  1. I've seen that, it's were BSI took a winner takes all extreme sport and made second and third better. Hahaha
  2. You aren't serious about this race. It's over at the first turn Dudek blocks Doyle's run to the turn and Zmarzlik retires from the race. Woffinden left with the whole track rides wide, Dudek sees Woffinden as they enter the third corner. He readjusts his line twice on turn 4 to allow Woffinden room on the outside, still unaware of Zmarzliks retirement he tucks in to cover the inside line for his team mate. Crossing the line the second time Dudek sees Zmarzlik on the infield, notice how his body language on the bike changes. It goes from body forward aggressive style to a more relaxed sat back arms straight position, from then on in the race, the throttle is eased off earlier and earlier on the straights keeping just enough speed to keep Doyle behind. What you want to see is your choice, that race shows everything that is wrong with the GP system
  3. The league ran ok with 7 teams once before, I believe it was in 2016. Each club had a "week off " during the season.
  4. Remember him from the championship side of 67 and the grasstracks. RIP Pete
  5. Poole to win 2019, if it happens, who's the bookies favourite to go bankrupt first
  6. He needs to calm down a little, and learn to settle for second places, but I agree, he looks the pick of the current crop.
  7. They might win some more if they occupy so many places.
  8. The "sport " started as a circus con like the old boxing booths nothing has changed much over the years
  9. The late Nigel Sparshott's multi coloured triangle ones always stick in my memory
  10. The way things are with the Poles being so strong as a nation, it is best, as you say, to have the wildcards. There is the possibility of six Polish riders in the GPs using SEC and U21 champions
  11. I always thought that after the team Exide, with their back to back GP champions, that the FIM stopped multiple rider sponsors. Was it Rickardsson and Ulameck that were stopped ?
  12. All the years I was a mechanic, we worked on a minimum 10pts with a win. Only ever needed 9 to win, oops!!!
  13. Sounds like he was impressed, good news if British Speedway can gain some Polish fans midweek. They will need tense buttocks with the back staight bogs if they visit Swindon
  14. I never realised the system was that flawed, that was an education
  15. I apologise for that I was always lead to believe it wasn't possible.
  16. It's not won in a night so it doesn't matter how many can win "on the night." Three of your 6 named ride for the same team so that cuts your list down to 4. Grachen try, speedway templates - Wikipedia, I will wait for your answer.
  17. You need to sit down and work that out yourself, you needed to win a race under the old system. Come back I tell me I was right when you try it
  18. The GPs have got stale, repetitive, not helped by the fact you don't need to win to be champion. It encourages bland boring riders, so Woffinden is top bore
  19. For stating facts, they wouldn't do that would they hahaha
  20. 44 pages and still no reason to class Woffinden as the best ever. To come on here and be critical about past riders achievements doesn't prove that he is the best. He rides for the team that controls 25% of the GP line up, why shouldn't he win. I still find him boring and nothing in the last 44 pages would encourage me to cross the road to watch him
  21. But paying fans still keep going, as long as they do nothing will change. The AGM with throw up the usual minor changes, some rules will be amended to stop certain promoters, others will be dropped to help the old boys club. Then on to March, as long as people pay, they got it right again.
  22. To have the mental strength to overcome that first ride and win shows why he is a truly great rider. In the one off there was no meeting in two weeks time.
