EnglishRoundabout Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 I wouldn't be going overboard with beating panthers today ,panthers didn't have a lot of luck but overall a well deserved victory for zummerset very impressed with Charles wright again , and josh g ride in 15 was top notch I think the Rebels fans will disagree with you there! Fantastic win for Somerset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgy Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Thought this would be a difficult first meeting against a decent Somerset side. Outgated in most heats but despite the slick track some good racing, could have been a classic with a few more racing lines. Josh and Kurtz looked very quick and Wright improving every season. Think the Rebels will be up there again, even after the late team changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukas Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) I know I'll get shot down for this but i actualy thought wright saw Allen coming and leaned on him. Also Kurtz jumped or rolled at the start 3 or 4 times and only got pulled back once...not that it mattered as he still flew past everyone on the one time he missed it!..

SCB Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Â Allen didn't have a crash - he just caused Chas Wright to fall and so was disqualified. Hwo did he manage that without crashing then? Run up behind him an shout "booo"? Genuine question BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) Very entertaining meeting I thought very impressed with Braby Kurtz thought he was awesome - as for Panthers Allen was poor and couldn't sit still at the starts and Simon Lambert was poor also - as for the track I thought the track staff are clueless all the dirt near the fence and made no attement to bring it in towards the none existent White line . Good meeting very impressed with Somerset Is Brady Kurtz any relation to Todd? Regarding the track it's always difficult when meetings are held in the afternoon but I thought the track staff did a decent enough job. The ones on the 3rd/4th bend were definitely bringing the shale back towards the inside line after races and I was quite impressed to actually see track rakers. Don't have them any more at Coventry or a lot of other tracks. If that's what the racing is like on a "poor" track then I'm glad I'll be able to come to all the Sunday meetings this season. Really enjoyed it, although it's a shame Panthers didn't win. Â Â Â .......SCB.......Hwo did he manage that without crashing then? Run up behind him an shout "booo"? Genuine question BTW. Shawn....you really should get yourself to some meetings this season as you're obviously forgetting what Speedway is like. Of course a rider can cause another to crash without actually falling off himself. Edited March 22, 2015 by Gemini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) Yes, he crashed in his second race and was taken to hospital. Any news how he is? Edited March 22, 2015 by Gemini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did Olly do to warrant an exclusion if he didn't crash into Wright? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willowman Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Neither team should get too excited by this opener as there is an awefully long way to go but needless to say I would rather take this than a good old Ipswich Foxall thrashing.

P T Preece Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Having been to Leicester last week and saw an awful meeting with one decent race it was great to come to Peterborough this afternoon and see a cracker of a meeting, love this track, roll on more sunday afternoons. Nice and close all the way through and a last heat decider what more could you ask for really enjoyed that. Happy bunny this evening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityrebel Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) A very good meeting at the showground this afternoon. Nice to see a decent size crowd at a venue that could have been lost to speedway. Edited March 22, 2015 by cityrebel 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did Olly do to warrant an exclusion if he didn't crash into Wright? Â Crash noun 1. a violent collision, typically of one vehicle with another or with an object. Â Â There was no violent collision - might have been a smallish tap. But enough for Chas to come off while Allen sailed off into the sunshine. Â But Chas was up and waiting to confront him when he came round!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Najjer Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Rye House won at Peterborough first meeting last year and look where they finished The difference is I suppose, this is Somerset who have reached the play off final in the past 3 seasons. Not to mention this is the first season for a while for whatever reason we aren't overly fancied - so it bodes well winning today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
