  1. there’s a big home track advantage there knowing where to ride also helps and with it having stock cars there’s usually soft patches where the holes have been filled in with the cars if it’s been wet a few days before on the track around the entry into first and third bends that’s usually covered over so you can’t see them and can straighten the bike up if not going fast enough there unless you really attack the track your coming off must be more falls there than any track in nl
  2. ht 11 fall was caused by riders entering the first bend together trying to avoid the concrete rut on the inside which was about 1.5/2 mtrs from the inside line and ran from just before mid corner to the exit hence why they ended up bursting the air bag right at the pit gate ,Glasgow did complain at ht8 after the same thing happened at the start and wanted some work done on the corner they did grade what shale there was into the rut but by the time ht 11 it was beyond filling and was really exposed if the concrete was smooth i don’t think it would have bothered riders much but the rut was about 40/50mm deep in some of it
  3. Glasgow complained after ht8 when the concrete rut appeared and after the crash in ht 11 the referee was called to look at the track and asked the 2 captains who both said it was pretty dangerous the Glasgow rider crashed because they were trying to avoid the concrete line mid corner as the concrete slab ran from mid corner right round till the start of the straight basically the racing line that every rider aims for
  4. after ht 11 but the Glasgow manager and riders complained after ht 8 when it started to show
  5. no wonder was the total opposite he came into the pits after the race walked over to wright and had a quiet word then went and sat in his chair at the side of the pits
  6. he was carrying too much speed and went into the side of starky and knocked him off he even came round after the race and said that to paul
  7. kyle has all his own equipment over there
  8. Broc has put so much time money effort into everything this year his fitness, diet ,equipment even moved closer north to cut down the travelling and has been up practicing midweek to try keep him sharp dew to only riding one league here i think ,sometimes when your trying too hard to get things right you go backwards he just needs to go back to basics and try to get a few good race meetings and pretty sure he will come good . It was pretty crap that a couple of fans gave his some stick after the monarchs match because that won’t help him
  9. Ulrich has new engine arriving this morning should hopefully be well on the pace if he can get it dailed in quickly tigers by 2
  10. Most of the private companies are now contracted to the nhs and most clubs that have 2 ambulances actually bought their own second hand one but still have to have enough medical staff to cover if one has to take a rider away and with medical staff at a shortage all over the country all clubs will struggle
  11. he will be riding in Denmark on a wednesday
  12. even if there’s no #1s out there get 2 decent riders that might score 8/10/12 points at home between them just off the top of my head say Palavora and sedgmen that would put wright to reserve with complin and would always have a strong reserve when ave changes strength in depth
  13. he must have been watching pickering do it in the main meeting great rider has big dog danglers to try pass that outside line another wrecked bike think that’s 3 in his first 4 meetings shame on his pocket but was sitting up in the pits after and was walking gingerly after the meeting
  14. Just read that Theo piper has a bad crash at the grass track at the weekend and might be struggling to be fit
  15. killeen will be good and won’t be at reserve for long i have seen him practice a couple times (his brother Luke is pretty good also can see him getting a team spot soon if equipment there ) , Sam hagon struggled in his first 2 rides last night then changed bikes different rider after, chargers and bullets will both be in the play offs as long as no major injuries or number 1s riders getting a premier spot as there no good heat leaders left
  16. Joe Thomson 8.52 Leicester Nathan Ablitt 6.29 Bv Luke Crang 6.41 Berwick sam BeeBee 5.16 mildly Sam Hagon 5.75 Ox Archie Freeman 3.00 BV Luke Killeen 3.00 Ox 38.57
  17. willy lawson has started racing road bikes don’t know if he would commit to nl racing
  18. if you can get some castrol r40 oil and put it on one of the sent burners with the candle underneath that you get for the house and it will give you that smell just dint put too much in the top of the dish thou
