Great start to team building. 

Would like the team to look something like the following :

Scott Nicholls        8.35

NBJ                         7.46

Ricky Wells            7.05

Todd Kurtz             5.43

Justin Sedgman    5.20

Ben Morley             3.81

Drew Kemp             3.58

Would have liked to see Dan Gilkes in on a 2.00, but we need Ben at reserve. If Drew does not return, then Dan comes in, allowing an additional 1.70 for elsewhere. 

Len had NBJ at Rye House, and Wells is a gater who had a poor 2019 and should improve.

I've taken the green sheet averages from this weeks Star - do  Brits get a reduction still? 

Should be exciting times ahead at Central Park.

Forget Wells, everybody knows where he is heading;)

Wells Kurtz Sedgeman are the very types of riders I feared when stepping up. Much rather some young Brits 

Wells and sedgman are elsewhere

Wonder who the other heat leaders will be?

Would of liked Lawson....but he is back with Eagles.

I expect Drew and Ben will be in the team....and could be all British! :D

 

Little mention of Drew from the presentation night, normally Len likes to make a fuss of returning riders so Gilkes, Ledwith & Mulford all being kept sweet (for whichever level) but Kemp, Jenkins & Rowe largely ignored so unlikely to see them back in either side.

Personally i don't think so but ive been surprised before plus the Nicholls signing is quite a carrot for any rider who is willing to learn.

Agree that the Scotty signing, hopefully will encourage a rider to sign for Kent. :D

Danny would be in demand for any team,,entertainer who puts bums on seats,,,,,Alfie gives 100 per sent but is wild and an accident waiting to happen in my opinion,,which may not be shared by others...

So Drew is an Eagle....so cannot see any of this years NL team coming back then? As in not the Championship side.

Only outside shout is Gilkes but thats if he fancies the step up, if he doesn't want closer to home like Leicester or Brum etc the rest are either else where or not at the level yet. 

Don' know if Adam Ellis fancies Champs next season but would be a good signing, Bacon as mentioned else where also. basically any strong gaters would suit Kent which is why its often odd that Len builds teams of racers.

Wonder if Gilkes could be the No 8?

Love to see Ellis and Bacon on team....do not think either will though.

Alf Bowtell has been giving 100% for a couple of seasons now, and really hasn’t improved . Never mastered the tight Arlington track, and don’t see him making any impression at Central Park at Championship level.

You say that but he beat your heat leaders this season..http://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/thread/18786/thurrock-ch-06-05-2019

 

 

I tink the one youre also all overlooking king is wood being at Kent local boy and Morley. There’s the 2 reserves possibly?
