  1. I asked last week on here as I saw a newspaper article saying he has quit the sport but nothing else was said about it
  2. Really hard to pass but it seems really hard for the camera man to capture it when it happens
  3. Has drabik quit ?? I just saw an article in polish where I think it said the manager said he was sick but it’s not true he has lost his enthusiasm for racing , google translate is never the best so anyone know
  4. Milik reminds me of a rider who his bravery is bigger than his talent , he is not scared to mix it but he rides right on the edge and sometimes over it, he isn’t dirty just wild
  5. So anybody any the wiser what’s happened to drabik??? Positive Covid result ? Has he heard he going to be banned and Wroclaw didn’t want his points deducted like the were for rybnik and Laguta ??? or just dropped him ??? Or injured ??
  6. The result isn’t in doubt but Wroclaw are certainly making hard work of it
  7. Good to see rybnik putting up some sort of fight, still think Wroclaw will win this by 20 though
  8. Doyle just said they made up and he would of done the same and said all the top 3 engines will be tested and let’s hope they all 500cc
  9. That track looks really rough and rutty especially coming into the turns and it’s not making for good racing, zmarzlik looks in a class of his own
  10. Yes but the original tickets were sold before covid reared it’s ugly head and it sells out quickly every year and unless people had foresight about covid the original Saturday would of been sold out too or at least close, what’s happening on the Friday or at any other GP is irrelevant
  11. Thinners, Brake cleaner , anything that dries quickly , not wd40, wd40 was used by some including me to make fitting the tyres easier but only round the rim of tyre not on the tread
  12. While there are always rumours around and it’s true when someone is going well these rumours are vibrant but I was there with the tyres cheating in the 90s and I saw with my own eyes a modified silencer from a top star and it wasn’t just the hole drilling either which was widespread a few years ago, even in poland right now they are thinking of introducing fitting a standard tanks before meeting, cheating has always gone on and always
  13. I did hear a few weeks back that mitas has new owners and they were saying there is not enough money in producing speedway tyres but anyway anlas seem keen so why not, what happened to the golden tyre ??
  14. I can remember in the late 90s when the tyre softening reared its head again and I think it was around then they brought in fitting a tyre at the meeting, someone would bring 14 tyres and the machine examiner would write the date on the tyre with a white marker pen and then the rider would fit his tyre, some would fit the tyre in the pits some would go to there van and fit it, not saying it happened but remember the saying “here is one I prepared earlier” with the correct date writ on comes from the van 10 mins later I think that died out in recent times as I never saw it in my mechanic days but I think the focus of the cheating changed from tyres to fuel and for a time silencers
  15. I think Częstochowa got best chance to get 2 points at leszno ,can’t see Lublin hitting 53 against falubaz which will give falubaz the vital point
  16. Was ken bear a tac sub then cause that has to be one of the poorest team managers decision this season
