That’s what you get when you set a 42 point team ave fill the top end with big riders and just see who’s left on a 2/3 to fill the bottom end they should introduce 2 even 3 reserve races and the reserves should then race the middle order

It cost over £8k for a new mx bike theses days £5k for a decent second had one and parents pay around £50 every weekend to race so speedway is pretty cheap and can be run on a budget, a decent well serviced engine for a nl rider should do 40 heats if it is looked after before it needs a service .

Championship Predictions 2026
mac101 replied to Paddy The Rebel's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I think this year is going to go down to the wire and bonus points will make all the difference for all teams. I Agree about Poole young reserves they might struggle if they can’t gate at Poole and might find it hard to pass stronger reserves. I think Worky and Edinburgh could be the dark horses and at Glasgow it will all depend how the track rides too slick and they will struggle for bonus points and if it’s got plenty grip like the last few meetings like the semi final and final last season they will get plenty bonus points and be hard to beat at home -
14 clubs 2 home 2away maybe chuck in a cup completion would give riders more meeting than if they were doubling up so would earn more money I don’t think any rider riding in the championship earns double the money riding premiership either
-
Think they will get under 3 point ave rider and hoping the team ave drop enough to fit max in
-
Will probably be in this weeks star when it comes out

2026 Premiership is Go! - At least 5 teams
mac101 replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
So you might only have 10 home meeting this season if you get knocked out in the first round of the cup completions or 11 if they get another cup to play for maybe all Premiership teams should put together a 5 team NL Team to fill in all the blank weeks to keep people interested -
Back in the day 😂seems to be the norm on here these days

If you crash and bend your bike or your engines blows up in your first race what do you do ?
-
Usually the club supplies the tyres but riders bring their own fuel oil plates etc but most usually have a sponsorship deal for them
-
Don’t think Danyon will be fully fit would Alfie Bowtell fit in his place
-
He was out on bail with a ankle tag which will monitor his movements and they are not usually allowed out after a certain time at night and would have to be in his place of residence every night but he said he was caught at a girls friends house so broke bail conditions so was taken back to do his full sentence

The traffic cone is on the Duke of Wellington statue in Glasgow is a beloved, decades-old tradition started by students in the 1980s, symbolizing Glaswegian humour and defiance against authority; despite council attempts to stop it, public outcry and iconic status made the cone a permanent, evolving feature, representing local pride and even current social messages people change the cone to various football colour but goes back to normal after a few days 😂
-
Like a lot of away riders that come to scunny once or twice a season they struggle but once you ride there every week as your home track you will get the set up dailed in and become better around there

2026 Premiership is Go! - At least 5 teams
mac101 replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
With the top league clubs starting without any tv deal and some loosing sponsors I guess some will be loosing £60/70k before they pay a penny on riders signing on fee etc why are they going to help a nomad club start up ? I am pretty sure there is no new club coming next year but only time will tell -
Just quoting what he said in the star he says there was nobody in any off the houses
