speedyguy Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Supposedly this international Solo series is the major speedway event of the season in NZ (the SGP excepted), it is incredibly sad how bad the media coverage for this series is. One can not even find complete race results, or know where and when the meetings did or did not take place. Is there any sort of overall series points standings, or is it just a serious of fun events? It's hardly been mentioned on the international pages of 'Speedway Star.'

peterh7 Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) ... Final. Bunyan 1, Tregonning 2, Finch 3, McKinlay (dnf) 4. The first lap of the final was electric. Jason led from the gate and through the first bend. Grant wound it on down the back straight and drew alongside of Jason and may have even been ahead going into the third corner but he drifted wide or ran out of room and was unable to catch Jason after that. That's how it looked to me - if anyone was sitting near the third corner I'd be interested to know what happened there.

Erm I can't remember..... from in the box I do remember that the 1st lap was a good one with it looking like Grant was going to push Jason all the way, but once Jason rounded him it was 1 way traffic.... edit: Forgot to add that when Grant and Jason met, Grant clearly rolled into the tapes before Ryan Moss went through them. All of us in line with the tapes saw it, as the ref did too, but I'm not sure what it looked like from elsewhere.... is there anyone able to comment on if it could be seen from elsewhere in the stadium? For Grant to then gesture towards the ref was a bit silly, but once he calmed down he set about his business well to earn the direct spot into the final... he tried to roll and just happened to get caught Edited February 19, 2012 by thehammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the confusion if there was any was that Ryan thought he was out and moved to the grass. It was a very good meeting. Well run and no controversial decisions or antics. And I think i'm right in saying all Jason's races in each round were a good couple of seconds faster than the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally understand in that situation emotions were high, and as I said once he calmed down again he set about the business well and rightfully earnt his place in the final.... there has definately been a lot more shown. It was definately Grant that was first to roll into the tapes, Godfrey was indeed in the race off gate 3, and could have then touched the tapes himself that set Ryan off who was the one that looked more obvious by it all. It was pointed out that Ryan was the one to go initially, but via the radio the ref then informed the other officials it was Grant who was then removed from the race. I'm not trying to make out that Grant is a cheater, and in terms of New Zealand racers he is one of the professionals both in terms of set up and his approach. This was not the only race though he was moving at the start, whether he was just trying to pre guess the tapes of what, but it was definately not just the 1 heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 the ref at the riders briefing said he would only penalise touching the tapes, as our NZ rulebook doesn't penalise for moving forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Know Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 the ref at the riders briefing said he would only penalise touching the tapes, as our NZ rulebook doesn't penalise for moving forward. is that due to not being able to detect the between moveing forward or racing due to the speed being pretty much the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedyguy Posted February 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 (edited) Moore Park calendar: http://www.moorepark...z/calander.html I think the internationals are riding at Ruapuna on Saturday 7th January. So two meetings on successive nights in Christchurch. I hope it is on the big track and not on the training track on the infield. I know this is rather belated but is there a complete schedule available for the recent Sunday News Elf Oils International Solo Series? All that is needed is the full itinerary - the date of the meeting and the track. Also, any details of the track and date if a meeting in the series was called off. Thank you for any help that may be forthcoming. Edited February 26, 2012 by speedyguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
