  1. So I can be clear, is the south side opposite the main stand/start.......... if so........there was covered terracing there in 2016........ which I understand was removed at the end of 2016, along with temporary toilets........... and now, if I am right, in 2017 the ManCity Council are reinstating a stand and toilets which are temporary until next year 2018. I just got to be wrong with my thinking, but councils do "funny" things at times.
  2. to be honest, I dont know how sponsorship deals are set up, I never got offered sponsorship when I was grass track racing - and if you saw me ride you would understand why But could be a promoter approaches local business, the business responds positively, and asks for suggestions of who to sponsor..... chance for a promoter to "push" someone name forward. As long as the sponsor perceives he is getting value for his money maybe they just go along with it. Of course some sponsors are speedway "savvy" and want to sponsor a certain name.
  3. Probably because promoters "push" potential sponsors in the direction the promoter wants. If a promoter has an investment of any sort in a particular rider then they will want to promote that rider. I suggest a sponsor, in the main, is not to bothered whether a rider is from Britain or another country as long as his product gets promoted well..
  4. Should have been in place last year, even not at the start of the season.
  5. Perhaps those figures show where international matches for Team GB should lie. Would be good a 4 way international between GB, Germany, Italy, Czech (or substitute any of the other teams). 4 teams, 5 man teams, 4 countries.
  6. I dont even know when Kevlars become the "norm". Was it rule change, or was it some fashion that did the change.?? Are they lighter, stronger, more protective then leathers?? I can remember the days of all black (mostly, the odd blue or red), and was happy to see coloured leathers come into "fashion" - great stuff.
  7. 2 spots, perhaps thats what the powers that be think of British speedway.
  8. Anything to do with kodi ????? Been on Sportnation website and it doesnt look straight forward.
  9. Maybe I missed this if its been posted already, but BV are giving free accesss to a practice night next Fri 24th March at 7:30, followed by Q&A session afterwards http://www.bellevueaces.co/newsitem.aspx?id=1971
  10. Not heard that before, SS. Since I bought the 2 cars me and the wife have, both second hand, my garage has used semi-synthetic. They seem to be going ok.
  11. Additives like Redex, for petrol or diesel, claim to clean the injector tips thus gaining an efficient flow of fuel leading to extra mpg. Also can reduce black smoke from diesel engines particularly if used on shorter runs.
  12. Spill the beans.... how much at Costco??
  13. I just ordered 4x500ml bottles for £22 delivered off ebay. Thats a ggod price.
  14. They can shout the loudest but it doesnt mean the UK cant protect their interests.
  15. Doesnt mean promoters cant react to it. Probably otheer countries did when Britin did it to them.
  16. I think the supermarkets were dropping the price of fuel by 3p/litre this last week. I get supermarket fuel but I always add Redex for Diesel in to the tank, so that may put something in that some say is not there with supermarket stuff. I know it helps to keep the injectors clean.
  17. Seriously, I dont think the BV track on the opening night was THAT bad. I reckon those riders at the PCMemorial have ridden worse tracks before AND since that night.
  18. Im looking forward to going to see the Colts this year. I never went to Rochdale when when the colts rode their, so I am not going to miss the development of the youngsters this time round.
  19. Hes a mate of TW isnt he- another showing a bad attitude to british speedway
  20. Shucks, I thought you had some video to link us to. Disappointed.
  21. Gregory could add something, as could Artem, IF they were always on a good day, which they are not. Zagar is brilliant when he is on a good day.
  22. With the youngsters Poland now have at top level, together with those waiting to break through, I would imagine Marek Cieslak will be drawing his pension before he has to resign. His hardest job is picking a team of 5.
  23. Plenty of time then for the promoters to discuss and decide before next season then, and best to do it well in time then clubs and riders know what the situation will be,
