No idea is the a stock car community up there maybe a collaboration between both.

Is it not possible that northside can be developed like scunny. Track would need to be bigger but have it open 24/7 speedway stock cars to generate the revenue

Exactly my point sir the juniors all take immense pride in riding for their clubs and speaking for our pilot he cares about the team and don’t want to let anyone down

It’s not a given you have to have two but bikes however with the large amount of traveling involved it is a nightmare to get somewhere and the bike don’t run properly . We always warm both bikes up before we go anywhere to make sure ther ok and have had instances of one playing up and not being right once we get to the track. Try telling an 8 to 12 year old he can’t ride after 4 hours in the van and another 4 to get back. The cost wouldn’t be reduced massively with one bike as in our case our set up has been over a four year period and the figure I quote is running cost for the year and dosent allow for any initial purchase cost of the bikes over the time. Would say our cost is mid range for a top level junior some will spend more some less but not by huge amounts. thanks for the good wishes it’s all up to him he has the backing and talent but only time will tell if he has the desire and ambition. Regardless of what happens we have made some brilliant memories

Totally agree on the unsustainablity at the level, however as the parent of a junior rider it cost us circa £10k to run last year for the 125cc class. We don’t run brand new frames both bikes are 6 years old always use part worn tyres tyres picked up,at tracks(except for international meetings) and always look for most cost effective solutions tho replacing parts.This year is probably going to cost more due to the plans in place for progress . We have some very good sponsors who help massively and without them it would be almost impossible to compete at the level we do i don’t have any answers to reduce the cost or on how it could be cheaper

Without reading all this thread was just wondering if they had considered going national League for a couple of seasons . The lower costs may mean that speedway is sustainable

Anyone got a preference on the track for the coming season slick like last season or back to the deep dirt heavy gripy track of years gone by or as Steve worrall described it Robs wall of death

Nike at 2 is his preferred position always scores better there

Unfortunately Danny was off the pace for the majority of last season let’s hope it’s a better year for him

No offence taken if you’re u look at my comments on Danny on the scunny threads I don’t criticise him he was just never in the races after the tapes went up whether that was the injury playing on his mind lack of effort or lack of talent we will never know . With reserve position being slightly weaker this year he could benefit and get his form back

Lunna will be fantastic to watch which will be tempered by watching Phillips if he replicates hisform at scunny

I’d give £100 if that was the case

Got a special talent in Jordan Palin

Like the look of the team did they also announce the academy squad

Signed this morning remember where you heard it first

Nike lunna would be a good choice

Yep Auty over worrall at scunny every time

I don’t hate you because of who you support or sign I despise your irrelevant posting it’s crap

Ruining this thread as well buffoon

Ryan Douglas I reckon

Let’s see what the other teams do remember it’s a drastically low points limit personally I think we will be ok and everyone takes a spanking at some point

Maybe because steve Didn't want to ride for us

Probably because telegraph and speedway star both come out on a Thursday and it gives more column inches all publicly is good publicity

wouldn't it be a nicer place if he did
