He only needs one more meeting, although I can't remember if KO Cup counts. 2 hours ago, David said: In your opinion, which will probably be shared by others, but the technology dragging the sport kicking and screaming into the 21st century says otherwise. 21st Century would be a high speed camera that gives visual evidence that no one can reasonably dispute. The transponders are only as good as the placement on the bike and even then rely on the wheels being in line, which is hilarious given how you ride a speedway bike. We have more reliable and transparent technology at club level athletics meets, which have even less money in them than speedway! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about 50cm behind the start line so works when the front tyre just crosses the line 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
