  1. Any Belle vue regular fans out there please help me out here,when the track first opened maybe riders were new to the track but they did seem to pass round the outside of turns 3&4,but as the season has progressed it seem the only line to pass is right on the inside kerb and its seems to be getting worse.Does anyone who regularly goes to meetings there think its anything to do with the soft patch problem they had which held up meetings at the start? It just seems to me its sinking a bit and now the only piece of track which is anygood is right on the kerb.Be interested to know your thoughts.
  2. Come on Steve,please tell me you are joking and you are100% clear that Zmarick should be excluded? 1 At the point of collition BOTH RIDERS WERE on their back wheel so its impossible to say they were 100% in control. 2 Nki had been pushed all over the place during the evening and he wasnt going to stay on after his first ride when he clearly had a chance of bailing out before he actually did,so fair play to him for trying to stay on his bike,but where did it get him? He wasnt going to make the same mistake twice and made sure the race was going to be stopped.Im sure he thought it was going to be all 4 so it was a big bonus for him to have the pole excluded. 3 I can 100% safely say that neigher rider was in contol when the incident happened so has to be all 4.Steve please have another look again,and if you have found somthing i have missed ,ill be happy to admit i was wrong,but the key fact that both riders were on the back wheel at the point of impact means you cant call it either way.
  3. King is a good rider,but too nice a rider,and the other nations riders know this.
  4. ANYONE got an "Ermolenko free" sound device which doesnt involve his voice!! 1 all 4 riders back he say on turns 3 and 4!!! 2 some babble about london weather classy rider but ive have no words to decribe how bad and theutter rubbish he speaks from a brilliant career

  6. Maybe iversens friend Paddy "100 pint" Mcguinness, mistook Niels orders to clean his bikes,then go and have a guiness on him,he filled his tanks with his fav tipple and broke the sponge up into 2 pieces and chucked into his tanks as requested.!!!! Job done!!! ............ Im here all year for more of my jocks if people want to here them!!!
  7. Is there anychance someone with a speedway machine can go through some tests to see if it has any effect at all in slowing the bike down or not.
  8. ............. Well he put 2 fingers up to the K Lynn fans and management!!! .Love to see his sick note!!
  9. People have a pop a Havelock but love him or hate him you need people like him in todays bland world of sportsman.He gets punters talking about his bizarre camera antics,but then win people over with his passion for the sport and straight forward talking.I cant work him out but i would rather have him around the sport then not.Special mention to Josh Bates who despite having stupid rules against him that he has to ride in the main body of the team,rather then to spend a season at reserve,still continues to progress in the sport.Fair play to him.
  10. When someone starts his post like this i get an idea in my head what kinda person im a dealing with!!!.You dont know me,i say it as i see it.if you think im having a moan thats up to you.All im trying to do is put my point across.I still dont understand how Danish league fixtures mean Danich riders have to do theses first.Tungate who rides in both leagues is not needed by his Danish club and can ride for Swindon.DID HE HAVE A CHOICE?
  11. Complete joke that this fixture goes ahead .I can see it from both sides but the bottom line is common sense must come into play!!!!! eeeeer....maybe not,this is speedway,the fans dont matter,the inner circle of speedway works when a couple of people just have an opion to run at all costs,stuff the fans,stuff the sport,stuff everyone,if a couple of people say the meeting is on its on!!!! Dont worry we have mickey mouse and donald duck lined up if anyone else drops out.Just out of interest where are the 2 danes riding on friday night? Please dont tell me Danish league meetings which were run on a semi pro basis a few years ago,now topping any elite league meetings and uk clubs not having a say in the matter!!
  12. love to see the fans so involved,even getting covered in shale didnt stop their enjoyment!! It also seems that the female starting marshall has no problems getting the riders to line up quickly to race,its like she just she just gives them a couple of signals and their ready to race.Maybe the female touch does the trick and the riders do what their told!!!
  13. Actually he DID have he steel shoe on!!,the strap broke when he was doing some gardening!!! at the tapes. Kevin Doolan picked it up before the start of the heat,otherwise it could have been left on track.which could have been nasty.
  14. Nicholls superb all night passing riders. Cook followed Nicholls through for a 5-1 in one ride. B Pedersen even passed someone,even though he didnt want to do it!!! Steve Worrell superb all night Zagar lovely ride to pass BP Just shows if you are prepared to get stuck in and are in the right frame of mind ,you get your rewards,unlike some pampered so called stars of speedway who were well below their best.!!!
  15. I AGREE with you that Harris really shouldnt take guest bookings etc that stop him attending GP practice,but how is he supposed to be in 2 places at once!!! Its not his fault that the british semi final was on the same day as practice or am i missing something!!!
  16. OK You tempted me in again with AJ!!! ,think the bookie has won on almost every occasion !!! ,but here i go again!! AJ £40 MORE
  17. What are the pits like and is there good viewing for the fans to look at whats going on?
  18. I thought PK was struggling with injury leading up to the first GP but he won that!!,maybe he thinks its now in his race routine leading up to the GPs!!!
  19. Fantastic entertaining rider in the latter years at Wimbledon.Infact too entertaining one night,when he crashed,and his wife steamed into the open pits that people can se from the terraces and seemed to be saying enough is enough,and proceeded to pack his stuff away in the middle of the meeting.!!!!! When she tried to take his bike back to his van,Mark held onto it and a verbal discussion took place with a bit of armwaving thrown in.Ovcourse the fans on the terraces saw this and kinda joined in with all the antics.Eventually his wife calmed down enough and returned to watching on the terraces where she always watched,and it was all taken in good humour.Hope he tells the story better then me,it was so funny and made the evening for everyone.!!!!!! Think Mark went on to win another heat so maybe it was all good all round!!!!!
  20. Sorry Steve,i cant agree that Peterborough are to blame,from the start of the season they declared TWO race nights,and for that very reason you CANT state their is a problem because in hiring Cook there is more a question of how the rule can be interpretated and common sense can come into play so he can ride.If they ONLY raced on Fridays i can see your point.Im the first to slam double ups,and i really dont like them,but even i can see past my hate of the situation and say there isnt really a problem with cook racing in both leagues.
  21. The main stumbleing block seem to be Peterboroughs race night being the same as Belle vue,but is there anything in the rule book to say Peterborough have 2 race nights and they could say that their other race night being taken into account? Also could it work against Peterborough saying that they cant sign another rider they are interested in because he cant double up on their other race night?!!!! To me it seems the rule isnt watertight like most of the rules in speedway!!!!!!
  22. How have i missed all this?? must pay more attension during the winter months,but thanks for thar.
