weatherwatcher Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Which stand? The one nearest the pits. In the disabled seats. Edited February 18, 2014 by weatherwatcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert72 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 It will be an interesting season at BP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwatcher Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Should be a good season at BP. Lionking on a bad day I will be in my wheelchair getting battered by shale in the disabled section between the stands. Just look for the brown trilby.

1 valve Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Considering their respective positions in the league, I would say that the Coventry B team was the one actually called the Bees! You mean that things are going to change? I mean I dont know the answer but suspect things wont change - even if we win every match and BP is voted by all riders as the best and the race track Carlsberg would build if they built speedway tracks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The riders and the spectators have different needs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I wonder if any track modifications will be made to suit the home riders? I wonder how much GT will discuss with the riders what their preferred track surface is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justathought Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 No they are going to set it up so the away team like it better. What do you think. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwatcher Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 We seem to have gone very quite on here. I have given the Ben Race a lot of thought. I like what the money goes to, but I am afraid the team GB does not inspire me enough to pay any money to go and see them, against a team from the rest of the world. We just haven't got what it takes, a couple of riders that could win races and a few that may or may not win races and those with no chance at all. So I will be staying at home for that one. What are the rest of you going to do, and what are your personel thoughts on our team GB. Give them a few more years and they may just about be able to put up a team that are worth watching, but at the moment a don't think they have a chance.

I personally couldn't give a monkeys about the teams or if GB is good enough, the cause is far more important on this occasion and it is a very worthwhile one. But hopefully the RoW team won't be too strong and it will be a close match, but as i said i think that's a secondary issue, just on this particular occasion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Any news on the RoW team? Do not think so, but just hope it is not a team full of GP riders. GB needs a meeting where they have a chance of winning but they have to fight for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have liked to be there but I have a previously arranged engagement at Stoneleigh that weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidder1 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Any news on the RoW team? Scott Nicholls plus 6 others, apparently!! To include (possibly) Doyle, Ljung, Hougaard and Korneliussen?? Edited February 23, 2014 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrall Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 My gut feeling is that the teams will be evenenly matched with a few Leicester riders in the rest of the world team. Let's also not forget that Cookie is the fastest man around Beaumont Park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of who is in the respective teams, it will also be good just to see some on track action again after a long winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
