I wish Buster would buy himself a decent watch he said he needed to do about 20 minutes track work, well it was nearer an hour Buster just loves to get his big boys toys out and he went round so many times i started to get dizzy.
Why could'nt both captain's do 4 laps then make a decision. Buster's outrage was probably heat of the moment stuff i would think he might think differently in the morning.
To be fair to the riders it's their necks on the line not Buster's.
Batchelor looked like a novice at times he did'nt seem able to get round bends 3 and 4 and then he slowed up looking for Heeps to pass him but Heeps slowed up like he did'nt want to,very strange goings on there.
Some terrific racing at the AFA tonight track looked good but then it should be as Buster got all his toys out and done about 12 laps, would have finished about 20 minutes earlier otherwise.
Loved the one off world finals at the Empire stadium never missed one from the late sixties onwards and got home about 1 o,clock sunday morning now it's about 3 o,clock and a long drive from Cardiff.
Agree with all you have said, I have also read ''Tragedy'' and now understand more of what could have made him do what he did although i am not condoning his actions. Saw him ride many times at different tracks and he was simply brilliant.
