Triple.H. Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited)  I think they will go with guests in the short term but are looking at signing a new rider, one was mentioned last week but there seemed to be more questions than answers. Are you signing Johnny Nash Edit I'll get me race jacket Edited June 7, 2016 by Triple.H. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mythman666 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Well the rumours of us signing Lewis Kerr turned out to be false as he has just signed for Scunthorpe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
To The Point Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 DEBATE. Berwick away matches Redcar,close meeting Berwick riders gating well Edinburgh, beat them Berwick riders gating well Newcastle & Sheffield away, they beat us but comments said Berwick riders were quick out of the trap Glasgow, nearly had them quick out of the gate Scunny beat them , quick out of the gate Rye House drew, quick out of the gate. Â A Home. Â Most meetings poor out of the gate. Â Question What are these away tracks giving our riders with track preperation, that our track prep is not. ?

Its a difficult one to fathom out.For what it is worth my opinion is at Berwick it is a fairly narrow entrance to the first corners from the start of a race with all 4 riders and unless you get a flyer ( which usually brought back)you sometimes can't keep the throttle on if others riders are along side you like you can do at a lot of others tracks where the bend opens out more on the entrance which makes a good gate an advantage ..There are a lot of 1st bend incidents at Berwick.Imo.So I reckon it is the track shape.

sparkafag Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 There’s a pretty obvious reason why Berwick have beaten sides like Scunthorpe and Redcar and drew with Rye House but haven’t beaten Sheffield and Newcastle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mythman666 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 The strange thing is that of you look at results over the years....our worst away performances have generally been at Armadale and Rye House. Yet we manage a win and a draw there in a season where for one reason or another we can't seem to get all the guys firing on the same night at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinh88 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Team is one signing away from being a tough side to beat at home. Â Doolan Jorgenson and pijper good engine room riders. Just need a guy to pull us through the end of the meeting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I would agree with you in so far as over taking is concerned, but the shape of the track shouldn't stop any of our riders from making good starts on a regular bases. Time and again this season they are beating into the first corner, maybe its the way we are preparing the starts and not giving our riders what they are looking for.

Interesting, but the track was the same shape now as it was in the Waite days, this problem in general did not exist then to the degree that it does now. You would get a rider like Pepe who would trap from gate 4 and go against the fence cutting back on bend 2, you probably could not do that now, hence more riders sticking to the inside line on bend 1 causing more incidents.

So what did we get right for the FIM under 21s, that we are not doing on a regular basis for our riders, and what has to be done to help our riders to the success that they are obviously capable of.

smod Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 . Just need a guy to pull us through the end of the meeting. Â Jorgensen won Heats 13 & 15 at Scunthorpe for you, would have won 13 (but for chain coming off) and did win Heat 15 at Rye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree regarding the outside of the bends in the early heats they appear to be a "no go" area they look very heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) Oh dear, we can all but hope that we get someone signed in time  Sure the club are doing all they can to address the No1 situation, but losing over a point come Friday on team averages will hopefully concentrate minds get things pushed through.
