M.D Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 The usual suspects going well and I'm biased with Ablitt and Hagon but Ashton Boughen looks a very good prospect for a 15 year old.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, no, for sure, Gilkes is impressive, he's just on BSN now saying he's never ridden Glasgow before for sure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 Yeah, no, for sure... there's been some great Speedway racing from heat 1 through to heat 20 today for sure... Why though in these events when the riders are allowed a new tyre does it take an eternity to fit them? All momentum is lost from the meeting for the sake of 2 races, just when the tension should be building... it's all lost. Why can't they have these tyres ready to use?

kevin bass Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 So Kemp made it instead of Flint because he had a race win even tho Flint beat Kemp in the heats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) What a final! Yeah, no, for sure! I thought Dan T had that in the bag, he just rode too conservative though, still a rostrum ain't bad and a good 2 fingers up to everybody that's dropped him this year!

You think they would all have spare rear wheels with new tyres fitted just in case, wouldn’t you ! Get real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tyre has to be authorised by the ref, then issued, then fitted preferably without nipping the tube, then inflated, then balanced, then fitted to the bike and chain aligned before final adjustment, in the pit bay with everyone waiting….clearly you have never fitted a speedway tyre. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
