The close score line in last night's meeting kept it interesting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reason for his moaning is that he is still recovering from injury and when he hits a bump it hurts. How is it Lambert can overtake at Kings Lynn but Iversen can't when the track is to his liking. The reason the Belle Vue track is so good isn't just because it is smooth. Expand Well at least he rode it. Not pulling out, not letting his team or the fans down..Theres 2 very good riders I can think of who didn't give a chuff about anyone else !

Expand It's what you tend to get when people so want to be the first to come up with some news. Any half a sniff they hear from anywhere and off they go. Bit like trying to get a roller.

Expand A lot of money has been spent on the track and its much better than it was. Last night it was affected by the rain which was why some riders struggled especially early on.

Bald Bloke Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 I thought it was an ok meeting. Track wasn't great but you could see a little standing water in places so it had took a lot of rain, maybe overnight ? The crowd looked good to me. But will take SS's word that it wasn't that good. Nice not have to look at loads of empty seats in a grandstand on TV though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted August 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 The water on the track before heat one was because it had been watered with hoses before the meeting. They never watered it after 6.30 when the gates opened. Note there was no dust during the meeting and no watering either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Brady, he was visably upset with his performance in the pits, no rider wants to ride badly or run lasts especially at this stage, they are a lot better than that and we all know it. Im not going to temp fate here, but Somerset Poole would be nice... See what i did there .. Expand Real genuine question, why would you put them up, I presume you mean inflate them and they are in place? so that all the water runs over the track??

The days when we watched Speedway in the rain have long gone. The grandstand , without doubt, gives the best view in the house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
