  1. By my reckoning though Lions riders are going to be down £400 between them tonight
  2. Not to mention a number of riders doing practice starts on the parade without their helmets on!
  3. Heat 6, Klindt left the track after the false start... not excluded, why have these rules of you're not going to enforce them?
  4. Somebody on these forums needs to find a new source
  5. You didn't see the BU21C from Glasgow then? Leicester has been far too slick this season. It's good for about 3 or 4 races but they just don't keep on top of it with watering and before you know it, it's a slick dust bowl
  6. Yeah, no, for sure... I was halfway through typing it when I remembered Ace was a Tiger... meeting deserved a better crowd really
  7. just speaking as an observer, the 250's of today seem more akin to the 500's of yesteryear where they seem to reach their max speed before the end of the straight, where as the 500's look as though they'll just keep pulling and pulling. looking at the race times between SGP and SGP3 at the weekend there was only 3 or 4 seconds difference between the 2, so I'd suggest that having double the cc for an extra 2 or 3 seconds seems a bit overkill
  8. Yeah, no, for sure, so there's rain threatening, you've had 20 excellent heats of Speedway all building up to a big semi and final and then you stop for 15 minutes, bring a load of kids out to play on the centre green... that's exactly why the sport will never be anything again in this country. It should all have been about theatre but no somebody has got to put a stamp on a tyre, that if it isn't used could easily be used at the next meeting, I don't really care how it works at the moment, it needs to work better, get with it my friend, the writing is on the wall for the sport in this country, born out by the attendance today.
  9. Yeah, no, for sure, I've not no... they should have 4 tyres and wheels ready to use then surely, you've clearly never stood on the terraces waiting for the final 2 races
  10. Yeah, no, for sure... I'd expect that as soon as they knew they were through to the semi or final to start fitting their tyre, why does it take so very long to fit a tyre?
  11. What a final! Yeah, no, for sure! I thought Dan T had that in the bag, he just rode too conservative though, still a rostrum ain't bad and a good 2 fingers up to everybody that's dropped him this year!
  12. Yeah, no, for sure... there's been some great Speedway racing from heat 1 through to heat 20 today for sure... Why though in these events when the riders are allowed a new tyre does it take an eternity to fit them? All momentum is lost from the meeting for the sake of 2 races, just when the tension should be building... it's all lost. Why can't they have these tyres ready to use?
  13. Yeah, no, for sure, Gilkes is impressive, he's just on BSN now saying he's never ridden Glasgow before for sure
  14. Some interesting names among the donors I notice... haven't seen any rider names on there though, could be anonymous I suppose
  15. Buster is the owner of Peterborough isn't he... just not the promoter
  16. Yeah, no, for sure... are there no Glasgow riders innit? I thought Connor Bailey was a Glasgow favourite, Pijper... forecast wasn't great for sure
  17. Sadly we'll never know but how many World titles would Darcy Ward have had by now. Bartek has certainly been fortunate in the era he has ridden
