Might be worth a read in particular the first couple of paragraphs re. patriality.

 

http://speedwayresults.com/result.php?type=538&season=2013 <- Danish League meeting this year, he beat Kenneth Bjerre yet he's a 3.00 for 2014 o.O

Brady Kurtz is the most highly rated Aussie since Chris Holder, he could quite easily be challenging for a heat leader spot fairly quickly, so that bit of a tail would be outweighed. If he doesn't click ...well.

So how can Brady Kurtz start on a 3? (He competed in the New South Wales U21 Championships in Kurri Kurri in Occtober) and also in a professional league this year Danish div 1.

 

17.2.2 The Assessed MA's for new Riders to the EL /PL racing is:
Cat 2: Riders with an “end of the previous season’s published average” in the Polish Ekstraliga or Swedish Elitserien of 6.00 and below plus ALL other Riders riding currently in any Professional Speedway League, PL 7.00
Cat 4: Commonwealth and USA (to a maximum of 4 each season) Riders new to British Speedway PL 5.00
Cat 5: Riders who have ridden in the National Development League as an Amateur PL 3.00
And also how does his brother Todd get a reduction as he rode in the Australian National Championships in Jan this year... but did compete in the NL in 2011 :neutral:

I think the rules are there to be bent. That's Speedway!

But how can they be? He has ridden in 2 matches in Denmark's "Elite" league and 13 in their 2nd tier. Its bad enough that he would be classed as a Cat 4 on a 5.00 ave but now it seems he "qualifies" as a Cat 2 rider and thats a full 4 points off his ave!
