How can anyone be unsure of airfences?

Why cant they co back to the old way of the bottom 7 against 9 qualifiers in a GP Challenge on a FAIR and (as much as possible) neutral track, with the top 7 qualifying for the next years GP? Surely that's a better way of assembling the field then 3 qualifiers and 4 wild cards.

I agree on point 1. Point 2 pretty anal. Does it really wind you up to the point you need to talk about it on here? Point 3 totally wrong. Because you don't want 12 rounds doesn't mean everyone or even most dont want 12 rounds.

Ha, cheers Dave. I saw the semi final pretty spectacular.

On a lighter note, having only seen a few highlights, was it a good GP on the whole? I love the Krsko track, I'm assuming it created some good racing on Saturday?

Thank you RaR Hope it's on YouTube after the fact And it's not 3 Poles that quailfy!

Any update on if it's being streamed? What about Lambo Phil?!! Also Phil, Was Vaculik offered a Wild Card to the Challenge?

Still a bit harsh bud..

No offense Joe but that's a separate issue. Tai did something a bit out of character and wasn't his greatest moment but everyone is allowed a slip up. In every other way he's acted exemplary so let's forgive him on this one and just appreciate watching an absolute genius at work which he really is at the moment. And by the way what a GP that was. I was fearful after the first 2 rounds but since then been a cracking series.

I would say that's not just the airfences, it's the body armor, and belief in modern medicine too - but yes the airfences are a big deal. To suggest anything other then having the airfences is ludicrous though. For me the issues are, making sure the rider dont slide under the Airfence and hit a solid wall behind and how do we make the fences on the straights more forgiving?

Todd Whiltshire!!!

Thank you.

Happy to see this place back on the SGP circuit, really enjoyed my visit there.

Does that mean the SGP Challenge will be able to view live?!!

I forgot JG was one so I'll hold my hands up to that. But Royno instead of Lambert.. I won't even comment..

2 riders that were never going to improve the line up? Fair or stupid and robbing the paying public?

KL obv don't think he has a terrible attitude. The GB manager doesn't either. BSPA didnt even pick him as a wild card for the British Final after he rode his Nuts off and was second top scorer in the World Cup for us - aged 17. Robbed the fans a chance of seeing him do 5 rides at Cardiff. I don't blame the kid for not being fussed about British Speedway. Shocking people want to have a go at him on here.

Well individuals tried in court are given worse if they have previous..

Greg has been banned for what was essentially 1 meeting so it's not that big of a deal. I think that it is a ban that should suffice as he has been impeccably behaved for nearly 30 years in the sport. However (and I'm a fan of his) I think he's been a bit of a baby about it all. He should be happy that he's had his pat on the back form lots of the Speedway fraternity, let Nicki know enough was enough, say his apologies for acting in heat of the moment and move on in my opinion. No need to make any more comment. As was mentioned earlier, Tai isn't saying anything just getting his head down concentrating on himself and it's working wonders. I would say though, to me it seems this season people are definitely giving it back to Nikki more then he's used to. Or am I just imagining it?

Ah you see SCB, I agree with you and don't think think because there is a gate bias it means it can't be a good meeting. I think it's a shame and a bit unfair on those that draw the worse gate twice but there can still be great racing. I was just pointing out it's not just down it being a temp track that there are massively favored gate positions.

Point is people complain that it only happens on temp tracks (presumably just another dig at BSI)

BWitcher I agree he's got to man up - but that doesn't stop the fact he's possibly the best rider in the world and he should be riding in the world championship

That guy is so good BSI really have to pull out all the stops to get him back into the SGP. There's a serious void left by him not being there. On a side note, all those that complain about certain gates being favored at Cardiff/Horsens, need to be watching this SEC at Kumla!

I 100% agree with you on that one

cardiff's social scene it literally outside of the stadium, hence all the speedway fans are together, that wouldn't be the case at Wembley there is nothing around the stadium the hotels might not increase but i wouldn't want to stay in wembley its not a nice area and if you're staying in the center of london hotels are not cheap the flights i'll give you but most budget airlines go into stanstead or lute, miles from Wembley
