  1. http://redcarbears.co/2017/02/26/new-track-curator-appointed/
  2. The unsealed ones are actually dearer. Freddie Lindgren manages with them on big tracks and they claim that the sealed ones are exactly the same as his.
  3. It was tried two years ago by Tony Mole and failed. There wont be any Speedway at either of those venues and by the way, they were my local tracks as well.

  5. I always thought there should be 'rider control' for overseas riders, they apply to come here and are offered a place at a club that needs them, this after all the British riders have been signed up. If the club can't meet the overseas riders terms or it isn't the club he hoped for, then tough, out he goes, we don't owe them a living.
  6. He's done that before, I'm surprised anyone gives him a go.
  7. I think that's just nitpicking, the bigger picture should please everyone, whether they bought tickets or not.
  8. That was the figure mentioned when he asked Wolverhampton to circulate his availability.
  9. That'd be good, he's in the Simon Lambert testimonial as well.
  10. You still have much to offer David, good luck this season and I hope you enjoy it.
  11. An ad for it.... http://www.mcnfestival.com/ Newcastle are there on the Saturday.
  12. I think the best chance of it happening will be when several lame duck clubs have finally popped their clogs and the top two leagues become one. I think the new situation with rider averages is already allowing for that. Making a long term career out of being a NL rider shouldn't be an option, apart from one rider/coach per team.
  13. I agree with that and my understanding of things was that originally a rider/coach was acceptable. Looking at some line-ups now, it's difficult to see which riders are meant to be the recipients of the coaching.
  14. There aren't enough riders to stop doubling up and there probably never will be when so many National League opportunities have been filled by old crocks.
  15. They have guaranteed that this model will not be changed in the next 3-4 years.
  16. I doubt that they'll be "flying out the door" yet, if you're set up to something else it's a big move to change, especially when certain tuners are trying to preserve their pocket lining activities by doing their best to dissuade any potential buyers. I think once a few more start appearing sales will pick up.
  17. Then again, it might not and end up as a Sunday afternoon amateur sport. There are some new promoters coming into the sport and a new chairman who seems to be putting a lot of effort in.
  18. Jim at the Burger stand, Geoff on the track :-)
  19. I wasn't talking specifically about KK when I mentioned GPs (the post I answered said that the GP riders were the best 15 in the world), irrespective of individuals records I would rather have Cook in my team and those teams he's ridden for seem to have been happy enough with his efforts.
