SCB Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 I assume as Chris is off grasstracking rather than doing his paid job for Peterborough he's going to get a ban? Nothing in the rules allowed for a rider to go grasstracking under any circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Could it be that it is an ACU event and Harris accepted the booking before signing for Peterboro? Plus it's no doubt covered by the "best interests of the sport" clause 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted September 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Nothing in the rules allow for "ACU events". Sounds like he's not actually ridden in the grasstrack meeting. Can only assume he's been reminded which sport pays his bills and that he has to get himself to Peterborough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New era Panthers Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 how much of a wedge did ged get ? Not as much of a wedge as it would take to fill your big gob. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) So is harris now racing for the panthers today? Nothing in the rules allow for "ACU events". Sounds like he's not actually ridden in the grasstrack meeting. Can only assume he's been reminded which sport pays his bills and that he has to get himself to Peterborough. The declared line up for has already been announced so he can't race for the panthers now??????? More strange goings on involving the panthers, how strange.

SCB Posted September 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Harris was grasstracking. He crashed out in practice. So how have Peterborough got a facility? And I assume Harris will be banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityrebel Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Harris had a fall in his first ride and retired in his next two. The track was very tricky today due to rain on the previous couple of days. The masters was won by James shanes, with Paul hurry second and Eddie Kennett third.

NeilWatson Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 A facility has clearly been agreed for Chris' absence so there's no question of a ban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagutaRacingFan Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Harris is a British hero, he doesn't deserve a ban. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What puzzles most is why a facility has been granted when he is riding in a non championship grasstrack invitational meeting.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What puzzles most is why a facility has been granted when he is riding in a non championship grasstrack invitational meeting.... SCB clearly disputes it or there wouldn't be this meaningless thread. It was stated at today's meeting that Chris was instructed to attend the Masters in preference to the league meeting.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 It would be interesting to know where and who that instruction came from Neil and what position in speedway they hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed part of the interview but the implication was that it was the ACU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
