    Probably the same as all the British lads the bank of mum and dad?

    In case you didn't know Pat has tried twice to cut it on the World stage and both times he's not managed it. Tommi was a champion way back when, you simply can't compare.
  3. Reset is as described, one slow through kick with throttle wide open. I went through a phase when I had mine of trying to start it once only then re set then it always started on the next kick.
  4. Maybe I got the new kid but it was hard work to get to
  5. tried carole nash they don't list the evo so think you have it insured as a rev 3? They are a broker for aviva anyway. quoted
  6. I said before and repeat that I was not that happy the way that my
  7. Imagine tiger and 5 of his buddies (playing partners) hitting it into 5 holes one way round a stadium then the other way would that have the wow factor?
  8. My point is he lost more than our two over the two sections to move to the smi. This happens all the time in Supercross and accepted by all. Last Chance is just what its called, if you can look at it objectively then it gets rid of two of the worst four riders, and sort of second chance for all four, a) to get through or to muff it. My point is it provides a bit of excitement along the way for spectators and the moans last year were all about boring and procession which these rules seem to be trying to address. I am not saying its wonderful, better than the tin can barbed wire and sliced bread, but there is reason in the change and for our lads dibs and wiggy it worked out well last night.
  9. The results do not show that fuji was beaten on observation in the last chance by dibs and Alexz.
  10. I really think everyone is jumping on the "bad rules" band wagon and the fact that fuji lost less in part one doesn't count in the next part, its just the way it is, to give a show and rather than sending home the two riders at the bottom allows a second chance to wiggy and dibs, for example. This keeps both the riders and more importantly the spectators on their toes. In round one fuji beat them both. Wiggy and Dibs beat fuji on observation in the decider as to who goes to the final 6. So I don't think you are looking at it in the round. It gives a mini final or rather a bit of drama which is what its all about surely. It isn't complicated except when its over explained.
  11. 4 seperate routes and most you can do a choice of one or two laps. When I first went 03 (?) the atmosphere was great and very relaxed, lots of foriengers from all over, but lately it seems to have lost its shine, too many brits? The weather for a few years seemed to have been poor aswell, and that certainley affected the last one I did. Always goes to the closest weekend to Bastille day July 14th i think. Easter there is a trial nearby 3 day La Chatre.
  12. I think we could be in danger of missing the point of the new rules and scoring. Would Dibs have got 3rd at sheffield under the old rules or wiggy 6th last night? Wiggy and Dibs both beat Fuji in the sections so observation caused fujis downfall not a race. For many years the indoors have had races in some shape or form. Bou won, Cabby won so the winners are the same it seems like the also rans are getting a chance and isn't that good for us?
  13. Think they are a good set of rules but how fair are the Fantics that use the much later and more powerful engines, is that right that two "winners" in last years normadale use these engines?
