and some foreigners have 2 is shambolic -
Had another look in blunsdon today , nothing happening , also had a look round the new estate the back of the current home straight , some of those houses are no more than 200 metres from the big mounds of dirt that are on the edge of the carpark and the plans show that's the place where one bend is supposed to be . If this stadium gets built it's going to give new meaning to the phrase" armchair fans "

in your honest opinion is go speed good for British speedway in terms of media or do they hold the sport back?
-
they have spoken ,well Natalie has , the British final is the first meeting to be shown on June 19th
-
one question , in your opinion is go speed holding speedway back in media terms ?
-
not saying your wrong about the bspa but what does come across is your bitterness towards them , your fall out with them must of been pretty bad

has Eastbourne already not been sold to build a hotel and has this season and next then it's gone

The Goalposts Have Moved So...
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to thebaron's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
i said a similar sort of thing on my Facebook page a few weeks ago along with other ideas /thoughts etc , I got told I was being negative and I was seeing the sport through rose tinted glasses and that was the past etc ,on another thought I had about if teams or riders should pay for mechanics I got shot down well and truly by one of today's stars , I beginning to think it's a lost cause -
So what is the delay ?clearly there is nothing happening or even signs that work is about to start so there obviously a reason for the lack of work , has the planning been rejected or some other reason , either some sign of work or some answers are needed and soon
