manchesterpaul Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 I like to see Harris make a good GP gate as it guarantees we'll get three overtakes in the race lol. Sorry that cruel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonimac Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 having only come back to the sport a couple of years ago, I dont have the same sentimentality as some about Chris Harris. He is a good bloke- arent 90% of them? But he isnt competitive at this level and every time I watch him in the GP, i just think about what Emil could be doing instead. Turning up with a duff bike in the first heat is just unacceptable from a sport and entertainment point of view. Yes, he saved Coventry last night but perhaps that is his level now? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedwayfun Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 I am no expert but I really don't see the point of these tracks. Where there are wider tracks etc we get overtaking so why persist with this sort of track. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manchesterpaul Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Smoli needs to step it up this next race to avoid being a Supernova lol. I am no expert but I really don't see the point of these tracks. Where there are wider tracks etc we get overtaking so why persist with this sort of track. Â 100% agree and that's exactly the OBVIOUS observation Peter Collins made in the Speedway Star a few years ago. I was shocked when i came back to speedway and the plethora of toy trick tracks seemingly abundant. Then again maybe my opinion is coloured by being a Belle Vue fan and i left the sport when the wide open racy Hyde Road track closed down.

Slightly unfair......it is a permanent speedway track that hosts a number of meetings per season,not just a one-off and is an ok stadium in a pretty amazing city.All going for it really as long as they blooming well get the track sorted out for once!!!!!Which they have been promising for donkeys years......get that small factor right and it is a perfect setting Edited May 31, 2014 by iris123 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandonbee48 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 I forget now. Do inside overtakes on the fourth bend as NKI did in heat 17 count or is that just because the riders are "rubbish". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Well it's livened up a bit now. Â Still think this track is not worthy of what is allegedly the best speedway in the world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonimac Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Shame for Kasprzak. Great start to the season and very unfortunate. I expect him to withdraw from the GP now for surgery, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, you are amazing. Where have I said all inside passes are down to rider error? I was right that night, you just seem to want to take my comments on that meeting an extrapolate them over all meetings. Says more about you than my observations on that meeting. Edited May 31, 2014 by SCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
