The bikes were slower, if a heat is two seconds slower that is two more seconds that gives a passing opportunity 10 hours ago, bruno said: I think winning makes us see meetings different. I enjoyed heat 1 then was a bit bored upto the last 5/6 heats . Heat 1 was OK, Fricke chasing the Wolves duo, heat 2 was better with Brennan battling the Wolves duo. Heat 4 saw Brennan pass Morris on the run in to the line. Fricke passing Morris in heat 6 was a great move. Next time you visit you could ask Zagar to be slower out the tapes if you want?

I was actually hoping he would , lol. Tbh I think I was a little disappointed with the racing because it's been much better on previous visits, I think I was expecting to much. Looking back not a bad meeting and as I said the good heats were very good. If we had won I'm sure I'd have thought the racing was much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
