Recommended Posts

Can I be bothered to drive a few miles up the road to this one without my companion? :neutral:

ARGH! I swear the management have booked a guest to piss us off after the majority voiced their displeased on Monday. Why the hell have we booked a 4.5 PL guest when we have a 7.00 PL rider who can take 3 of the rides and a 6.5 EL rider who can take another?

Bringing in Heeps is bizarre to say the least. Is he a track specialist because it's a poor move otherwise.

Maybe you should change companions lol ;)

I've already got a spare but not much good really as they still wouldn't let me through the gate at Leicester.

Miserable sods. :lol:

Funny people from Leicester so I have heard they let people with webbed fingers in lol just joking :)

But not anything with four legs. Hope Taffy isn't planning on going.

MM's average is 6.02, but all home riders ( except D/U riders ) get a 5% increase, when calculating which guests can cover for them, so this takes MM's average to 6.32, has Rory's average is only 6.22 he can cover for MM. Hope that makes sense.

Unnecessary rule, do away riders get a 5% reduction when calculating which guests can cover for them?

Agree. Should be a comfortable home win.

I just hope there is some passing and all the riders stay safe.

Of course there will be passing....you have a team of racers don't you.

It's no worse than Coventry has been in the last few years

Really lol? You must have missed last season, the play offs and this years challenge meeting.

Here's a clip from only a couple of weeks ago when Leicester visited as you must have missed it

One pass on a rider that was like a rolling roadblock you are very easily pleased!!!

I get to see passing most weeks as luckily have Harris in my team. That was just an easy example to find.

Are you saying Leicester has lots of passing then? That those at the ELRC were all wrong when said it was gate & go?

That's the point I was making that you can hardly compare the coventry & Leicester track

Yes, a good race I was there, there was only one other half decent race that night, against Wolves I'm struggling to recall any... in fact I've been attending Coventry since 1984 and have watched the decline in the standard of racing, particularly recently, over the years. Whether this is to do with bikes, riders or track prep I don't know, but Leicester is certainly no worse than Coventry. In fact I think that the racing at Leicester has improved recently, since they entered the EL with a better quality of rider racing the track and as riders have got used to it.
