Ahh what's his initial thoughts if you don't mind me asking?

Initial thought were good . It's a bit early to say really as he didn't have time to test any set ups etc before using it on Friday, it'll take a few meetings to get into the groove with it.

Freddie Lindgren rode them all last season in all leagues/world championships & is this season. Nick Porsing has them this year, massive fan of the engine, Said he used one in Poland Sunday & scored 11. Straight from the box & into a frame. He was asked about maintenance - said that a GM engine needs to be serviced after 25 races, the GTR once a season.

 

I believe that 15 riders have them in the UK this season.

Would be interesting to know who else is using the GTR over here in the Pwem

Back in my day the guy who was top of the division one averages would never ride in division two. But we were 'appy.

Won't give you much indication of how quick the engines are tho'. Judging by how he rode at Swindon, it might show how robust they are, judging by how many times he used to complete 4 laps. :rofl::rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Nick did just about ok last night at Berwick scoring 7+1 from 4 rides.

Today he is racing for them again at Scunthorpe who Stefan Nielsen now rides for.

Good that Stefan has a club now & still hope he'll be in our team if a chance comes.

 

Surprised Nick didn't wait for a chance in Poland or Sweden as his form merits it but understand after getting stitched up last season.

Agreed, no doubt Nick might ride abroad but under different circumstances to last year.
