ONTWOMINUTES

If bwd is on a guarantee then rob grant needs to purchase him a one way ticket back to NZ and save the club some money ,

He can be , on a very good night he'd of scored 6

Wilson-dean never was and never will be any good , so over rated.

Rip Colin , it was a pleasure to have known you . A true speedway legend . My thoughts are with your family.

I'll ask them both on Saturday and see what they say.

It's ok , I didn't want to get into arguments about what amateur is but I'm just ignorant about it . I wonder if leon flint and Kyle bIckley to name two , would class themselves as amateurs. Sorry to ch958 for making stupid comments.

I know that , but alot of them are paid team members once the season starts.

Surely some of these riders can't be classed as amateur? Certainly not in ability anyway .

Thanks Steve

What day and time are redcar racing ?

Quite a few riders will not score enough to pay for their own tyre , that's totally mad . They then have fuel and general wear ontop of that . Good job these boys aren't professional ? Oh wait , some probably are . Time to get some good sponsors or the bank of mum and dad . After all this I just hope they all enjoy racing and stay safe.

And if I remember rightly it did shane no harm and made him into a much better rider - a lesson for the modern day teams , they could learn alot from this.

Google , fgm engine images and you'll see.

From pictures I've seen , fgm are using the gm bottom end ( from the barrel down ) and have engineered a completely new type of cylinder head .

Nice to see teams filling up the places with home grown talent - not, and then people wonder why british speedway way is in a mess . I feel sorry for the british riders who will end up without a team .

Thanks , that's about as much as I knew too .

Any of you fen tiger fans remember a rider called ian peel ? Just wondering what his background is. Thanks.

I watched it when it was on a few years ago and spoke to ronnie in the pits at Swindon about his heroics - he played it down for such a brave thing to do .

With respect to some riders , they only develop to a standard that's still scary at best when you watch them ride. Bring back the use of uprights and it will bring back the spectators ( along with an admission price that is appropriate).

Maybe they are introducing the use of uprights and veterans to make the numbers up - the likes of Wayne carter and Gary o'hare can still go at a fair whack .

British speedway needs to concrete on itself instead of being dictated to by other countries , It's never going to complete financially with poland etc . Like is being said it's a good opportunity to reset and make everything run at less cost , which would then enable lower admission prices . I'm sure clubs could attract bigger crowds and recoup finances steadily. Any rider out pricing themselves would like any business have to be sensible or be left without employment.

Some of the best racing I've seen in years was when coventry had meetings against cradley and Kent in the ndl.

I'll give you a clue , it was spelt ending in borough and should of been brough

My childhood teams track shop got a load of jackets made with the name spelt wrong

Just looking at these and they sell ( if you can get one) for around £230 . Gone up since adonis was being helpful.
