Albeit the beer probably helps. The track looks promising now too, think we’ll see some great racing later hopefully. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did that last happen. Thanks ITV 4 and hopefully that can see the potential and perhaps look at the wider European scene. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neila Posted 21 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Thanks to ITV4 for putting the speedway on, racing seems to be getting better and closer, wish I could say the commentators are getting better. The crowd looks better than I was expecting, but even with a full house the camera angles won't show much of the crowd as no one is allowed on either bends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And won't get filled anyway.  Basically, no need for them... At the NSS, standing just before bend 3 is the spot... Amazing speed, amazing cutting across each other at those amazing speeds... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elf and safety very few if any flying stones on the straights, Theirs no access to bends 1+2 bends 3+4 is a car park, and can't see the track very well, if you were allowed to stand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellevueace Posted 21 hours ago Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Considering the line up i was Hoping Tom Brennan would have a good meeting and bang in some good points to regain some confidence having been forced to ride at No1 for so long, so far not going well which i must say has surprised me. Hopefully he can come to the party in the later heats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueIn2Red Posted 21 hours ago Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Felt so bad for Rory and Emma during that transition - you could tell they were both being screamed at in their ear pieces. Excruciating to watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excruciating to watch! Yes, not quite sure who's running the show but it's not the first sudden duff with cutting away too soon or lingering too long.

Kemp is such a frustrating rider. He's been a match winner for Leicester a few times and made some great passes, but if it doesn't go well he suddenly looks like a novice.

Hawk127 Posted 21 hours ago Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Cooper Rushen comes across as a great competitor and good luck to the lad. We need more like him and if the UK can generate this sort of rider, the future does look bright. Great to see lads like this having the confidence to mix it with some of the best in KK speedway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
