Lambert now is also on BAR and he was mint. There's no excuses for Harris's performance, he's experienced enough

Steve, on current form that would be a crazy decision. What's your reason for putting Lambert at reserve for GB?

Does anyone find £65-£70 justifiable for just the final only in the Grandstand? Seems a pretty nuts figure if you ask me

Just been on the website to look for Grandstand tickets for the SWC just for the Saturday as due to illness I have to sit. Can go do one @£65-£70

Never said anything about carting bikes all over Europe

You can but you also have to think about the viability for the manufacturer of the engines & the riders. I don't think you could go down the route of just 1, they all have to be available. Jawa GM Gerhard Then there would be the cost of scrutineering this. That's not a 5 minute job You'll also have the issue where a 'factory rider' is on the GM tuned by PJR everywhere else in the World but knows the 'Sealed factory GM' is outdone by the 'Sealed Jawa' just for the UK. This he can't change to because he'll lose the GM contract so quits British racing. Basically, all I'm saying is, for sealed engine racing to work it has to be across the board. It cannot happen in just 1 country.

SCB, just viewed the figures for 2016. Any chance you could separate track figures from the old Belle Vue to the new National Stadium? Thanks

That's not really anything to go by either. Been to Belle Vue 3 times already this season and hasn't scored above 6 and abysmal in the British Final against rider's that should be nowhere near him. Chris Harris, TeamGB, YOU'RE FIRED......

Costs would be a huge problem here as every bike and engine would need to be identical. Rather than 2 of the rider's taking the cost of PJR tuned engines all 14 race day club machines would have to take the hit. Then the day to day running repairs as riders become a little more careless with them. Certainly though, I love it to happen. It is the way forward to become more professional looking but right now I don't think it's workable.

Are you sure?

Yes as it's still classed as beating an opposition rider

Slightly different. This is a big thing for Danny King to race at Cardiff. No way will he want to risk himself getting mixed up in the PL pairs the day before. Would be madness on his part

Oxford at NL level for Matt might be the route to go. Like Cradley I think they'd get decent crowds for that level Speedway and run on the cheap. Then there's also a back up plan for Matt if the property development threat for Poole comes to fruition & Oxford returns to the top league.

King will be missing from this surely?

About 4 weeks ago while on the toilet I noticed what looked like warts on my ballbag. After a visit to the doctor's they'd asked about any close sexual contact and provided some antibiotic cream Once home and a thought I realised what happened, so I went back to the doctors. Again after a discussion it was confirmed I had 'British Speedway Forum Transmitted Decease'. It had been contracted from spending to much time reading people talking b0!!0x Thankfully now in full recovery and have these viral pests blocked

Can only replace an injured / ill rider at the discretion of the event doctor in the SWC. Lambert would be wasted as an U21 reserve, already to good for that position Woffinden King Cook Lambert has to be the 4

:rofl:

That's why Cook is so quick now as he's running the PJR engines. The only Brit outside of Woffinden to do so I believe which surprises me. Believe Lambert is now on BAR's and that to shows on recent performances. PJR's though are way ahead of the game.

The reserve has to be under-21

Question of the day. How wet did those people on turn 1-2 terracing get as they ain't able to move to a dry place. Did any leave before the end? Were they getting filled in or is the viewing area far enough back?

Think the side is nailed on already 1. Woffinden 2. King 3. Cook 4. Lambert 5. Ellis (u21) Think any other team and Rosco as manager must be questioned

You're desperately trying to hang on to Harris in teamGB. Harris had been there on 3 occasions now and has been dire. 6 for Swindon 5 for Coventry 5 British Final That is abysmal and should rightly be left out

Absolutely brilliant from King, congratulations. Cook tried to keep safe rather than sticking it in the dirt

Yep, he can't handle pressure

Do you have an issue with Lambert? Would have anything to do with last season would it? No way would any sensible person pick Harris over Lambert
