Rye House 2017


Recommended Posts

3 new signings could play into your hands, as none of the riders mentioned are overly familiar with the OTA. Only Lewis Kerr has ridden here so far this season.

 

Not to mention Schlein being a massive improvement on Ricky Wells :rolleyes:

 

All in reasonably good form in the Championship however. Lawson is on a par with Tungate at least, the same goes for Kerr and Starke, while Heeps is a big improvement on Graversen.

 

The changes make you stronger without a doubt.

Absolutely it does in the long term - but catching us on the first meeting might not be a bad thing.

Following numerous alterations it's now regarded as one of the easier tracks to ride.

The straights are quite narrow compared to say Belle Vue but the bends are far easier now to negotiate.

A couple of 14 year old juniors have recorded 62 seconds for 4 laps.

I noted Tonga's remarks about the Rye House track, "dusty and narrow". I thought that the new promotion had made big track improvements.

Is this not the case ? It's said that the adverse camber on the 1st bend has gone which I believe has been achieved by bringing in the air fence

to the top of the banking, so maybe that is what Tonga means by "narrow". Must make a visit soon and see for myself...

I wouldn't take any notice of what Tonga says

Does anyone else on here think that Rob Branford is not quite the same rider he was last season?

Not slaging him off, just asking who may feel the same?

No he is riding Premier and Championship now so much greater challenge for him as opposed to last season.

Rob Branford had a good spell last year. Some Rye fans spent all winter making out he was a lot more than he is. He's a decent enough 4ish point man who will have decent meetings now and again.

He is riding with a shoulder injury, hopefully the treatment he is receiving improves him quickly.

Beat a few handy guys tonight for his points, it's a long season.

Thanks for the reply, at least somebody understood what I was asking, rather than some stupid post.

I should think Rob, Ellis and Robbo are racing with various niggles of some kind.

Anyone who saw the state of Ellis after the meeting at Poole would find it remarkable he's back so quickly.

Not being rude Gustix but most people who are interested in Rye House will check the Rye House website regularly or the speedwaygb website where they will see pretty much every press release from every club on a daily basis.
