Holder was never going to back off, who would when so much is at stake? But just as nicki knows how to play situations holder knows how to ride the grass , he does it so much especially at Poole, 9 times out of 10 holder would barge his way through but this time it doesn't work, the stoppage of the race is the only thing that matters not what happens before it, as I said if nicki hadn't of gone down the race would not of been stopped yet the clash would of still happened, nicki doesn't cause Chris to lift , he lifts because he was squeezed to the kerb and the back wheel bit a bit of grip, at that moment nicki is 3ft away

dosent matter what happend pre fall nicki has done nothing wrong clamping holder , nicki fell cause holder lifted and hit nicki , look at the still photo's there is 3ft between them when holder lifts , i think nicki is the master a playing a situation and often looks for conflict but on this occasion he was hit by holder , unsatifactory start no chance , holder could of shut off but he was never going to and who can blame him but his actions caused the fall , were the red lights on when nicki clamped him ? no they came on after nicki fell , would the red light come on if nicki would of stayed on ? no , therefore the crash was the reason for the stoppage and chris holder caused it

Riders' First Names Trying To Identify
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to Parsloes 1928 nearly's topic in Years Gone By
A Jackson is Andrew (drew) Jackson ,he sadly passed away from complications from throat cancer in a few years ago , 2006 i think , he was born in Manchester and was British under 21 cycle speedway champion ,he lived in Wolverhampton and had a pub there up until his passing -
if nicki had fallen at the first point of contact i would of said all 4 back or even nicki to a dive but he didnt ,they touched and then were 2 foot apart when holder lifted and run into the side of pedersen causing him to fall on another note last night proved when done right speedway is the greatest sport on the planet
-
nicki came across holder and holder just didnt shut off (cant blame him its a world championship at stake )but that caused him to run into nicki twice ,he tried to force a hole which wasnt there , it wasnt first bendbunching it was a gamble that paid off for holder, nicki would of done the same but it dosen,t change what happened holder rode his luck and was even more lucky after that

Is Speedway Too Expensive Now ?
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to Super Blue's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
i think the way forward engine wise is to get GM/JRM or some other manufacturer to make a kit that comprises of a piston , conrod ,set of valves and springs and big end pin , these are the bits which break , get them to make them for long last reliability rather than speed meaning a bit more metal on them and a bit heavier, they are passed by the SCB as being all the same , once suplied they can not be machined or drilled or played with in anyway and must be used as they come like the silencer is , this way the riders all have standard engines as such , the riders can still use different cams and flywheels and compression ratios , the tuners can only change bearings rings and timing ,with the parts being a bit heavier and bulkier you will also cut the revs down a bit , not a great deal but some at least therefore helping reliability , all this depends on the manufactures making a kit that is a resonable price ,say £300-£400 per kit , all riders will be changing rods and pistons anyway so its not an extra expence and the kits will fit into the GM/JRM cases they have now , the SCB/BSPA should be onto these manufacturers now to see if it can be achieved ,as i see it if this was brought in all engines would be nearly the same(standard) but a lot cheaper more reliable so the riders pay less out , returning to 2 valve or uprights or using a new honda or other engine would cost the riders a fortune to change their engines ,this achieves the same result but with a reduced outlay on what they would be paying for next seasons parts -
Nicki Or Chris?
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to June01's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
i know he is controversial sometimes but just for the entertainment nicki p provides in the gp i want him to win -
jason is an ultra proffessional legend of the sport , he was always there at the SRA meetings and has great knowledge and care for the sport , he is a credit to the GP,s ,he has nothing left to prove and will be missed in future GP,s, hope we see him in british league racing again before he quits speedway altogether

THE DEAN MACHINE replied to MajorMauger's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
will the current crowd still be there if the admission rises £5 to £15, at the moment £10 is good value and but is £15 value for premier ?or even for elite ? -
we have tony atkin as guest , R/R for branflake and michael neale for luke ,but we will give it our all as usual
-
i dont think anybody really knows , i think it must be something to do with algebra or fractions or maybe russell grant knows in his stars or in the book of rocket science explained i think there is a section in which it explain's how you make such a simple sport into a complete and utter balls up
-
and the loomer road track was well prepared tonight
-
i believe ben reade is having a ride tonight so will most likely be back and luke is not riding for buxton cause he chopped end off his finger, we already got r/r for branflake so its a 3 pointer
-
i think he was british but was married to a russian women, he lived/lives in wolverhampton?, he got a grant to ride speedway from the government and i think he still rides in the southern track amateur meeting, thats all i know about him
