They need to get the shale off the entrance into the corner, grading in the opposite direction is a no no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marksman Posted April 10 Author Report Share Posted April 10 Good showing from the Comets in the end, on other day we may have won but we will be very competitive on the road this season for sure. Hope Vinnie is okay, plenty of positives there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woke23 Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 Very good performance by our lads. Too many mistakes cost us. Some self inflicted, some inflicted by the piss poor track. That first bend was atrocious. The guy on the tractor looked like he didnt have a clue. UTC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortythirtyeight Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 A game of two halfs , to use an analogy…. First half is the reason the sport is dying, track issues due to incompetent track preparation and having to be told how to fix it by the previous track curator who left the role because of the owners ! Took an hour on a freezing evening to sort it without a-decent explanation to the crowd. We were viewing on the back straight, normally great viewing point, but dust was just too much after two races so had to move to the home straight instead. After the tractor racing fiasco the second half of the meeting was much better with the close score and Comets getting in the groove and could have won the meeting if not for Vinnies loop when on a 5-1. Cook back to his best, Jeppesen very good. Bears relied on Klindt and Allen saving the day with the rest inconsistent but did enough to win the meeting but probably not the bonus point. overhall the diehards would have enjoyed it but went home feeling the cold and needing a hot shower whilst any newbies wont be coming back anytime soon. Redcar need better more consistent track preparation. P.S. Parked on the public road this time, much safer for the car. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelShoe Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 First of all I hope Vinnie isn't too beat up after lifting off the 4th bend and ploughing into the fence ( No tattie puns please 😉). Following a first ride where he struggled with the track he was much more competetive. Shame after superbly getting into a 5-1 behind Cookie and looking comfortable he lifted and couldn't get it down in time. This was always going to be a tough task but we were left rueing points thrown away when in good race positions. Niklas looks a real racer and I look forward to see him develop as he settles in to British racing. Signs are that consistency will be pivotal to our chances of competing at the sharp end. Well done the Bears who all chipped in. The 10 last places undid the Comets but there were some promising signs. UTC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff100 Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 Good result both danes looked good,vinnie after a poor first ride improved,tate tried hard which saw him fall,young jamie a little off the pace,but for the falls we could have won.the downside the first bend rut should have been noticed since the last meeting almost an hours delay saw some fans leaving.

Neila Posted April 11 Report Share Posted April 11 Was not a bad meeting for the comets plenty of positives to take away, especially since it was the 1st time on track as a team, the young Dane is certainly a racer never gave up, deserved more than 2 points, were on 5-1 s twice, until Vinnie binned it in the fence after violently lifting off the 4th bend, hope Vinnie is ok and the bike isn't too badly bent, but did not look good. Then Tate went wide when on 5-1 with cookie, battled back for 3rd place. More good times to come UTC 😀🏁🔵⚪ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
