FAST GATER

He is one of the all time greats of the sport no one can deny that ,if he was 25yrs old then I could understand his mindset of carrying on but IMO he will never be the rider he was .

Kurtz is the new Hancock !

That's my opinion as well we are just not seeing best of BZ yet wonder what's amiss but he still manages to stay on or near the top . I do think that Prague is not his best hunting ground for him a final and third place is more than an acceptable result . .

Said it won't be BZ night think he will just want to get in the final ,Kurtz or Holder to win .

I don't see it that way it could all change in the blink of an eye I think that Kurtz will be in the mix( he reminds me of how Hancock rode in the latter part of his career gate and go ) ,I would love BZ to win again but it far from a done deal IMO .

What a blow I do hope Dan makes a full recovery he will be missed in the GP'S without a doubt .

Sorry said before IMO anyone who rides a s/way bike is not a tart ,just to be able to ride and control one of these machines in the confines of a track with three other riders takes huge amount of courage plus a great deal of skill . Make no mistake I think BZ( his opponents are fortunate that he's not the best of gaters) is the greatest rider to put a leg over a bike but I can still admire the the skill /ability of other riders ,as Mauger I believe said "gating " makes the job so much easier .

That's what happened to BZ last year one really bad GP by his standards and he had Kurtz snapping at his heels for the rest of the series

The powers that be wants the main competitors to hopefully trip up on some occasions rather than it become a two or three horse race early in the series. The system we have now means you must make the final otherwise you very quickly have a mountain to climb . Whether we like it or not the idea is to level the plain-field( making it more of a lottery ) rather than letting water find it's own level which would invariable mean the series being dominated by the those that demonstrate consistency throughout theGP'S .

Fair point but ultimately IMO it is to stop BZ dominating the series !

I think the point is that it stops the usual suspects dominating the series as we know cream floats to the top, so if you introduce as much uncertainty as possible it can yield in an unexpected result . It's not the way I would like the series to be run as like many people I want the best rider on the night win ,in the case of this GP it should of been Bewley IMO !

You and I both !!!!

I read somewhere BZ sees this type of behaviour as positive because it's as a weakness in his opposition !

Morris should not be allowed near a s/way track just be a "yard -dog " to keep the meeting flowing !

BZ will be happy with 3rd place manages to make the best of a bad night by his standards !

Scott can do what PK did in his final season at Wolves knock in 6-8 on a regular basics and maybe the odd big score at home !

Have to agree well past his sell- buy date to me but as a whole I think this team could hold their own at home ,always good to have a new s/way team .

Not sure if it's true but I have been told this is his last season as a rider !

Lets wait and see when the kerb is put in at least they have the space to play with from what pics I've seen !

I'm impressed with what I have seen so far 400 mtr track should produce some good racing ,as has been said it will have to comply to get a license . Most of the work seems fairy straight forward they have the infra instructor it is more adaption to co-exist with the stoxs that needs to be done ,there will be a cost but assume that has been factored into the project .

Has he got that kind of money?

IMO how well he scores and if he can stay injury free will detemine whether this is his last season !

Yet the oldest member of that team is lining up for the Witches in 2026 and Plymouth In the CL ,decade and a half past his best !

I think it's not a bad team at all, no superstars although I think Emil and Jason were not quite the riders they had once been .

How do you know Scott has signed for certain did I miss something ?
