Ray Stadia Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I went on the website. Nice gear, but nice prices too. I don't know how the sport can support these costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 A mat in a sale,, 46 quid, normally 58,,,,,you would have to be bonkers to spend that sort of money on a mat. What's the betting a load of riders do,,, the ones who probably saying they don't make any money from speedway. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f-s-p Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Dont know what your on about but they are supposed to be enviroenmental mats that absorb the possible oil spill, not ugly looking living room ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I think it is important to use environmental friendly mats. Maybe from coconut fibres from B & Q or the Garden Center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe from coconut fibres from B & Q or the Garden Center U mean the ones that dont absorb anything... I think it’s a good idea, the mats. But in reality we’ve had discussions on do they actually mean rubbish. Especially in other disciplines riders travel with motorhomes to meetings that spill more oil during the weekend than their bikes use. No one cares. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as we were concerned, it was to keep the dirt off the bike and tools! MDL riders didn't get to go in the pits ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are asking what I'm on about, you must be fairly young. Before oil catchers and the recycling oil systems in modern speedway engines, the spent oil used to drip out the bottom of the engine. To be honest, I was never too sure what the issue was about changing the rules to catch the oil, especially if the rider was using castor oil, as the oil is a vegetable based oil and is not as toxic as mineral based oils.
