Aye, sorry Subedei - forgot to mention that.

The draw for Cardiff has been made. Info below taken from www.speedwayworld.tv 1..L Adams..(AUS) 2..L Dryml..(CZR) 3..S Nicholls..(GBR) 4..N-K Iversen..(DEN) 5..C Harris..(GBR) 6..T Gollob..(POL) 7..F Lindgren..(SWE) 8..R Holta..(POL) 9..[W]..E Kennett..(GBR) 10..N Pedersen..(DEN) 11..K Kasprzak..(POL) 12..J Crump..(AUS) 13..G Hancock..(USA) 14..H Andersen..(DEN) 15..A Jonsson..(SWE) 16..B Pedersen..(DEN) 17..[R]..T Woffinden..(GBR) 18..[R]..S Stead..(GBR)

Wasn't TNT offering a lift from the Midlands area?

Team changes for me: Nicki Pedersen - $60,000 Tomasz Gollob - $45,000 Andreas Jonsson - $40,000 Fredrik Lindgren - $30,000 Niels Kristian Iversen - $25,000

And quite a convincing lead, too. 11 points clear at the top.

Let's just hope that Chris Harris is saving his best performance for Cardiff, eh?

Apart from his first ride, I actually thought Nicholls rode quite well tonight. With a better first ride and without a couple of mistakes he made, a semi-final place was certainly on the cards. However Chris Harris was just awful. It looked so promising when he came 2nd in his first ride, too.

Especially when I could;ve chosen the Wild Card for $5000 less, which has so far accrued 40 points!

Adams - 8 x 2 = 16 Andersen - 11 Nicholls - 7 Jonsson - 9 Kasprzak - 3 Total: 46 - same as last round Will certainly be chasing Kasprzak with the axe Leaves me on 211.

Ah well. Life's a bitch. I'm sure it's not going to harm anyone, is it?

Silly move.

Good. Last year we just had 2 adult tickets and didn't worry about it. Ah well, that'll save me £17

Do they check your age? I'm taking my old man this year, who's 55. Do you reckon I could get him an over 60s ticket?

Leigh Adams will be my captain for the Danish GP.

Ok. No Woffinden then.

I wouldn't go with Woffinden in the main 5. He'd line up at reserve if it was up to me. I'd go for Nicholls, Harris, Kennett, Richardson & Stead.

Errr, that makes 75 TNT.

He came close once Subedei, finishing 3rd.

Adams - 9 x 2 = 18 Andersen - 8 Nicholls - 7 Jonsson - 8 Kasprzak - 5 Total: 46 Leaves me on 165.

Ah, ok. Good call to have Holder as the wildcard then - he'd certainly do much better than what the likes of David Howe, Simon Stead and Lewis Bridger would.

Hasn't the wildcard for Cardiff got to be British?

King's got a better chance than Bridger. Bridger would get a worse reputation than what he's already got if he went to the GPs, he's so arratic.

There's still time. Only 3 GP's down, plenty more to come.

It's not been a rubbish meeting, it's certialny been eventful, but it's just a shame about the track and all the crashes.

There's still the Semis and the Final to come as yet.
