Steve0 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Isnt this the cov vs brum site, or have I gone into the grand prix one. Can't understand how anyone can bring up the SGPs when talking about Coventry and Brum? And before anyone gets all upset - I'm only joking! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TesarRacing Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 From a neutral perspective, very impressed with Jason Garrity and Lewis Blackbird on Friday. Olly Greenwood and Josh Bates didn't disgrace themselves either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come come TR, you cant have been very impressed with them - you know they are way out of their depth in the EL But in other unbiased news i agree quite a few of them are really reaping the benefit of the system.

philfromcov Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 He's a liability at times. A wonderful, entertaining thrill merchant at others. In recent weeks it's been the former. having watched the crash on you tube, you have to wonder what (if anything) was going on in fishers head being biased is great as a supporter and at the time it appeared a racing incident, but it just looks odd, no attempt to avoid at all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Got to agree with that. Always been a big Fish fan but I've just watched the youtube too and Fish didn't seem to straighten up or hit a bump/rut or anything - just seemed to keep going on a line which could only end in a big contact. Odd since it was going to hurt him too - but Josh went into the fence at a frightening speed. Hope he makes a good recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyhine Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 What's the link for the crash I can't find it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Looking af the crash, can only assume fisher picked up a little extra drive and just utterly miscalculated his line - maybe josh g cornered slightly slower than he anticipated? Ive never seen a crash like thst before tbh, where a rider has just gone full steam into another. Really bizarre. Hope both riders make speedy recoveries.

TesarRacing Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Easy for us supporters to say when we are not out there on the bike, making a split decision at the time, possibly affected by poor visibilty through your goggles/tear-offs with pressure on your performance from the terraces!!! Just saying like! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starman2006 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Is there anybody on here who was stood on that bend and saw the incident, truthfully. Would be interested to hear how they saw it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shale Searcher Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I wasn't there, but to me, it looked like Fisher just straightened up and ran into the side of him, but not the usual left side T boning, he sort of ran over his footrest on the blind side, this caused JG to straighten and accelerate into the fence full head on.. first time i've seen that sort of collision.... Definitely no intent from RF.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baille Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 I was on the third bend when the crash happened. It seemed that Ryan just caught some grip going into middle of turn three and straightened up. It wasnt a major jolt but enough to catch Josh's bike and send both of them to the fence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 i was in the stands. He missed the gate and was trying to power round. it looks like he just lost control (might have been due to extra grip who knows) and then he lost control. There was no intent there. Fisher could have got badly injured himself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Looking at the YouTube clip, It looks as though the air fence is still not secured at the base as it lifted alarmingly again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Looking at the YouTube clip, It looks as though the air fence is still not secured at the base as it lifted alarmingly again!! It happens at most if not all tracks when a bike goes straight into the fence like that especially when it punctures. Thank god for the air fence because his injuries wouldve been much more serious.
