  1. What about Robert Lambert? What would his average be? All i do know is, we need to change riders. Teams like Somerset seem to change a rider or 2 every season and still manage to do well. And let's try and get a rider that can goes to those type of tracks and pile in the points. Someone is definitely losing their team place if the points limit stays the same, so who will it be? I'm just hoping it's not Worrall, the lad is a classy looking rider with much potential and since his drop to 5, we can see what he can really do.
  2. Some riders obviously don't have the killer instinct which is needed, which is probably why their careers have stalled.
  3. It does seem like we get ourselves in possible positions to win things, but it just doesn't happen, I hope this isn't going to be another one of those times. Are we stronger now? Cameron and Worrall are racing a lot better now, but to counter act that, gino is now scoring less and mortens great purple patch sadly finished a couple of months back. I think we definitely need more than 8, more like double that, but if our whole team does all turn up on the same night, I think we could get that amount.
  4. So being realistic, how many points lead do we need to take away in the cup? It's a track we are okay at, so I'm thinking about 16 should possibly be enough. Can we get that type of lead is the next question? Mmmmm not sure, but yeah I think we could if we don't throw away stupid points by going through tapes and falling off in points scoring positions, and using the form reserve on the night to good use.
  5. But it just makes no sense to me, why not ride the fastest line? Maybe it's cos I have done various forms of racing, who knows. What I do know is that if I am not using the best and fastest way around a race track, I won't win, or give myself a chance to win or even stay in front of my fellow racers. Anyway, I will shut up now.
  6. I'm not being hard on the team at all, it's just my honest opinions.
  7. Sounds like the Somerset riders just wanted to win more and had the killer instinct we so badly lack. Only riders that really want to win squeeze through the smallest gaps.
  8. Well they wouldn't want to use the dirt to often and win more races would they, it's not the done thing.
  9. Wow thanks for that, and it was as i thought it would be.
  10. Can i just ask anyone that went to this match, if rohan or morten went way out into the dirt? Looking at morten score especially, it's not great, he was also in a couple of 3 rider races. Maybe the inside was the place to be?
  11. We never seem to get the second leg of anything, why is that?
  12. We need more racers than that, although there will be worse teams mentioned. Personally I would start a team with king Worrall Wells heeps and manzares and work from there. Or king Worrall ostergaard heeps manzares
  13. It looked like we may just get something at one point, then it all went Pete Tong. We certainly need to add at least one more proper racer to next seasons team or we will always get beaten at tracks like that. Well done though lads, I'm sure you did you're best.
  14. So if they don't get a point? Does that mean they haven't prepared properly or given 100 percent? Of course it doesn't. It just means they were not good enough, out raced or unlucky.
  15. What do you class as giving you're all? Morten may give his all white lining it, but that's the wrong line.
  16. I'm gonna start being positive and say we will get the point we need, I can see morten and rohans back wheels kissing the air fence right now as the Somerset riders crawl round they curb.
  17. Maybe that's why it broke then, he should try selettra ignition, far better for small engines, let hope he uses that Friday. After all I've said about us not doing very well this coming Friday, I'm actually going to change my mind and say we will get at least a point. Once every now and then an Ipswich team will win a meeting they are never expected to, for example, at Workington a couple of season ago. This may just may be another one of those meetings, we are due one. Is a point enough for us?
  18. It doesn't matter who is at reserve, we don't have a chance in hell of a point, not with how our current crop of riders race. The only way I could possibly see us getting something, is if the weather has been awful and the track is unraceable, then our superior gating may help us.
  19. Oh I thought it was max dilger, as he mentioned Ipswich in a press release when he signed for the panthers
  20. I guess it all depends on what different people see as a good meeting. I was seeing it from an Ipswich fans point of view, but if I was a neutral, then yes I guess it was a good meeting with a good amount of passing and gutsy riding.
  21. With our lack of top line assets, surely the premier is the place to be, and I think the racing is closer. It's also nice to be in contention for various silverware, which we won't be in the elite.
