posh panther Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 I dont like to see any riders hurt but am i the only one who thought Holtas gate/1st bend was the funniest thing ever seen in top flight speedway?..it looked like they picked some random vodka fuelled polska out the crowd to give it a go..and then he did it again!..in even better style.. what was he doing!!?i was p****** myself..even he had a chuckle at himself. top man!.now i forgive him for ruining crumpys chances the other year going down so easy great G.P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century heathen Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 (edited) Yep, I was pleased to see him get up because he could easily have broken his ankle under the bike as he came to rest. But you're right, it was a comedy classic. 'Anything TRick can do I can do better'. If only he could have come down on the wheels. *edit* Good on him for having a laugh at himself. That guy in his pit crew couldn't stop chuckling so I think Rune had to see the funny side. Top man.

Guest Schumi Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 (edited) No, but Kelvin's commentary was. He kept interrupting just to say "let's see that again," like a little kid in a sweet shop. Edited May 13, 2007 by Schumi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subedei Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 It was rather funny. But, fair play to Holta, leaving aside Harris' heroics, his overtake was one of the high points of the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 He's so predictable!! you just know coming off gate 4 he's going to struggle to stay on the bike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a while since we've seen that kind of racing from him. Classy move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liverstam Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Holta's wall of death ride was an instant classic! Could not stop laughing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 How frustrating was Holta on Saturday night. Twice he looked like a rookie from Gate 4 then he produced the ride of the night(apart from Bomber) to pass Zagar. A shade unlucky not to reach the semi's given that he beat Andersen. Hope for better from him in Sweden next time out. As others have mentioned at least he could laugh at himself, I could think of some others on the circuit who would have spat the dummy and banished the cameras from his pits area after that 2nd fall.
