Recommended Posts

Dont get the 12 month gap, if thats true how come tungate, ward, woodward and so on are coming back .

 

Tungate's renewal date is reported as just before the start of the season, and will be back in country before that to renew it.

For anybody who feels starved of speedway and wants a small fix this weekend. See below taken from Rye House Website.

 

The Cavalcade of Speed being staged at Rye House Stadium by the Quad Racing Association is now less a week away, with a dateline of Sunday, February 23rd. The doors will open to the public at noon, with licensed bars and fast food outlets also available.

 

As well as the excitement of the powerful Quad bikes, there will also be mini-bike action, plus six or seven Speedway demonstration races. New Rockets No.1 Edward Kennett is set to feature in that part of the programme, together with Testimonial star Luke Bowen and Steve Boxall, plus Kent Kings Ben Morley, Daniel Blake and Brandon Freemantle.

 

The meeting is planned to go ahead regardless of the weather, so rain or shine the public will have a final chance to see track action at Rye House before the new air fence is fitted.

 

Admission is: Adults at £5, with children free. A race card will also be on sale.

It'll be the cheapest meeting you'll see this year!

More importantly will Jason Garrity be fit and raring to go at the start of the season ? I certainly hope so and if he qualifies for world U21s he must go and rattle some of our European friends.bloody shame TN won't be over though, he and JG Missing the gate at Rye House then dishing out the entertainment is money well spent

Went to Rye today for the Quad racing, the track looked in quite good condition considering all the rain we have had this winter.

There was some demonstration races involving Edward Kennett,Steve Boxall, Ben Morley, Dan Blake and Luke Bowen.

Ed & Steve looked quick, Luke diid a few laps and didn't appear any more (had an engine problem).

If they carry on how the were today and remain injury free, could be a good season.

I was there for a while, up until the interval. Not enough speedway for me, the quad bikes and the mini bikes didn't interest me, besides, we were all hungry. Likes the look of Edward and Steve too, except for Edwards bike troubles early on. I too couldn't believe how dry the track looked, I was expecting a swamp. Looks as though the 1st/2nd bend fence has been moved out a bit, exposing even more adverse camber, but I suppose the air fence will take up most of that. I thought theyre'd be more people there though. Good to hear the sound of the bikes again. The air fence is going up within a week I was told

LETTER FROM NZ

Rye House captain Jason Bunyan dropped promoter Len Silver a line this week which will also be of interest to Rockets supporters, as the now-9-times New Zealand Champion talked candidly about his preparation for the new season and his Wildcard spot at the Auckland Grand Prix….

“I have been keeping busy trying to get fit, with the loan of a spin bike from Grant & Sharon at Midas Onehunga, a motocross bike from Andrew at Elf and a nice set of scales from Graham Standring... it’s OK, I took the hint! I'm currently 3kgs lighter than when I saw you last, with the aim of losing a couple more!

“I am really looking forward to fly boarding on Saturday - adrenalin junky that I am!

“I did an interview last month on the Pits radio show - - which can be found under the link for 19/02/14, and I understand that I am appearing in the Sunday Star Times this week.

“I am currently working on some training dates to go and help the up and coming Juniors on the South Island this month, and I am looking forward to that, as helping the juniors is always rewarding.

“On the bike front, two fresh engines are on their way from Denmark courtesy of the wonderful Brian Karger and Jesper Kristiansen - so I'm keen to get testing to find some base settings in the next few weeks. This will hopefully allow me to eliminate two of the four engines I would like to use at the GP, before I arrive at Western Springs on the 3rd of April for the first unofficial practice. My plan to eliminate two of the engines will mean I can use the sessions – only six minutes on the Thursday and Friday - to finalise a set up that I am happy with, rather than use the sessions to try all four engines.”

Sounds like he's got enough equipment to kit out a whole Team.
