THE DEAN MACHINE

watch it back in slow motion when pedersen dives under zagar he dosent hit him and they travel about 8ft together untill pedersen is slightly infront and it looks like there is a sight contact which was more than likely a foot rest catching the chain and sending zagars bike forward ,the impact of zagar,s bike makes the crash look worse than it is .if they had a front view i think people would see this. . It wasnt a dangerous move just a hard one but they all do it

Pedersen dives in ,zagar turns early to protect his line .they come together and travel around 8ft in control and pedersen dosent leave the white line ,then pedersen is slightly infront when there is minimal contact and zagar's bike straightens like a footrest has flicked a chain off and zagar goes down .its a hard move but not a dangerous one and from a front view you would see this. Correct decision to exclude pedersen but just a hard move that most riders would do in a GP. what happens after is what speedway needs .it gets people talking about the sport

it also not a borefest like soccer is

thats fine for the first 2 as they crossed the finish line but zagar didnt so shouldnt be awarded a point even if the race wasnt stopped. I know its unfair on zagar but isnt that FIM rules

FIM rules say they cant award a race. Zagar didnt cross the finish line but gets awarded a point ? . In a league match thats fine but FIM rules? Race should of been rerun

and there is speedways problem nobody challenges anything. Speedway is littered with bad ideas and they get steam rolled in unchallenged but much like the GP's i am not suprised you will not take up the challenge in your magazine (of which i do buy) because you dont want to upset your mates

and that is because nobody (riders mechanics,fans and machine examiners ) gives a damn about the dirt deflector and its claims to hold .it hasnt brought one person through the turnstiles and hasnt done anything for safety of the sport .

if you say so. All those years riding then it must of been people throwing rocks at me and they must have been the same ones at the czech gp last year because it couldnt of been shale from the tracks

of which thats what it has always done with or without dirt deflectors. They are a waste of money in a sport that can not afford it. Fine if thats what you want then let the sport dissapear into history because nobody will challenge the boys club .ive pretty much had enough of the way speedway is run. Self intrest and jobs for the boys are killing speedway. A good shake up of speedway starting with the bikes is needed but will it happen ? I doubt it because nobody will challenge anything because they dont want to upset their mates

RIP simmo

well that says volumes about the dd

as i said in czech gp go sit on the middle of 1st /2nd bend seats .it is almost unwatchable how much shale hits you .i sat there last year and had to stand at the back along with most others in the same area. Its an expence that is not needed in speedway

lets get all the riders to have a vote .if they vote to keep them then fine. And swap your tickets at the czech gp for seats on the first 5 rows about 3/4 round first bends and you will soon find they do nothing for spectators either, and i make no apology for looking out for the sports intrests instead of creaming whats left of our once great sport. and as some fans have said on here they get hit by shale. At scunthorpe some fans have clear unberellas on the first bend cause the dirt hurts so much. What does that tell you ?

reasonable point. He is stating it as fact without ever having used one. Lol .why should riders have to make the best of it?.its time for speedway to get its house in order and start with the bikes

completey incorrect "fitted properly or not " they dont do a damn thing and never have ,oh im sorry i have no idea what im talking about .i would be intetested to hear about your personal experiances phillip using the dirt deflector and not just quoting from your mates

Weslake speedway bike wanted . Pm me

The bikes ,of which todays bikes with the engines tyres and silencers dont help

Speedway is something that has hurt me many times ,emptied my bank more than once ,ended more than one relationship, makes me rant at least once a week, sometimes leaves me deflated,often leaves me wondering why i bother but above all else its utterly fantastic and is well and truly part of what makes me. To me its sport entertainment and a way of life

im not knocking the riders and to a point im not knocking scunny .my point is you shouldnt put out a team of 6 new riders in one go and therefore making the match a non event. Its not fair to the public. And why the hell use r/r .

no ive only been to one NL Meeting so far

This is the question. What is the point od the NL ? Is it ti train riders ? Or is it for fans entertainment ? If its for fans entertainment then scunny are short changing the fans of the league .if its for bringing on riders then it should be free to watch and riders should pay to ride. The league has always been a first step on ladder fir riders but it should never be at the expence of the entertainment for the paying public

not as many as that R/R bloke who made an appearance for scunny today

Ive bet on Harris for top 3 tonight and to be world champion . Brave or money to burn?

I will say this as a former rider and currently mechanic ,there are riders that will always help other riders with advice etc and they are not made captain but help anyway and there are riders who dont help are strangely are made captain and do nothing
