Got 16 from 6 rides and 14+2 from 7 rides on his two visits last season. He wouldnโt come cheap though and Iโd guess Oxford would be favourites for his signature. Ben Cook would also be a decent option. Side would be 39.96 with his inclusion instead of Janowski. But his average comes from riding in the middle order, not at 1 or 5. Heโd start as our No 1 which is a step up. But I do wonder if Ben might end up at Birmingham with his brother. But with either in the team (and Lawson), it should be a match for anyone at home, especially considering we saw off Sheffield, Belle Vue (albeit without Kurtz) and Leicester reasonably comfortably with a much weaker side than that. But if we donโt get Lawson and either one of Magic or Cook, that could make things tricky. ย This has to be the desired 1-7 in my opinion if we arenโt having a big hitterย 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris116 Posted October 20 Report Share Posted October 20 12 hours ago, SpeedwayFan91 said: Kings Lynn are moving home race nights to Mondays rather than Thursdays (thank god!), so that will help us a lot, wonโt lose riders to Poland if we have any that ride thereย The one problem with using Monday is that it will mean less time to work on the track after Stock Car meetings over the weekend. If too many teams go Monday as their regular day then there could be problems with fitting in fixtures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Buster is obviously happy with itโฆ certain teams canโt have Monday as their main race night though, Sheffield being one, theirs has to be Thursdayย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defo Ben Cook imo, I think you'll have Bomber as well now because their has to be bigger reason as to why Boughen has been selected as the RS when KL were in a favourable pick position.

Ipswich and Sheffield will still be mainly Thursdays. Lynn can move back to Mondays (and are doing)โฆ saves us losing more riders on Thursdays if that is the caseย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelvinht Posted October 21 Report Share Posted October 21 (edited) according to green sheets - Harris finished 2024 on 6.22 - with his 5% reduction that's 5.909 I think (not sure if that rounds to 5.91 or 5.90) - gives us a little more wiggle room if he is indeed our no. 6 Edited October 21 by kelvinht Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
