  1. The engine paul was testing belongs to Kelvin Tatum he has had some of the lakeside riders try it to see how it goes A few other riders are trying the ones the belong to the BSPA I know of a good few that have tried the loan ones but don't seem to get to grips with it it's either a hit or miss and there are a few Junior riders buying them just for the saving on maintainance which might help in the long run giving them time to get it working for them
  2. See a few GTR engines have been put up for sale and going back to their GMs
  3. Never saw much of him but you can be sure he would have been sore the next day the adrenaline would see him through the meeting and maybe a few pain killers
  4. He is in the line up at Armadale a week on Friday in a Nl type open meeting so hopefully his injury is not too bad and back on the bike for it
  5. When you look at the championship times of 63-64- and 65 seconds in the reserve race it never looks as if the winner of the NJL races are only a second a lap slower 67/68 seconds
  6. Aye maybe just maybe nothing to do with it end off
  7. Aye maybe just maybe he just did what he was told to do !! I have been helping him since he came to Glasgow so think I know him well
  8. Common knowledge lol Strange at no point until he was in the ambulance did he say to me he had a sore back only his ankle and that's what he told the medic when they spoke to him when he came back in the pits he told them he was ok sore ankle but could move it no problem and was just saying why would the medics stop for a cigarette outside if they had someone inside needing medical attention
  9. Stewart and Richie were both helping to fix the fence were they not and the medics should not have stopped and had a cigarette outside the track while Coty was seemingly badly injured in the back
  10. l That's what it looked like from the pits area Richie was there for a good while helping ,the ref also came down when Coty was taken into the ambulance but the medics just closed the door on him and shut the blinds so no one could see inside and it stayed like that till the ambulance left where one of the medics stopped in car park to take his car out the carpark andhave a cigarette while Coty was still in it so he was not in a rush lol
  11. when you had a Glasgow rider and their manager making a attempt at fixing the fence when the rest were standing looking at it then saying there was maybe 4 burst airbags when they only had 2 spare but somehow still managed to get it fixed and when the medics came over to Coty and Richard straight after they got back into the pits and both said they were ok and did not need anything but Coty did say he only had a sore ankle but nothing to bother about because he was moving it freely I was helping Coty in the pits at this time then the ref asked for the medics to take there place back on the track the next minute Coty is being led into the ambulance by the team manager everybody in the pits then new what was going to happen the track ambulance took him to the hospital after the meeting where he sat for hours before seeing anyone they X-rayed his ankle nothing broken then let out
  12. They had already reached ht 10 and it would have been on the 3rd rerun
  13. Pretty sure they bumped a reserve last year and he scored more than that in his first meeting last year
  14. Heard tonight Danny ayres not riding tomorrow after bad crash tonight at Berwick
  15. Had a good shower last 10 mins the track really needed it thou and now the ground is starting to dry up already
  16. So they are not all really the same then , the cam is probably the main component for peak power performance he maybe has a different cam for small tracks medium tracks and big tracks that makes a hellava difference if your buying a sealed engine and if the warranty is only for a sealed engine guess you can't change the cam
  17. I would have liam in before lee Payne and Jye any day if the points allowed it liam can beat any rider around berwick as he has done many times before but riding #2 and being out in ht one is always a hard one, and the way teams are structured this year the number 2 only really has one easier race ht 8 the rest are always going to be hard to get a point or 2 being at reserve I think he would bang in the points think he won most reserve hts last year and that's what was boosting his confidence win your first race and your high in confidence and that's what brings wins pretty sure he will be back there sooner rather than later I hope
  18. Don't think Busch will be back for a while and I think coty will get a new ave after Saturday and will probably drop to reserve if still there and maybe perks moving into the main body and will giv Redcar a few points to play with and could maybe change the complete bottom end Don't think Busch will be back for a while and I think coty will get a new ave after Saturday and will probably drop to reserve if still there and maybe perks moving into the main body and will giv Redcar a few points to play with and could maybe change the complete bottom end
  19. The primary chain oiler pipe could have burst as it runs beside the basket under the cover and some dirt could easily have got in the tank when refuelling but most riders have in line filters on the fuel lines
  20. No guest until he rides one meeting and was told tonight he won't ride for 4 days dew to illness
  21. They did not have enough water because the water board had to cut the supply in the area dew to some emergency work and never gave them any notice they were putting water down most of the morning and when they went to refill the tanker again from the main they found it had been switched off and the big tank they keep on top of the hill was only enough to half fill the tanker to do the complete match so had to watch what they were doing plus the wind was drying the track as quick as the big tanker could spray it out
