Whilst there does seem to be plenty of British riders about, I don't think many of them are getting team places at premier or elite level. Perhaps one of the forum statasticians can come up with some figures ?

Typical of our speedway "leaders" to reject this competition. Our new academy scheme would be the ideal start point for young British riders to progress to junior championships. Having seen some of our under 15's and budding CL riders I think they would actually do well, given the right support.

Try using your brain SCB. The weather forecast was made days earlier, plenty of time to inform all riders, fans etc; of an earlier start time.

During the preceding Conference League match presumably! Your comment is about as sensible as the organisation of the meeting. If the CL meeting had started say 2pm, the under 15's would have been finished before the track became unsafe. It would be nice if the speedway authorities were as professional as these young riders.

I dont know why but Ole seems obsessed with slick, hard tracks. BSI need to realise that the fans ( and riders probably ) want more chances of passing. I think they are considering using more permanent tracks next year, but they will only produce good racing if Ole does not interfere with them !

I would like to say ******** to the organisers who did not have the initiative to start the meeting a couple of hours earlier, especially given the weather forecast !

I think it is a great idea, add in a speedway training academy, and fund it by skimming off a bit of TR's sky pocket money.

I suggest that the British Championship is run at the end of the season with automatic entry for the highest average British rider in every EL + PL team. The winner, and winners of all other countries domestic championships automatically go into the SGP next year to contest the world championship.

Thanks everyone ( M6 info )

Info please, whereabouts is the toll section on the M6 ? Thanks in advance.

What happens if there is a dead heat in an elimination race in the SGP ?

Did anyone see the burn on Scotty's leg during the SGP, bloody hell it looked bad !

Couldn't agree more Marky Boy, but try telling that to the clowns in Rugby.

Yes , but it would negate the pupose oF of the new Toll Road Anything to screw up a toll road !

It would be great if it happens, good luck to all those involved.

There is a guy called Ashie, new to the forum, who is asking about the possible Long Eaton revival. Long Eaton thread page 1. If anyone can help with information please post.

Very poor decision, obviously the fans dont count anymore.

Mostly good so far Not sure about grading, we will have to see how that works out But why on earth are they keeping the golden double whammy ***p, and not only that , they have introduced another golden whammy tac sub ***p, didnt they pack their brains when they flew out !!

Congratulations Nicki, well deserved. A more consistent GP finisher than both TR and JC.

Congratulations Tomas, a brilliant effort. Take that Czech federation ! PS. great race suit !

David Norris, when he said the track curator should have been buried under it !

Well done Robert, thats good news.

:?: Read in speedway star that Robert Dados should be riding this season. Didn't he have serious personal problems recently ? (hope I have the right person ) . If he is back it is good news, can anyone give any more information ?.

8) I'll second that.
