Luke was the quickest scorpion all night clocking 2 fastest times .

No need for speculation if Scunthorpe want Luke back next season he will be there agree though that at some point he will have to go elsewhere

lots of assumptions here and none are right

I can confirm that we don't use new tyres for national league. There is no point there are plenty of decent used ones available. Recently had two paid maximums on tyres that had done two heats on each edge before starting the meetings. Personally don't see the benefit from a cost point of view to the rider a heat leader on £15 a point has his first 4.5 points wiped out buying it it's ok if someone is providing them but still think it makes much difference to the lads based on the tracks they are given kings lyNn has been the exception so far this year as it's been fantastically prepared

Must of changed a lot in the last few years

from an insiders view i can say none of the young riders or there families expect anything to instantly appear on a plate. most like us have done 1000s of miles from when the boys were young to get them to meeting whether that be mdl njl British youth or amateur meetings. Personally i have my own thoughts on why the boys don't progress as quickly as European riders or aussies and its nothing to do with commitment or expectation

Well that's definitely an untruth about Luke . Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story

Luke's task this year is to up his average away from home and as long as he ends the year a better rider than he started we are happy. Boy rode well today whilst still feeling the affects of Wednesdays crash. Sorry he's not getting 15 every meeting to keep the keyboard hero's happy but never mind it's only speedway

No even if as alleged Batch wasn't trying 13 others were and for me that's where the focus should be. I don't need anyone to speak for me especially someone as negative as you are. Was a decent nights racing with some good heats and for me the score doses not reflect the meeting. Always thought Scunthorpe would be the winners as we are strong at home

Bit sad the discussion has turned into slating one rider rather than praising the others who gave it a go big home win 2 maximum's and some decent racing . But the focus is on the negative

Was done at the request of those stood near you so they couldn't hear your constant whining.

Yep but that's not the question I answered

So a rider has a sponsorship with a certain manufacturer and wins it using a different manufacturer's wheel not good for him . What if some riders use conventional tubes and others don't . What if the rider likes his wheel balanced and another doesn't

That's not the right set of averages

Think it's a fairly decent price for level some good riders on show .
