Aces51 Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Think this will be 3 points for the Aces and none for Wolves. Steve Worrall still not fully match fit, which probably cost us at least a point at Monmore but will improve with every meeting and should score more tonight than he did on Monday. Looking forward to some good racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCOGNITO Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Aces should rip Wolves apart in this one. At Monmore only Cook, Fricke and Bewley put up a fight but around here they can hit 50 without breaking sweat while Wolves will need their top three to hit at least 30 between them just to keep it respectable as Morris, Howarth, Heaps and Graves will do well to get -5 between them. Aces win by 14 and about 11 heat winners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfsbane Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Yet again not difficult to spot where our problem lies. Action to address it there was none. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 great meeting with good fast racing, Wolves seemed to fold after the interval, on the plus side a very decent crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 The usual standard defeat at the NSS. Worse than usual however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces51 Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) Great racing, more passing in virtually every race than in the whole of the Swindon meeting last week. No dust, despite the continuing heatwave. Wolves looked as if they might do better than expected and then went absent in the latter stages.

Whilst agreeing Monday's are not good for Belle Vue, in this particular case I'd suggest more to do with Summer Holidays have started.

Not totally correct. I won't go Mondays but went last night. Usually high quality NSS stuff, the final score perhaps not reflecting the course of the meeting. Fricke never really looked like getting beaten, Bewley pulled off his usual racing moves (he was the inside of bend 4 worked out totally) but the MOM for me was Tungate. Little concerned about Cook, he simply didn't seem to have the speed. Few moments from Masters and Schlein and a shout for Greaves, some big effort there. Only one complaint : why have an interval when the overwhelming majority of speedway fans complain about unnecessary delay and especially when the start was delayed and there were a number of long track grading breaks ?

Wolfsbane Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 I don't know whether there's anything in it but for the umpteenth time Masters on the OS puts our inability to handle the NSS when it slicks off down to Belle Vue's 'little fellas'. Is he right or just a whingeing Aussie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably right, anyone who puts another 10-20kg on his bike must be at a disadvantage but you also need to know the best lines to generate speed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent meeting with some great racing. Late start due to exchanging tickets (only at main Ticket Office) and late arrival of Ambulance (can't be helped). What gets me is that there is no consideration whatsoever for those people who arrive on time for a 7:30 start - not just this meeting, but in general. People may have arrangements in place (trains to catch, etc.) for after the meeting, yet these seem discounted in favour of a needless interval. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
