That’s one ride. And what about heats thirteen and fifteen? Ellis will probably cover for Niels quite well but by the sound of it any other available guests or R/R would certainly have not.

Overall it makes more logical sense to have Adam and Nick riding for the same club in both legs so, as all parties seem happy with this arrangement, I cannot see the problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a team , Ty, TJ,or Riss can take those rides they are all capable. Like Ellis they are all 6 pointers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should not fall upon Adam Ellis to uphold the credibility of the sport. it should be up to the teams/promoters. Poor guy just wants to put food on his table. Hope he scores a maximum tonight : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. These are the averages you go by Morris 6.91 Kurtz 6.75. Speedwaygp green sheet averages It's great that 1 rider is riding for each team, but Poole have a rider that was not/ is not legal in the second leg.. It fits the other way around... I'm guessing Fords toys started to launch out of his pram, so they bent the rules for him Edited October 8, 2018 by Bald Bloke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phew... Well done the BSPA... Could have been a tad embarrassing if they hadn't sorted it so well...

It clearly say's above and I quote 'We all agreed this cannot be allowed to happen' That's fine, it was a bit silly.. But they give Poole a rider who only fits for 1 leg, where the both fit if it was the other way around... Only in UK speedway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Bloke Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) Morris is 6.91.. Fits at Poole with the 5% home allowance, but to high at Lynn Edited October 8, 2018 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
