  1. He didnt see the track staff with shovels working on 20m of track whenever Boro were on gate 4 either so no surprise really....
  2. much better than some with many years experience 😀
  3. Cam can only even have a chance to make the GP by entering the main Aussie Champs. For a rider from WA this is a huge additional expense. So far he has prioritised his finances preparing for the next British season. He is now really back to where he was after season 3. To a great extent it has then been the serious wrist injuries that has held him back rather than racing talent. A more disciplined approach to machinery maintenance has no doubt also helped.
  4. As ever there seems to be be more smoke and mirrors than in a travelling fairs fun house (And thats speedway generally not just Boro)
  5. If that is the case and upwards of £40k has been needed just to get the Panthers from August to the end of the season then the set up isnt viable within whatever the current business plan is. Whether its Ged or someone else they will need to look for a diferent way in the future.
  6. Dropping the clutch before the magnet release is an infringement even where the rider does not touch the tapes. Gaining the split second ahead of human reaction times by anticipation is an unfair advantage gained
  7. Which equals a total farce IMO Absolutely and all taking at least as much time as and causing delay as the the re-start scenarios.
  8. Then sooner rather tgan later you will get this - Rider 1 in gate 2 jumps and so gets out in front of Rider 2 off gate 1 (the ref will exclude Rider 1 at the end) A - Rider 1 clamps Rider 2 on the kerb allowing his partner Rider 3 to run round the outside and win. Or B - Rider 2 tries to pass Rider 1 and causes him to fall and is excluded. Is Rider 2 reinstated as Rider 1 should already have been excluded or do both exclusions stand? Post race amendments would far worse than the current frustrations IMO.
  9. Its cheating and shouldnt be allowed. However to get the decision right it needs the right technology - transponders etc and an immediate link to the ref
  10. Its not a ban. Its a health issue. Standard guideline is that you should not return to work until at least 48 hours after sypmtoms cease in order to avoid the risk of cross infection.
  11. I do tend to agree actually. A working PA used efficiently to keep the fans informed should be a basic that is never missing. Perhaps its because the section I sit in at Foxhall is a PA 'blindspot' that Im now used to having no reliance on any announcements.
  12. The options are far from limitless.Make it part of the enjoyment - debate with your mates whom may go where and see if you get it right etc Glass half full rather than glass half empty 👍
  13. yeah you will need a guest each week to make it realistic 😆
  14. Surely a draw is the least likely result statisticslly so correctly predicting one should actually gain extra bonus points BTW I dont want to play ☺
  15. Thank you. Interestingly the score from the Tigers top 2 (Nicholls and RR) was 21 and is the highest combined return from those positions of any of the 4 Foxhall visits this year.
