kelvinht Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 No GP wild card for Lambert, hopefully that means he'll do the UK next season, and that'll be good news for the Stars. A year out of GP's will help him rediscover his form of 2018 and push for GP's again in 2021..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame Lindback is back in as he has had too many chances and is same old Lindback really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Ward Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 I think that having no gp’s and no world under 21’s to think about next year will do Robert the world of good definitely thought that his work load was to much this year. Don’t know if he is likely to get a place in the sec but should be able to cope with that. An injury free year will also help him regain his 2018 form and we mustn’t forget he still is only 21 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubichair Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) Robert is a very talented rider but personally feel he’s 2-3 years away from being good enough for Grand Prix racing full time Edited October 9, 2019 by pubichair 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I like Lewis he is no good away. We need riders who can also ride the away tracks but unfortunately he does not cut the mustard away. And we had too many of them riders last year 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Lewis ride in his first ever meeting for Lynn Young Stars so I find it very hard not to include him in my team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 For such an accomplished and now fairly experienced rider who averages seven and a half in the Championship it was odd how few points Lewis scores for Lynn on the road this year, he should have been our trump card once he dropped to reserve. Just didn’t happen for him unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 1. Lambert 7.81 2. Jorgenson 5.90 3. Riss 6.61 4. MPT 6.30 5. Cook 7.78 6. Proctor 4.30 7. Stefan Nielsen 3.81 42.51, presume reductions for Lambert? Can't see many changes as the team was very good when all clicking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thanks The Stars won nothing away from home this season.

For me, Jørgensen & MPT havn't done enough and will be very weak No2 & No4's. 1. Lambert 7.81 2. 6.00 3. Riss 6.61 4. 6.00 5. Cook 7.78 6. Proctor 4.30 7. Nicol 4.00 42.5 I'd say that's where we need to be, 2 fresh faces in the middle order with away meetings in mind would be very solid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace Riss with NKI,and Harris and Nicholls in the 2 and 4 positions and i think you have a decent team on the road. I love Riss and his style on a bike.But i've watched him closely over the last few weeks of the season and i think probably a 6.6 average is as far as he can go.He seems to ride mid track 90% of the time and when behind he doesn't try different lines to overtake.He isn't the quickest neither if you look at his times.Even for Redcar his times are often slower than other winning races.So i wouldn't hesitate at bringing NKI back in for Riss.

kelvinht Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Riss had an off at kings lynn, can't remember which match, but after that was never quite as quick, put it down to not having another bike that was as quick. MPT and Riss should be shoe ins for me as they did hold their own on the road. Problems were 2 misfiring heat leaders and tj, lewi and what other reserve we could muster bring pants on the road 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Riss and MPT have to be retained, were two bright spots in a pretty awful season. The team you have suggested has plenty of experience but has too many riders past their best and whose careers are only going one way.....Proctor, Nicholls and Harris certainly are and I’d suggest Puk won’t ever be the rider he once was for Lynn. I’d personally prefer to see some new younger blood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed Erik in my team. I think he can put something on his average. I agree , coming out of bend 4, he looks the dogs. However I can see where you are coming from to a degree. Re: Not the quickest... It might be just me, but as good as he looks, I think he might be scrubbing a little speed off the way he turns the bike. Maybe be a bit to hard? It looks great, but is it the fastest way round?. He is no light weight either. Not fat but deffo likes the weights. Muscle is heavy. I'd be happy with him back, and wouldn't of mentioned it if it wasn't brought up Edited October 14, 2019 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Perhaps Erik feels he needs those muscles Bald Bloke - to be able to hang on at Compost Corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
