nw42 Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Thanks R & R, appreciate the heads up re the Eurosport2 reruns, just had my first fix of the year, the Landshutt meeting, not the best of them but enough to whet the appetite, roll on Saturday.

Mike.Butler Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 It's PrZemysław not Premysław. Przemysław in short is PRZEMEK. Przemek is pronounced Shemek I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Sorry but although its speedway who gives a damn? Do the powers that be actually think we are going to cheer on Boll. Whoever they are. Meaningless fixture which is no more than a practice for the riders. If the teams were countries it would be far better.

Meaningless fixture which is no more than a practice for the riders. If the teams were countries it would be far better. Well as far as the 'teams' are concerned I doubt anyone gives a toss but the meetings can still deliver good racing and there are some decent riders on show. I assume the only way they can put it on at all is through the sponsors money, for that they will have to sell the team names. As you said, it's speedway, that will do for me thanks, I mean if I only watched speedway on tv that I felt partisan about I would not see much at all. I think I'll adopt a team for the coming season. Come on City!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realy don't understand these comments all the time about this competition.

Just read from Sweden that a week ago there was an actual chance that the meeting would not go ahead because of APD problems.

Zielona Gora have lent them theirs for Saturday- I believe it`s the "cushioning " down the straight new rule which is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK. Just a thought, but since this isn't a FIM or FIM Europe meeting, then PZM rules apply since it's ridden at Torun. What ever they say about the fences, dont know.

The Extraleague tracks have brought in the rule as well I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f-s-p Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 What is the new rule for 2017 ?? The Extraleague tracks have brought in the rule as well I believe. When FIM introduced the new rule a year ago, it was A+ APD panels that are bigger than the previous ones and the starts of the straights need to have fences that absorb kinetic energy for the first 20 meters. This can be done with the fence structure or with added padding on the inside. Been watching the pic's from Wroclaw and I guess they will go with the added padding.

BFMDan Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Just saw this topic come up on my Facebook feed - LOL. I'm interested in watching the live stream over here in "The Colonies". Anyone know if the commentators will be English language . . . or will I be lost via all of the back-to-back consonants?!
