  1. Given the current race format optimum line-up is a strong top 2, four solid middle order riders and a reserve on a minimum average (hopefully one capable of improving).
  2. But with the best will in the world it can still be a time consuming process.
  3. 18 weeks from granting of planning consent.
  4. Mason era, and yes I got it sorted but it was an unwarranted hassle.
  5. I got a ticket for parking more than 4 hours, so I wouldn't rely on it
  6. Just to point out that like Leicester there's a 4 hour limit on the One Stop car park.
  7. 7.1.1 Under 16 - 23 days 16-19 - 12 days 20+ - 9 days
  8. Great news, but there are clearly a number of hurdles to jump (notably planning and funding) before we can witness tapes rising on a new era in 2023.
  9. So where does Kyle go (He fits at Redcar for the next 48 hours before new averages come into force). Need some more Kent riders, maybe we could entice Ben Morley or Jake Mulford in at no 7.
  10. Moving the floodlights would have. But it would have been too expensive so they were left in place. That cost Denny Pyeatt his life and it was only after Craig Featherby hit a lamp standard at Peterborough that the safety standards were changed for the better.
  11. You should offer to contribute to http://speedwayplus.com/ Or the Friends of Speedway publication 'The Voice'
  12. I'd suggest that by 1992 Per Jonsson was the world's top rider. He certainly wasn't in 1990 but from 92-94 he was there or there abouts.
  13. Plus you get dizzy. It's better at larger tracks (Long Eaton 25+ years ago was my first), but I am inclined to agree.
  14. Comes up on Wed 29th at 6.10pm when I looked for it
  15. Pretty sure I went to Brough in 1984. They finished bottom of British League after an ill-advised elevation.
  16. I'm guessing Rob may have ghosted the Schroek and/or Courtney pieces, but the others all come from real contributors. I think the OP does have a point, four of the articles in the front half of the programme do cover similar ground (the exception being Rob's interview with Luke Killeen), but the back half contains no less than six original and distinctive articles, including a particularly punchy piece from Alan Bates.
  17. Three of whom are riding in the CL this season (Clegg, Sarjeant, Shanes) - a pretty good hit rate
  18. So nearly Berwick appearances 11 Guest appearances 10 http://www.gbspeedway.com/2022/ridercareer.php?mc1=s&mc2=rc&mc3=x&mc4=x&name=Chris Harris
  19. Because British speedway needs a supply of talented young riders, and few tracks have the capacity to provide significant track time to youngsters. A few weeks ago it was a real pleasure to see Ben Trigger riding against Leicester and witness his progress. It's good for the sport
  20. Newcastle still appear in League table on BSPL site, but have been removed from latest published GSA.
  21. Mm terrible luck to loose Barker and have him replaced by a guy who could only score paid 17 Still a good performance by Glads and sounds like they have good cause to feel aggreived.
  22. Which will be aproblem for Brum as his GSA continues to fall (even if not riding)
