Bryn Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) RACEDAY WEATHER CHECK 8.15am - GOOD FRIDAY Can't believe I'm up out of my pit this early on Good Friday but there's a very good reason because it's raceday at Lakeside to and the Vortex Hammers looking to land one on those Norfolk Stars. And the good news is here near Dartford (just the Kent side of the crossing) there's clear blue skies and a big orange ball up in the sky so today's meeting is most definitely ON and a reminder that it's a 1pm start. The hour-by-hour forecast indicates there will be NO rain today now the overnight stuff has moved away, temperatures will reach 13c by 1pm (I'd still pack a jumper in your bag!) so wherever you intend to travel from, COME ON DOWN! Next update circa 10.15am before we leave for the track and then direct from the speedway office there.

Star Fever Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) As expected, garbage Agreed - we got to get used to this sort of performance this season methinks....... Woudn'tbe surprised if we sruggle at home tonight for that matter - Lakeside are nowhere near as bad as some think Edited March 25, 2016 by Star Fever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiseguy Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Just got back, must say Swiderski, Lawson, Neilson and Mear all looking really good for Lakeside today, god knows what happened with Rory and Robert Lambert, they are usually decent round lakeside, was impressed with Korneilison and NKI as always Win by 20, probably lose by a similar score tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickRushbrook Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Nilsson was very impressive. Chased and PASSED NKI. Only one performance at home so without wanting to get carried away, looked a number 1 in the making. AJ will have better meetings whilst the two Lewis' will continue to improve so looking good for the Hammers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Lakeside built for home fortress so no surprise on the result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Solid performance, Nilsson was superb but always is at the raceway. It was good to see Mear perform so well after a long time away. The track didn't suit AJ or Bridger with nothing on the outside, that's the only problem with the early meetings when the suns out. Kerr seemed a bit all over the place but will improve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E I Addio Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) Kings Lynn nor as bad as some of their pessimistic fans are saying. The weak links were Robert Lambert and surprisingly Rory who usually goes so well at Lakeside. The scoreline looks bad but, apart from the aforementioned heat leaders I some of the lesser lights were really prepared to get stuck in and have a go so I think the Stars have potential. In particular I was impressed by Lewis Rose who was pretty good from the gate and pretty fearless and overall rode well considering he is not particularly familiar with the track. Huckenback also did well considering had has never seen the place before. On the pace most of the time. Mads was probably the best I have seen him ride at Lakeside. Pity it unravelled for him a bit in heat 15 but he did well for a second string without much heatleader support. Neils was pure class. No other way to describe it. For Lakeside, good performances from Lawson and Nilsson, especially Kim coming from the back to beat the seemingly invincible Iverson, and Rob Mear seemed like he had never been away. He managed a couple of cut backs that were straight out of the Peter Karlsson text book . Swiderski didn't put a wheel wrong. The two Lewis from Team Revolution were both trying a big to hard and getting into a tangle at times but once they settle down they will be fine So comiserations to the Stars who were better than the scoreline, and a solid start for the Hammers.

TonyE Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 I was impressed with Kim, Richard and Robert in particular. Lakeside fans always knew Piotr was way better than the silly sub 4 average he came in on. Given time I believe the two Lewis's will come good. For AJ, it was a bit of an off-day but we all know what he can do. For Lynn, a couple of surprisingly poor performances and I thought Lambert should have been excluded way before he eventually was. I thought Kai did OK for his first visit to Arena. NKI looked class as always but seemed to have no answer when Kim passed him. I didn't think Lewis Rose would have been eligible for Heat 15 but what do I know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
