Goodiepatchie Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 The Panthers riders I spoke to afterwards said that they struggled with the 3rd & 4th bends, because the surface was very patchy, & a bit bumpy. Why did Berwick have an interval when it was trying to rain ? Credit to all the riders, who gave 100 % in every race. Team spirit seems to have been good all weekend, & I think our new manager deserves the credit for that. Nice to meet bigeddiecheck, a proper speedway fan, & gentleman. Good to see Claus ok after his 2 falls. Wish we had signed him instead of Fisher at the start of the meeting.seemed a strange decision to have an interval and a long one too 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Ipswich are a law unto themselves when it comes to intervals. Last time I was there they announced an interval after heat 11, then changed it suddenly to after heat 8 when Risager was having bike trouble. You can guess what happened once racing resumed.

RHayes Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 15.1.1 No Interval shall be taken before the conclusion of Heat 10 (15-heat League Meeting) or Heat 12 (20+ Heat Individual Meeting), except where the Referee deems it necessary.

There have been times in the past, when it seemed there was an interval after every heat at Foxhall. There is no excuse for slow presentation imo..

Arson fire Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) Â Firstly, I didn't say that you have criticised the track, furthermore, I have never suggested that fans should advise on track preparation. I don't understand the dark art, and stated that I would genuinely be interested if anyone on here could shed some light on how it is done. I'm sure there will be some folk on here that do. Â Moving on from that, I completely agree with your post. Our riders know the shape, size, and topography of the track as an initial advantage. This should give them a head start over the opposition when it comes to adapting to surface conditions. Â Peterborough seemed to have no problem with that last night. Â Â Â Agree. Â I think last night might be a wake-up call that we might not be able to continue the early start without some "adjustments". why don't you ask the track man??... In person, like you like too ...

screm Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Good to see Bellego must have been back on the best bikes in Poland today scoring 10 pts for Ostrow, must of just been on a bag of nails last night, good to see where his priorities are. Â Steen Jensen was riding in the same meeting and scored 8pts from 5 rides, all second places, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilali Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 Â Steen Jensen was riding in the same meeting and scored 8pts from 5 rides, all second places, Yeah I seen that. Imo Bellego is alot more talented rider which makes his score on sat absolutely unacceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catch Me If You Can Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 In the beginning God created Man. Then on the second day he created sad idiots who use Speedway Forums, me included. Sadly in many cases he did not make a very good job of them!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this forum stuff isn't real life to you,it's just aP#ss take judging by a number of your posts and comments IMO.Hook ,line and sinker spring to mind.
