Martin Emerson F, -, -, -, - = 0 R Phil Naylor 1, 0, 0, 1 = 2 Joe Haines was in a class of his own tonight a won quite easily wih a maximum. Had to pass from the back just the once, his last ride against Byron Bekker. Dissappoiting crowd tonight, seemed to be less there then there has been for this meeting the last few years. Was some good racing but not quite as entertaining as the last couple of years. Interesting though that there wasn't a single rerun race. Just the one race being stopped and awarded. Jade Mudgway turned up late after getting stuck in traffic and missed his first two rides. Edited July 18, 2007 by Rob B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Clemens Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Joe Haines was a worthy winner with an efficient 15 point max I thought Aaron Summers was the most exciting rider on the night pity he didn't score more consistently. Poor crowd as Rob says - I often wonder what the young riders make of this enthusiasm by the supporters Most of the races were processional with some passing in too few races Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngy105 Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Just got back from the meeting via a shopping trip to the 24 hour tesco (why is it busy this late on a wednesday evening). Crowd was ok but not great. Joe Haines was a class apart from everyone else. Made 4 lightning starts and the one race he didn't gate he just used his brain and hugged the inside to great effect. Only one race out of 20 was strung out and it was strung out, there was almost 3/4 of a lap between 1st and last. Judging by tonight the future of British Speedway should be fine for some time yet. I don't know who got awarded the most exciting rider on the night as I had to leave straight after the run off cos the little un needed a feed....See Speedway Star June 23rd edition (the one with Chris Holder on the cover) and turn to page 27 (top right) to see me, the little un, the wife and simon stead. Enjoyed the meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Naylor.........1, 1, 0 = 2 Heat Results Heat 01: Tully, Hopwood, Dalloway, Norton Time: 61.4 Great gate by Tully off gate 4. Hopwood moved into second on the third bend of the opening lap. Heat 02: Summers, Taylor, Morris, Hodgson Time: 62.2 Hodgson slipped off on the third bend, lap 1 and retired from the race. Morris was over half a lap behind the first two. Heat 03: Lambert, Bekker, Martin, Richardson Time: 62.6 Won from the gate. Heat 04: Haines, Blair, Naylor, Emerson Time: 60.9 Phil Naylor replaced Jade Mudgway as he's stuck in traffic. Won from the gate. Emerson fell on the first bend of lap 2. Heat 05: Haines, Hopwood, Martin, Hodgson Time: 61.4 Hodgson went from second to last on the last lap. Heat 06: Richardson, Dalloway, Summers ef (three riders only) Time: 62.1 There were only two finishers.

Mudgway has arrived but didn't have time to prepare for this heat. There will now be a short break while Kevin Doolan tests an engine and it's been confirmed that Josh Auty will guest for Belle Vue in Monday's match against Ipswich. It could be R/R for Linbdback. Heat 09: Lambert, Summers, Mudgway, Hopwood 62.0 From the gate. Hopwood slid off on the third bend of lap 1. Heat 10: Blair, Bekker, Dalloway, Hodgson Time: 61.3 From the gate - Hodgson spun on the first turn and retired.

Richardson fell and remounted. Heat 13: Taylor, Hopwood, Bekker, Naylor Time: 61.6 Bekker fell and remounted to pass Naylor. The track is now very slick - not Vojens slick! but slick. Heat 14: Haines, Lambert, Dalloway, Morris Time: 61.3 Haines is looking very quick tonight and is making great starts. Heat 15: Richardson, Hodgson, Mudgway, Norton Time: 64.0 Mudgway fell and remounted. Norton fell on the last bend of the last lap. Heat 16: Tully, Blair, Martin, Summers Time: 61.4 The best race of the night. Tully went from third to first in two laps. Heat 17: Blair, Hopwood, Richardson, Morris No time - race awarded. The race was awarded when Morris high-sided it on the last lap. Heat 18: Dalloway, Martin, Taylor, Mudgway Time: 63.1 Close race between the first three with Mudgway some way off at the back. Heat 19: Haines, Bekker, Summers, Norton Time: 61.7 Haines passed Bekker on the inside of the fourth bend on the second lap to win the Championship with a maximum. Heat 20: Tully, Lambert, Naylor, Hodgson Time: 62.0 Tully passed Lambert on the second lap. Hodgson fell on the second lap. There will now be a run-off between Andrew Tully and Greg Blair for second place. Run-off for second place: Tully, Blair Tully was off the inside in red while Blair was off gate 3 in green. Tully made the gate and Blair couldn't make up the ground. ************************* Comments: Line-up: From the original line-up Martin Emerson replaces Adam Roynon who is riding in the meeting at Poole while Aaron Summers replaces Karl Mason who is unwell. Referee: Graham Reeve Weather: OK Format: Standard 20 heats with top scorer winning. There will be no grand final. Track: looks good but on the slick side. Minute's silence observed for former referee Will Hunter who died this afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedyguy Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Good Luck to the guy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Jade Mudgway has appeared frequently on the pages of Speedway Star over the past couple of years during the winter months when they give coverage to the NZ scene. There's also a Steve Mudgway. Both ride mainly at the Palmerston North track, which gives a few speedway heats during its mainly midget car, sprint car and stock car programme. He has taken a very big step and wonder how he will fare in the UK and Europe. Let's wish him well...I think he will find it tough going on this side of the world..

Rob B Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 He looked very tall and had a strange style, virtually stood up going into the bends, must of been about a foot between his backside and the seat. Thinking now reminds me a bit of Frank Smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking now reminds me a bit of Frank Smart. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's a contradiction!! Franks head spent most of it's time below the handle bars so his arse was planted firmly on the seat! Unless he was crashing spectacularly of course Having looked at the photos on Ian Charles site, he looks like Kristan Lund/Nicki Glanz.

Rob B Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Maybe I was wrong but seemed to remember Frank guesting at Belle Vue few times long time ago and standing up going into the bends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 (edited) I guess with Frank it's entirely possible, the only consistent thing about his style is that it was unorthodox! The picture I saw of him looked nothing like this Edited July 20, 2007 by SCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
