Ref now heading back to the pits for more tyre talk. Sweet Caroline playing over the PA to keep the crowd "entertained" In 45 years of attending Speedway I've never seen a tyre disintegrate, blow and hit the following rider... at least they're cheap Is it a blue groove track then?

Charlieboy Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Away win for tigers but don’t understand the tyre problem here at Peterborough I thought Sheffield was the only track to have problems on a race night. Shame the Ipswich and Belle Vue fans arnt here to sort it out with all there expertise and know how. If this tyre problem has been causing problems for 2 years as Carl Johnson suggests then the riders need to be refusing to ride until it’s sorted. Rider safety obviously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Presumably it's either a major fault with the manufacture of the tyres or something dangerous in the track surface/preparation? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No tyres available. Safety issue We could probably gone on and got maximum point so we’ve potentially lost a point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
