Belle Vue v King's Lynn 26/08/19


Recommended Posts

Track very grippy, track record broken, racing quite processional. Am sure it will improve though. 

Lynn need to gate better, Aces heat leaders having it too easy at the moment.

Most speedway races are, and always have been.

In 90% of cases I'd agree but this is the NSS we are talking about. Very unusual. Normally non starts provide the best racing but its frankly been awful. 

It's probably riding to quick.

Could tell before the meeting there was a very grippy strip in middle of track, get back wheel on that and your gone. Thought it might have slickened out by now but constant watering to keep dust down keeping it grippy.

Heat 10 was a decent race finally.

Very, very flat performance by Lynn. Awful from the gate and not quick enough on track. Lambert obviously not fit and riding within himself. 

Not good enough unfortunately. Racing poor too making it a depressing afternoon :D catching up with one or two old friends at least so not all bad.

This result will almost put Lynn away from the play offs now

Ipswich now need to get something from the home meeting against Poole as i can see both Belle Vue and Wolves getting past the 39 points we currently have

Swindon will go top of the league tonight

MPT, Riss, Kerr and TJ have all been going well at Lynn, and looking fast.. Compared to last season, Lynn's away for has been dire. I think they were last seasons top away points scorers, with around 13 away points..

The fat lady ain't singing just yet, but shes clearing hear throat :unsure:

Worst meeting I've ever seen at the NSS, absolutely dreadful.

For whatever reason its riding extremely quickly despite it being so dry.

And kings Lynn look like they cant be arsed

It’s not dry, they been constantly watering and spiking, Kings Lynn should be right at home on this grippy track.

They water it every bank holiday when it's hot like this.

It's not bone dry, but there definitely isn't the same amount of moisture as a night match, naturally in this heat.

No dust at all but it's still riding really quick and is very grippy.

Miracle how they done that in such hot weather.

It’s all about preparation how much it was watered from early this morning

Craig Cook just been an idiot again, track staff were repairing damaged fence by starting gate plenty of people on track, Cook rode round to the starting gate even though referee put red lights on. Clerk of course walked up to him and told him he had to leave and he didn’t, so clerk of the course pulled his cut out.

Completely different type of muck unfortunately. 

Bit of pride restored in heat 13 which illustrates how hard it is to pass but it’s been a pretty awful performance.

The clue was in the word 'MOST' brum, maybe you missed that. 

It’s funny that because reading social media of fans up and down the country describing racing at many tracks as being a ‘good meeting’ you would think racing at MOST tracks have decent racing.

Obviously it’s subjective what 2 people consider a good meeting even of the same meeting. I’ve read some tripe over the years as some Aces fans slating a meeting at Monmore when there was passes galore.

Id even go as far to say that MOST fans consider racing at their local track decent. Obviously that’s very debatable if that counts as true for all of course.

Hopefully that clarifies my position further.
