SSL84 Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 It would be good if Glyn could come on here, and tell everyone what's been done to track? Then it may just stop all the One's who keep knocking it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stainlesssteelride Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Track should be good if Glyn has been involved. It will certainly help the lads that have mainly ridden on the smoother tracks in Poland for the last few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest is down to time to let it bed in.. Its really up to Glyn if he feels the need to explain what he's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riders probably ride harder/take more risks in Poland due the the money on offer. If Poole's track is sorted, it should be a good year to be a Poole fan.

I can believe that mate, riders will probably ride harder in poland due to the money on offer and the fact they dont want to be dropped. I think the track is sorted, and like i believe you said, having the start 10 mtrs back it will be a plus not a minus. Riders need to be secure in the fact the track is safe, that has never been an issue, just needed tinkering to iron out a few issues.

I agree. But you do have to take that with a pinch of salt. Riders go much faster on all the tracks in Poland and speed=increased injury risk. In Poland you hit high 70mph doubt you hit that anywhere in the UK even BV. So yes there are more injuries but perhaps is a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a slick track as practice,but if I remember right,bends was around 40mph and 65 on the straight and before BV's new track . Lynn was the fastest track in the Prem.
