Drove past the stadium a few minutes ago. Huge puddles all along Foxhall Road so the track has certainly had the heavy rain from earlier. Still lots of dark clouds and a light shower but these are being chased away by some blue sky and white fluffy specimins as I type. Unless the bad stuff comes back (not forecasted but can never tell this year!) I wouldsay all systems go.

It wasnt at the top end that we lost out though - Leigh paid 12 Morten paid 13 - it was at reserve. Following a good win in heat 2 Mat scored 4 from 4. Newman after heat 2 scored 8 from 5. I hope Mat will put that right on Saturday as if he does I think we will be in pole position with a decent lead.

Overall last nights perfornance was encouraging with regard to what sort of lead we could get from this one. Hopefully Leigh and Rohan dont have any after effects from their horror crash and Dak can turn in the kind of performance that we have come ti expect of late. I think we are capable of a 14 point lead to put us in the driving seat to take the cup.

Well done to the Rebels for a deserved victory. Nearly but not quite from the Witches with Dak below par and Mat outshone by Newman when it mattered. Cook was faultless but Doyle would most likely have done the same. Vissings kamikazee move in 13 nearly spoilt the night but didnt affect the result. If all matches had this kind of passion and excitement then speedway would have far less problems.

I agree with the lack of info point you make. My original reply set out my acceptance of the decsion but I had only found out of the decision following reading the Rye thread. With each of the other decisions of this ilk there has been a specific statement on the BPSA sitebut not for this one. It is also rather strange that the Witches site has not posted anything on the subject.

I agree that the track is the place to decide any tie.In this case though the only scoreline that wasnt an assumption was the aggregate at the point it was called off. If a restaging was possible then that would have been the right first call. It wasnt hence the decision made. My point was that it was assumed by many that the Comets would have outscored the Witches in those last heats(myself included) The same assumptions were there at heat 11 against the Diamonds but it didnt happen that way! Adds some spice to next years meeting so its not all bad!
