wtf Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 14 hours ago, The Dog said: This sounds like their admitting that theirs an issue with the Peterborough track without actually saying it... Or saying that there's a problem with the tyres without actually saying it... This is the problem I have with their statement. It implies the track is somehow at fault. The tyres are the problem, it just so happens that Peterborough highlights the problem more than elsewhere. How long before they need 2 tyres at Scunny? They were using 2 last year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Skid Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Now it's the weather's fault, never had any problems at the 4TT, which was in the middle of the day, just admit that the cheap tyres are rubbish, riders now have so much equipment forced on them, all of which is a very nice little earner for someone. As the old saying goes, buy cheap, buy twice, or in this case buy cheap, buy 14 times. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Will Kelvin have to have a 'tyre-ometer' to preview the next coverage at The Showground? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Skid Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 I think the Riders should refuse to race on them, the Showground is not the nicest track to crash at, but knowingly using a dodgy tyre is plain stupid, but unfortunately there aren't enough strong Riders to make it happen.

IainB Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 I caught up with the SGP3 last night and it reminded me of the sport I fell in love with in the late 70's... maybe 250's are the way to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 The BSPA have got the wrong compound Anlas tyre. These are not the ones used in FIM SGP events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
