FAST GATER

Maybe they will give Tai one as his last "throw of the dice " for him on the world stage to get closure at least at GP level !

I remember in the 70's Colin Goad not the exactly what you would call "svelte " ( at Elle Port) drilled every part of his bike ,it looked more like a Meccano model . Graham Drury father looked at it and said to him "would you not be better to eat a few less pies " everyone just burst out laughing including Colin .

The simple answer is it was designed to stop BZ winning again maintain interest with a last race decider being the ultimate dream ,problem is BZ didn't get the memo ! It was all on the last race though so not a complete disaster except for Kurtz fans .

No my point is that Kurtz's plan ( fair play to him I have no issue with him ) was to gate scarper off try and build up enough of a lead while BZ who was dead last in a least three of the last five finals fights his way to the front . I take nothing away from Kurtz ,Hancock won his last two titles that way I do however remember how people moaned it was boring something never said about BZ ! The big problem if there is one for s/way is BZ only thirty years old IMO has another five yrs ( barring injury ) riding at the level he is now.Might even get better who knows I certainly think there are more titles ,I could watch him winning them all day long personally because of the manner and skill which he demonstates as he goes about his business .

Imagine how good BZ would be if he could gate consistenly as well ! But he has time on his side .

His P45 should be top of the list for 2026

Spot on he wins races and titles the hard way not gating on a rocket ship !

I am sure they will try but I also suspect BZ & Co will be very busy over the winter planning number 7 WC !

My thoughts exactly spot on !

Not smirking now though !!

No he's better 4 WC on the spin the GOAT !!

All done to stop BZ and back fired !!

THE GOAT !!

🤞

Sadly I think this track is perfect for Kurtz !

I fear 1973 all over again Morris & Co will make it gate - go and we know what that means ! Hope BZ wins the final by half wheel having passed everyone else !

No disrespect to Kurtz ,this is my opinion as well ,he admits it's his gating but he's worked the oracle if he wins fair enough . IMO BZ is the most amazing rider the sport has ever had !

Scott looks like he did the business last night ?

I tend to agree although I'm not a fan of either I believe Doyle should get one more W/C

Would you give Doyle or Tai get one ?

Only beaten by the " Hancock Method " make the gate on a quick bike and hope the other two riders hold BZ up long enough for you to win !

IMO Sprint Race Result Kurtz Bewley Fricke BZ/Vaculik

I suspect he was just being mischievous ,would imagine he may get a W/C for next season .

Emil would be a great addition Artem always reminds me of Hancock's approach "gate and go " but at least it would stop all the moaning about them not being in !

IMO he dosn't need to do that he is just better than any of the other riders most of the time !
