Irk Deflector Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 I'm thinking this is well worth a visit. Likely to be a very entertaining meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think this has the potential to be a cracker. Hopefully the track is set up with a good dirt line around the outside, with plenty of moisture, not the natural type though .

greyhoundp Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hmm, I can see Dudley taking Group A, mainly b,cuz the remainder of the Group do not have 2 riders scoring consistently, or not in there best form. Group B looks to me likely to be Mildenhall & Coventry, from those three I couldn't really pick out the eventual winners, but if I had to I would choose Dudley, mainly because of Lewis,s track knowledge, Ash Morris will back him up solidly, and I don't know how Dan Halsey or James Sarjeant are going to perform on the day, Stefan and Robert will both go well b,cuz they can gate. Good luck to all the riders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irk Deflector Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Cracking meeting on a well prepared track. Well done Dudley. Fish and Chips were awesome. Always are! What was the ref playing at? On 2 occasions he was very slow to stop races when riders had fallen. The second time he was so slow that one of the 3 remaining riders (Boxall) had to lay his bike down a lap later to avoid Smart. Smart took no further part in the meeting - not sure if he was injured or if his bike was wrecked by Boxall's bike hitting Smart's. The incident happened on lap 2 in the middle of bends 1and 2 the red lights didn't go on until Boxall was going, at speed in to the 1st bend on lap 3! Bl**** Dangerous!!!!!! Ref should be banned or undertake additional training! Just got back to Sunny Kent.Good meeting,close racing,seemed decent crowd,hope all fallen riders OK.Well done Dudley,deserved winners.Supporting Kent,we done ourselves proud (Boxall very quick).Oh and the fish and chips were superb. Boxall was head and shoulders above the others unfortunately he didn't get the backing from his team mate. That said his team mate was there or there abouts and looked good to getter better as the meeting progressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Rabbit Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) Entertaining meeting (falls aside) on a difficult to work on track which dried out as soon as water was put down. Some great rides, especially Dan Halsey's heat 12 effort against the Coventry pairing and well ridden Luke Priest in heat 18 - I doubt many saw that win coming against the home club pairing. Keep serving up entertainment like that and you'll have at least two more regulars at West Row - not that this was our fist time this year though. According to the programme, Craig Ackroyd was the referee. Had he made it back from Copenhagen or was there a guest in his place?

Main Man Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 It was Dale Entwistle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junior fan Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 It was Dale Entwistle Is he a local , sounded dodgy he re ran heat 12 when a decleration would have put the home team out but declared the race a cpl of heats earlier. Perhaps a change of venue is needed. Junior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Behave..Both should have been re-run imo..Can't award a race after 2 laps..Why he did that for the 1st 1 I've no idea.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
