Trees Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Just now, Mr X said: Idiot. This was AFTER THE MEETING. The crowd had dispersed and the track was being graded as they always do after the meeting at Poole. Now clear off with your propaganda along with Lambert. You don’t get it do you?? Your club is putting waste oil on your track for track prep, oops!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the evil and cunning Matt Ford, master manipulator and bender of rules, wanted to pour oil on the track I reckon he might have done it a little more slyly. Like not in front of an audience or a rival team he just whooped by 32 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurntFaceMan Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Also strictly speaking, pouring oil onto the track isn't against the rules. It's discouraged, but not against the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted August 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Kings Lynn were completely mauled. Big crowd, great atmosphere, great racing on a superb race track, and oppo fans have no answer, except for some accidentally spilled oil after the meeting. I have said all along, the Poole track produces top notch racing when it is prepared well. Now it is back in top order it isdoing exactly that. Only the NSS is a better track for racing. Some fantastic entertainment tonight. Made even better by pure sour grapes coming from east anglia. Love it. Happy days!

BurntFaceMan Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 The SCB has two major objectives in developing this Environmental Code by a) encouraging Promotions to manage in a way that is sustainable for the environment and b) allowing Promotions to demonstrate to Local and National Governments that it is a responsible Member of the community, with the ability and willingness to contribute to the protection of critical aspects of the environment. This Code seeks to improve the relationship between Speedway and the community by paying particular attention to a) noise, fuel, protection of the ground, waste disposal and cleaning and b) the behaviour of all persons involved (directly or indirectly) e.g. spectators, promoters, riders, track managers etc. 7.1 SCB appointed Environmental Audit Officials may inspect and report on a Promotions adherence to this Code. S/he shall have access to all information. 7.2 Track Environmental Marshals shall make recommendations in respect of improving the environmental conditions by riders, Officials and spectators. 7.4 Fuel and oil must be handled in the correct manner, particularly in a way that avoids spillage So, accident or otherwise, it's not actually against the rules to pour oil onto the track. It is however a rule that riders use an oil catcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 11 minutes ago, Daniel Smith said: So, Lambert's tweet is accurate. Surely he deserves an apology from the Poole fans. He's right, it's a disgrace and illegal to contaminate any grounds with oil. His comments are clearly not about the racing on the track but rider's having to use oil catchers. That is old engine oil. If that was a leak from the engine it would be in a line, not scattered like that. The tractor has ridden over the oil as can be seen by the tyre track in oil. If I saw oil hissing out like that i'd stop asap, not keep going.. That amount of oil loss would have caused the engine to grenade. Theres at least as much, if not more oil there than the tractor holds.It's not hydraulic oil either. Wrong colour. It wasn't there during the meeting but deffo looks like it was put down on purpose to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted August 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 All this crap deflecting from the result. What a win! So easy and so classy! Completely destroyed Kings Lynn. Hope Lynn make the playoffs, so we can do it again. Ruthless Lambert? More like roofless Lambert! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur54 Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 I think the rest of the league are running scared, Poole are on the march, we will beat any team over 2 legs, and all this crap about oil on the track, apparently the tracker broke down after the meeting, lots of sour grapes around tonight, chop chop chop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
