crumpiefan Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 8 minutes ago, chun said: that crump incident was something else. He must have been catapulted about 10 feet high! Did he clip the kerb? i wasn't all that impressed being exiled out onto the 4th turn but that's where most of the action was. I got hit by some wayward shale when Douglas shed that chain as well! Pass of the night was Luke Becker on Danny King in Heat 6. That kid looks a real prospect. I didn't think he clipped the kerb tbh but it was reported he did, maybe my eyes deceived me. Rarely do you see that type of crash though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to this report from Ritchie he did hit the kerb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chun Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) I assumed he must have for the bike to reach that violently although I didn't see the exact moment as I was focussing on the Wolves pair closing in behind Edited June 1, 2021 by chun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows the respect these boys have for him, but also the genuine concern for his welfare. The applause was almost an outpouring of relief as that could have ended up so much worse.

Admittedly Wolves had their gating gloves on but even on the rare occasions Ipswich got out first they got passed almost every time. Yes indeed and the Wolves riders used ‘Karlsson’s corridor’ off turn two to good effect all evening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only every away rider turning up at Monmore had some knowledge of 'Karlsson's corridor'.... They've done really well to keep it such a secret during all these years haven't they? Even the many who have guested for Wolves at Monmore over the years obviously haven't been told about it... And every live TV match from Monmore must not have been watched by any Speedway riders who have ridden there after it was broadcast... Whisper it.... "They will go in to the first two turns around mid track and then, cut the apex of the second bend, as close to the kerb as is possible, and pass under you, don't ride the inside line apex on turn one as you will drift wide coming out of turn two and get passed, time, and time, and time again".....

Absolutely Mike - myself and my mate watching last night concluded that it may be the case that only Wolves riders are allowed to use the track in that way! Scott Nicholls was one exception of an away rider who we came up with who seemed to know about it! Keep it to yourself though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Nicholls was one exception of an away rider who we came up with who seemed to know about it! Keep it to yourself though! Truly amazing isn't it? Even ex Wolves riders who go there seem to not remember about it... I have racked my brains over the years to make sense of it and work out why.... And the only plausible and common sense explanation I have is that Peter Adams and CVS are actually "The Men In Black".... And before each meeting they say hello to the opposition, pull out their "light thingies" and "zap!" every rider from their opponents who instantly forget about 'Karlsson's corridor'... My tip to any riders going to Monmore this year is if you see the Wolves team, Peter and CVS, all wearing sunglasses, then get yours on pretty damn quick.. !

bruno Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Thought Crumpy's chain snapped, sure I saw sparks and the back wheel seemed to be locked up when they pushed it off track.Hope he recovers quick but I have to question why he's come back at 45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 One thing from last night was the 2 minute countdown clock making an appearance. Is this compulsory now. Not that anyone took notice of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
