Hopefully it is up the air with Lawson and we end up getting him… if the limit stays at 40 I’d be over the moon with Lawson, Iversen, Klindt, B Cook, Kvech, Harris, Boughen

I think every Lynn fan I know would be well pleased with that team

i think it would have every chance IF we can keep a settled team for the whole season or at least the vast majority of it as its absolutely rock solid

the mooted side would be very powerful at home competitive away and always have a very strong reserve BUT needs to avoid the unavailability issues which has dogged the club over the last few seasons 

Kings Lynn are moving home race nights to Mondays rather than Thursdays (thank god!), so that will help us a lot, won’t lose riders to Poland if we have any that ride there

would he fit?

cant see him leaving ox but you never know 

Magic just fits:

Janowski 7.02 (or Cook 6.99)
Iversen 6.83
Klindt 6.59
Kvech 6.58
Lawson 6.91
Harris 6.06
Boughen

39.99

Like @Bald Blokehas mentioned before, having Magic in the side would be my preferred option as well. 

He would give us more top end strength for heats 13 & 15 and clearly likes the Lynn track. Got 16 from 6 rides and 14+2 from 7 rides on his two visits last season.

He wouldn’t come cheap though and I’d guess Oxford would be favourites for his signature.

Ben Cook would also be a decent option. Side would be 39.96 with his inclusion instead of Janowski. But his average comes from riding in the middle order, not at 1 or 5. He’d start as our No 1 which is a step up. But I do wonder if Ben might end up at Birmingham with his brother.

But with either in the team (and Lawson), it should be a match for anyone at home, especially considering we saw off Sheffield, Belle Vue (albeit without Kurtz) and Leicester reasonably comfortably with a much weaker side than that.

But if we don’t get Lawson and either one of Magic or Cook, that could make things tricky.

That’s a top 4 team hands down, whether it’s Magic or Ben at 1 in my opinion

This has to be the desired 1-7 in my opinion if we aren’t having a big hitter

The one problem with using Monday is that it will mean less time to work on the track after Stock Car meetings over the weekend. If too many teams go Monday as their regular day then there could be problems with fitting in fixtures.

Well Buster is obviously happy with it… certain teams can’t have Monday as their main race night though, Sheffield being one, theirs has to be Thursday

If that team above get on track with Magic, A GP winner and will be back at full speed in England next year then very impressive line up.

I wouldn’t think Ipswich would move off of Thursdays much either, Thursday has long been their regular race night and crowds are noticeably less on a Monday - albeit that’s probably due to them usually being televised
