Phannan Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 Why not have all 10 rounds here. Proper racetrack. Last to first, first to last . Every result possible in every race . Noel and Liam are from around the corner. Maybe they could renovate the stadium and put a roof over it . Proceeds from their comeback tour 👍 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left! Left!", as he hits the corner... Like on "It's a Knockout"... Probably won't allow Stuart Hall to commentate though...

Gavan Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 I think Zmarzlik will walk away with this series now Kurtz has done well so far but can he keep the consistency…. Fortunate maybe to have two Grand Prix on his home track and get big points 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to all the riders who made it two good evenings of speedway. To be fair, I know the melody to it, I've heard it that often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do it so you cannot screenshot a ticket and jib in... The reason the Champ League final and other major events, take so long to get in... That, and the ticketless scousers trying to get in for nothing by using screenshots... Not their fault though, never is... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I meant so many sports people don’t bother singing to their own national anthem and just seem to mime some incomprehensible rubbish. That aside the suggestion that has been made by others is that when interviewed he is talking rubbish, he probably thinks in Polish and tries to translate to English. I wonder how many go to Poland and when speaking in the local language think in Polish. Not a chance they think in English and most of what they are saying is then lost in translation when they speak. Some should try it some time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And PC with Weslake.... Several times have watched these riders come out on borrowed machinery... The bike had never had gone so fast.... BZ is a generational talent and all time great... Keith Huen does a brilliant podcast, it’s on YouTube somewhere, where he is talking about road racing way back but it was the same in speedway, where the greats like Sheene or Robert’s or whoever had far superior factory equipment to the rest of the the field and this was the same for mauger Olsen briggs or whoever where as today all the top riders are have access to the best equipment so it’s harder to be so dominant today as it was way back when, zmarzlik’s bikes are no faster than anyone in world speedway, he uses same frames, same carbs, same clutches, often even same tuners as everyone else, he is simply a better rider that has no advantage at all where as you didnt have that situation with Olsen or mauger and particularly briggs who anyone will tell you about his Jawa deals, Olsen even brought the rights to weslake in 1983 which backfired because it as the year the first GM came out,way back riders were cheating with fuel additives etc which was wide spread but today it’s too strict and nobody can get away with it, I’m sure they try, like madsen when he suddenly burst on to the GP scene and people were asking questions and then when they started doing more checks he not been the same since, was he cheating ? Well he got form, remember silencer gate ? Oversize engines are pretty much a thing of the past at top level and they eliminated the fuel cheating by riders filling up from one tank before race but not in uk where it’s open to cheating, upshot of this post is zmarzlik is the greatest rider this sport has ever had and likely to have, he is exciting, calculated, brave, fast, he is the complete rider of which we have had flashes of in others but never to this degree, but unlike in other sports he is beaten regularly but until you do it everytime he will always be at the top and eventually the statistics will back this up and it’s not cause he has the best equipment because he doesn’t Edited June 14 by THE DEAN MACHINE 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even Tony "Effing" Hadley... Much rather a chance to visit the same city year in, year out to sit in the same bar, year in, year out, and watch some crap Speedway whilst shelling out a kings ransom for somewhere to kip... Manchester needs to get its "sh*t" together and start trebling the hotel prices on GP weekends... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
