Ha ha ha, if you honestly believe Fast Freddie's GTR is a bog standard out of the box engine, then you are totally deluded. If it is, then ask if you can buy it for £3,950+vat, shouldn't be a problem, as he could just bolt another one in, straight out of the box.
-
Even better, give the money to Marcel, he gets the full RRP, and Fast Freddie gets a new one out of the box ready for the next GP.
-
If they're all standard, I'm sure he'll take 5.5k for the one he's riding, then just go and buy a brand new one from Marcel, yeah right.

Tomasz Gollob Seriously Injured In Mx Accident
Lord Skid replied to Ghostwalker's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
They were happy to cash in when he visited their tracks with the Witches, biggest bums on seats Rider in decades, more skill than any other Rider, ever. -
Fast Freddie is a development works rider, you won't be getting the same engine as him, no matter how they try to put a spin on it.
-
Don't you get given Fast Freddie's phone number, so you can get set ups from the horses mouth.
-
Trouble is the bond rarely covers the debts, and Riders are near the bottom of the pile, when it comes to getting monies owed.
-
It takes 4 months to get a Plumber or Electrician just to turn up in our area.
-
Your excessive engine wear was caused by a poor air filter letting in dirt, that will be the stock answer to void your Warranty.
-
Just another point, if you buy a GTR, then your Promoter will give you a worse deal than if you were on a GM, this is how it makes the Sport more viable for the Promoter. So does that mean that GTR Rider has got to ride for let's say 15-20% less than his opponents on GM's. As this is what helps save the Sport, and is the main marketing tool for the engine.

BSPA have obviously got to get them out there, who owns Lynn, of course, the bloke who's got a lot of them on his hands.
-
So you have 2 donkey GTR's in the UK, then you fly out to ride in Sweden, Denmark, Poland and jump on your GM's. And who is going to service all the GTR's in the UK?
-
But all engines won't be equal, the PJR tuned GTR will be the quickest, but this argument will go on forever, but basically it will not happen, would very questionable if GTR could meet the numbers required worldwide.
-
Didn't see one in the Polish pairs meeting on Eurosport. Everyone without a vested interest in the engine knew it was never going to do what was written on the tin, let's see the SS put a spin on this **** up, even Alistair Campbell would struggle with this one.
-
You couldn't make it up, thieving bas##### should be made to pay their members debts first, bet Marcel thinks he's won the lottery without having to buy a ticket.
-
Seems totally unfair that if there is anything underhand or a bit dubious, poor old Mick Horton's name is always not far away, he can't be associated with everything that goes belly up in Speedway
-
We'll soon be having a 4TT, Coventry, Reading, Oxford, Cradley very sad times when four of the greatest are no longer around.
-
Is that a similar £5 million revamp that was carried out at MK and Reading.
-
So, did having Sky involved in Speedway actually benefit anyone, apart from the London Bentley Dealers, I cannot actually think of anything positive to have come out of all the millions involved, we now have less supporters, less Clubs, less top Riders riding in the UK, there must be some positives apart from launching Kelvin's TV career.
-
If you can't get a mass gathering for an EL match, what makes you think people will turn up for a protest, unless they think the local TV might be there, and they night be on the tele.
-
The League keeps getting weaker, and he doesn't improve, must tell you something, he's certainly not going to miraculously improve.

The Goalposts Have Moved So...
Lord Skid replied to thebaron's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
As I said before Sargeant should contact the Border Agency, they have the power to revoke work visas, where a suitable British Rider has priority over Johnny Foreigner. -
As someone said Sandhu is in a different League,when it comes to business, bit like Donald Trump against Del Boy and Boysie.
