racers and royals Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Congratulations to the speedway Star for another superb preview edition. Seems to be a lot of new faces this year in the fans view part of the teams preview-any forum members amongst the 23 featured ? Will Manchester Paul find anything wrong with it ? looks like we will have to download the mini-max race card (or an alternative) for Saturday`s GP as the Star didn`t have room for it in this week`s publication.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Now it starts to feel like the season is here! Still 8 days to wait for us Witches to see home action but at least now there something to fill the time other than Batchelargate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickthemuppet Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Congratulations to Philip Rising and company . The best ever. Possibly more pages than some of Norman Jacobs books. Very well done. Edited March 21, 2013 by mickthemuppet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsloes 1928 nearly Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Could have done with an index, it took me an hour to find Poole A major improvement to revert to aphabetical order! Far easier to use when/if being used during the year to get directions to a track! Don't worry the Pirates are still predicted to finish first!!! Possibly more pages than some of Norman Jacobs books. Very well done. Though only a tenth of the number of pages in a Jeff Scott tome!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frigbo Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Who the Hell is this Andrew Freeguard bloke ? Never heard of him. That Andy Freegard geezer is tops though apparently!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 A snow day from work, so just getting stuck into it. Just noticed that the second para of the Lakeside review in the Havvy section has a 71 word sentence. Top effort! Having said that I'm enjoying reading Havvy's comments about the tracks.

blueherb777 Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Great issue as ever to Preview Season. Just a shame that the Worrall saga has made the prediction of Lakeside wrong finishing 5th - more like 7th/8th.And how can they predict Kent will finish 7th- 1) Still 2 riders to name 2) Can guarantee a lot higher than 7th. IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz01 Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Ive very much enjoyed reading it and very much worth the £2.80. Well done to Phil and the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman2006 Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 All this said, what a stupid idea to bring it out this week, a week before all clubs go into action. They would have sold double the amount of stars next week, yes a very good read as per usual for the Bumper edition, but very bad timing.

PHILIPRISING Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 THANKS for all the nice comments. Haven't seen it yet, hoping one will arrive here in Auckland before I leave on Tuesday. Timing? Had the NZ GP been next week we would have published then but 128 pages is our max and wouldn't have had room for proper Auckland coverage. But it doesn't really date like a normal issue and hopefully will keep selling over Easter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheelsinline Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Superb issue this week. Enough to get any speedway fan salivating for the beginning of the season. Congrats to all involved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked mine up from local Sainsburys where there will usually be 3 or 4 on the shelf but this week there was 20 and they have now all gone. Had I have missed out I would have picked 1 up at Foxhall on Good Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think thats what Mike's worried about, having to carry 2 lots around with him on Friday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
