SPEEDY69

He doesn't merit it this year.

I said it months ago, BV will walk the title, no-one can match them at the NSS, too much home track advantage.

I don't think he'd score any more if he was at reserve.

Delaying the start so the track dries out more 😁

Yes, in my view. It's only some riders who can't handle it/turn the bike - "up your skills mate, this is speedway!" I've seen nothing wrong with the track at all and it's an easy one to blame. If the fastest/best rider makes the start then there shouldn't be any passing. Years gone by lots of overtaking was due to rider errors/fear/less skill, now it's predominently only when the fast guy misses the start.

They can use a guest replacement if they choose to as well can't they?

Oh dear, slickfest here we come😁

Only this season though.

He will be if still using Joe's engine!

Kemp was the difference - his previous years' scores at Foxhall have never been that good! (overall foxhall average about 3.8) I think the Thompson engine helped him get off the start as Joe always makes good starts.

Phew, it's not Dudek then, thanks goodness for that.

It was a close affair last night and good to see some Leicester fans making some noise. Shame Ipswich let points slip with King and Lawson falling but that's how it goes sometimes. Kemp was awesome for Leicester, 15 from a 5 point reserve has won them the cup I think. Brennan was woeful yet again, even when he makes good starts he gets beat up around the first couple of bends and given the side Ipswich have, if your 'number one' only gets 4/5 points meeting it's never going to end in success. I hope he can turn it around but we're now coming into August. Moaners on here make me laugh, ooh the track this or that, nothing wrong as far as I can see - last night was a little slicker but that's how speedway has always been in the UK and is what makes it more interesting for me, rather than fastest engine wins on a billiard table.

He was not using the right lines though, always trying to turn too hard to cut underneath - a Harris style outside pass would've worked a dream. Passing to me is not the be all and end all - if that's what it's all about then just make the best riders at that particular track start from a handicap. I agree with your earlier post that it's about the race, which isn't just overtaking and some riders can handle inconsistent or grippy/slick tracks better than others, that's what makes it unpredictable.

Ha! Harris is two places above Paco though in the pecking order. If Lambert, Woryna, Lebedevs and Jepsen Jensen qualify from this years' GP then it's Tungate, Nilsson, Jakobsen and Harris who get in, unless I've got that wrong?

One man's poor is another man's fabulous.

I'll stick to my prediction that Harris will be in the 2027 GP series 🤣

£25 to see the same bunch in the championship and premiership, your point is?

To answer the topic title, yes.

Think they're missing out there. Richard Coleman said the stats for the Ipswich steam show it's people well outside Ipswich who subscribe, plus those not fit enough to attend any more.

Do sheffield have a live stream? Can't find anything but that doesn't mean there isn't one!

His own airbags 😁

Yes, the same as Scott of course. Will be a test for both of them

Do spedeworth still own/lease Mildenhall because when i paid with my phone at Foxhall the payment details said it was to 'Mildenhall stadium'?

Looks a good line up for this meeting, some evenly matched pairs there.

I agree about the new forum, looked horrible and didn't like the way the pages were presented so am glad this site is back up and running.
