Steve Shovlar Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I would say don't wste your money on Nicki Pedersen or Adams. NP yesterday was passed by both BP and KK in the same race. Not fast enough. Adams rides the track well but his current form is slightly down and I don't think he will make the final. PK is great odds at 25. he is excellent on the track and is a good outside bet. I reckon the final could be Crump, Bjarne, Nicholls and KK.

With the GP less than a week away, these guys are going to want to fire a warning shot to the opposition. There's about 7 or 8 riders there tomorrow that could win it on their day.

Starman2006 Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Poole should be grateful that the incident between the Pedersens yesterday may brighten up an otherwise dull meeting. Wouldnt surprise me if Mr Ford said to Nikki Look the ELRC is going to be boring for the paying public due to the lack of passing at Wimborne Road can you spice things up a bit. Dont bother going tomorrow people save yer dosh for better things and watch it on the box I bet you a grand Shovlar there wont be more than 10 passes in the whole meeting. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> On the other ELRC thread you said there would only be 5 passing manoveours in 20 heats. Make your mind up mate!. That 5 more than you would get around your drum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent Vega Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I see the Peterborough fans are still gutted about going out of the cup last week then!!! IMHO tomorrows ELRC would be better off at Kings Lynn due to the track providing better racing which after all is the most important thing to the people attending and anyone especially newcomers watching it on Sky. The 2004 ELRC was at Poole dont remember that being a cracking meeting to watch. Also seems like all the decent action in the Easty v Poole meetings yesterday was at Arlington. Says it all really. Everyone knows the only reason the meeting was given to Poole was cos Mr Ford is pally with the Sky bigwigs and his face fits end of story.

Guest PanthersChamp06 Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 (edited) Not really gutted VV. Atleast are team dont throw strops because the track is not to there liking moaning that the track is to Grippy do Arena know what Grip is?? Ronnie Russell and the riders at EOES threatening to walk out what a joke Hans was only 0.2 seconds of the TR so the Track couldn't of been that bad. I know Trevor Swales and the Panthers team wont cry about the track when we go to Arena next time. I have a feeling that this ELRC will be really good with great racing.

I've been going to speedway for over 30 years now all over the country, and I have still yet to see meetings with the passing that some on here crave for, and claim to witness. So where is the place to go then? P.S. I bet someone says Arena Essex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vincent Vega Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Listen people it is just my opinion that the meeting should have been held at Saddlebow Road instead. I hope all of you who go have a great time and the racing lives up to the Poole fans expectations. Lets hear peoples predictions then so we can win some dosh off the bookies. Vega Verdict: 1st Crump 2nd B Pedersen 3rd Nikki 4th Mr Kasprazak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjarne 2nd Grump 3rd. Adams 4th. Nicki P Edited April 15, 2006 by pirate paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says it all really. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not sure if you posted this as a windup but I will respond. The meeting at Poole yeaterday was the best one so far this season with a ton of action. Loads of passing from both teams and everyone left well happy. Last night at Eastbourne there wasn't as much passing as in the morning, but the controvesy made the encounter pretty good (thogh not for us Poole fans) Expect top notch racing and action tomorrow.

SCB Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 (edited) 10 passes in one meeting - I'll have some of that. So where is the place to go then? Somerset? Yesterday for example, heat 1 and Phillips goes from 4th to 2nd (2 passes) heat 3 and Wilkinson passed Fry, maybe slightly dubious as Fry stopped a few second later (1 pass) Heat 5 and Schramm was passed by Fry and had to re-pass him. With the lines they were taking, you never quite knew if Fry was in 2nd, 3rd or 4th as it was possible he was ahead of Schramm, behind Neil or even meyabe between the 2. (2 passes at least, maybe 10 in that one heat! So we're up to 5) Heat 6 and Zorro passed Wato, parsons passed Phillips, Phillips re-passed (+3, 8) Heat 7 and Cunnigham went from 3rd, passing his team mate and Wilkinson to take the win. Won't count passing his team mate (+1, 9) Heat 8, both rebels passed Schrammy but both had to work hard and I'd argue that the Phillips vs Schrammy battle meant they swapped position 2 or 3 times (2 clean passes, maybe even as much as 6 passes, depeind on angles. 11 passes!) Heat 10, Wilko 4th to 2nd. (+1,12) Heat 11, Collins passed Walker, Schrammy passed Walker, Walker passed Schramm. (+3, 15) Heat 12, Parsons passes Katt, Katt passes Parsons (+2, 17!!!!) Heat 13 and Zorro from last to 1st, Collins passes Zorro (+3, 20!!!!) Heat 14, Parson passes Fry, Fry re-passes on the next bend (+2, 22!!!!) Heta 15, Zorro 4th to 1st (+2, 24!!!) So AT LEAST 22 passes in 12 heats and then there the rides where riders were all over the rider in front but did not actually get the pass).

21st century heathen Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 If you take the usual suspects out of the equation then PK looks a good bet on those odds. Also Scotty was very quick last night, but that was on a very grippy track (not having a pop at Poole but it was very grippy at Brandon), and Hans was also pretty quick and forceful at Monmore. At least half the field have a genuine chance of winning. Given the right track conditions, and the fact that it's just before the first GP, we could have a cracking meeting.

SCB Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Anyone mentioned Lee Richardson? Always seems to step up another level when Sky are at a meeting, other than the GP's that is! A Lee R, PK, KK podium would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
