Round 6 Under 15's British Championship

[Betty]

Dan only took two rides - crashed on last lap of his first ride while 2nd and on lap two of his second while a long way in front and then had to be withdrawn with a shoulder injury.

 

Fotunately he was back on song at Scunny yesterday in the competitive training session with four wins and a second in the races.

Can I ask WHY?

Certainly, IN MY OPINION

Sheffield is what I call a 3 B's track.You need no BRAINS, big BALLS and an endless BANK balance to go that fast week after week.

The motors and set ups used by riders at Sheffield are useless elsewhere and so you need one bike for that track.The motors will need more regular services and when one blows there at high revs it is likely to cost a lot to fix.

The chances of an injury ruling the rider out for a long period of time are higher than at other tracks due to the higher racing speeds.

The learning curve and progression of a young rider at sheffield will take longer due to the inability to experience how to turn a bike tightly and controll the wheel spin to jump out of slow speed corners.Blaster tracks can't give you this.

ETC ETC

 

Would this suit a 15 year old on £5.00 a point ?.

 

Of course there are riders who have been succesfull starting out their and Ben Wilson is the most recent.He can ride the smaller tracks away from home but has learn't on the sheff training track!. Luke Priest learn't from Grasstrack before he went their a while ago.

Im sure many will disagree with me but it's my view on the track.
