Happens every year and will be drip fed as per usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 Anybody know where NL riders who have already competed stand with the new 2.00 averages? If a rider competed this season and stayed on 3.00 as they didn't achieve above do they get re-assessed to a 2.00, the average they actually achieved or stay a 3.00?

I'd guess actual average between 2 and 3 and assessed 2 below that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DEAN MACHINE Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 And so the doubling up begins, for me very few positives have come out of this years agm, it’s just carry on the same ,truly have had enough of british speedway, only went to around 10 meetings in Britain last season, think it will be less next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand why you'd create such a conversion rate, which increases year on year but allow rider's to maintain existing averages, it just doesn't make any sense at all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall one time at Belle Vue, stood on the terraces, about 2004 when this guy next to me asked when a Golden Double could be deployed in the match or something like that. I was stuck. Me, a fan of 30-odd years, couldn't keep track of what was going on with the continuous tinkerings at the AGMs. Reading the forums now about converting averages of certain riders, the same. You can just lose the will to keep up with things. The racing can be brilliant, but you have to keep track and have the appetite to keep up with the rules. If a rule is good in the first place, why change it? Edited December 1, 2018 by moxey63 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
