Tough to call but certainly a good marker for both sides seasons. Ayres, Perry & Harris all in good form plus if Lawlor & Greenwood have good nights it could be a tonking. A lot of pressure on Jenkins to score well along with Mildenhalls heat leaders as i can't see Verge, Woods or Ruddick contributing a great deal.

Certainly thought he would be more in the mix. Anybody know if he was on last years GTR or the replacement as im told the original had issues?

Sounds like a slightly concerning night at Lynn in terms of team performances although Danny Phillips upturn must be considered a plus. Ive said often in the past that i am not a particular fan of Locke, Hampshire or Whitmore for various reasons and can see it being a long season for Young Stars followers. From updates & comments Hampshire clearly needs some setup tips & would think that Locke would be more prosperous running at the easier number 7 berth. Probably the biggest concern would be Kinsley who was in great form over the winter and could do with rediscovering it quickly as only 2 heat wins at home will see this Lynn side become whipping boys if they are not careful.

Never been a fan of R/R but i agree it would take a fair overhaul of the rules to make things workable especially in the NL. Yes Brum have taken full advantage in the past (Sam Chapman) but plenty of others have too. The rules are there to be both adhered to & exploited. Things will change when Hay drops to reserve & Brum could well have a problem as early reports on Hay & Leek have not been particularly favourable.

Nice problem to have. Hopefully a decent group rather than the good, bad & ugly

Whoops. Days definitely out / wishing it was almost the bank holiday weekend.

P&P today plus number 7 try outs. Was/is anybody there? Who were the riders trying for a team place and who looked the most impressive?

For me so far Howarth, C.Wright, Bewley, BWD & Luke Harris have been impressive. From those who i expected a bit more both Holders, Grondal, Berge & Bacon.

As with almost everything the new promotion has done I applaud your approach and just hope Jamie is ready and safe for NL racing. There has been a dramatic upturn over the past couple of seasons of riders included with limited experience and in my view the safety of all riders competing is down to the promotions who track them (not implying that is the case here as I know nothing about the lad). Fingers crossed it works out for all involved.

Given the race number & kevlars i would say thats Dave Mears. Blue background & white numbers points towards the 350cc class

As far as i know its a case of hunting around for results. A lot does pop up on here and a few teams have their own websites/facebook pages but thats about it. There is also a Junior Leagues section on the Speedway GB website but how often it gets updated i don't really know.

Big gamble including a rider who has been away for so long / lacks racing experience but the proof will be in the pudding either a success & excellent PR for the My First Skid or a clanger. Either way the Warriors tend to show loyalty and Thursday will be a useful yardstick as to his potential progress.

Big shame as the fans at Mildenhall are some of the best but the track lets the club & team down badly. Thought about attending today but glad i gave it a miss having been bitten a couple of times last season. Think its most likely i will be getting my extra speedway fix elsewhere this season as Rye, P'boro, Lakeside & even Eastbourne seem more appealing.

How is the track looking for the weekend after a winters rest?

Looks like a double header now Kestrels vs Falcons & Kestrels vs Wildcats. Im guessing the amateur individual scheduled that day has been knocked on the head?

Brilliant news. Well done to all who stood firm & together to see this through by preserving the highly successful MDL & introducing the SDL. May they both continue to flourish for many years to come.

To replace Compton? Reckon my Nan would do a similar job

Car park carnage as ever at rye. Already chock full and only one parking attendant scratching his head

So if Freddie had 2 GTR's who had the other one? and did they use it?

And what are the service costs in the UK? As ive said before im all for choice but a sole engine requirement would generate a monopoly and ultimately drive prices up as you have to buy a GTR whatever the costs. At present riders can choose where they service their engines, to what level and how much. Choose whether they wish to ride GM, Jawa, GTR or A.N.Other and that is the perfect scenario. There are currently very few enforced equipment uses in speedway & long may that continue.

20+, 30+ ......is this the winning margin or the fell remounted count of Locke & Hampshire?

I believe Ipswich got a facility for Kyle Newman so the precedent has been set.

Bad news for Adam. Good news for Eastbourne as I'm certain they will be cooking up another rider deal soon.

I'm not against the engines existence and all for freedom of choice but I would strongly appose compulsory use. In the same way that electric cars may be cheaper to run but how would the driving population feel if they were told it's the only vehicle allowed on UK roads

Completely agree with every single word of the above spoken. As for the use of Iwade has this been confirmed how it will run? As i am led to believe MDL/SJL would require an SCB referee & appropriate first aid cover? Hence why the current matches piggy back onto league meetings to reduce costs.
