IMBA - Boraston, England RESULTS
Pissed off
Bradford is the best in the eyes of the English and you try to look the others silly but this is not the way. Go on like this and we will see at the end of the year. Maybe Bradford will be champ again,maybe...
IMBA
We English do want an AMCA team to win this years championship,but we also know that there are many teams that have the speed and skill to win.
I say lets race fair and see at the end of the year who is the best team.

Simon Bradford I.M.B.A true sidecar champion.
Yes, ever since the very start for Britain in the I.M.B.A, we (the A.M.C.A) are the only organisation in the federation that are true amateurs. Our riders have no prize money in our home domestic meetings, unlike, I think, all of the other countries. For years A.M.C.A riders have contended with the Belgium, and Dutch riders with very large sponsorship's, and prize money to be had at their home domestic meetings. Belgium riders have dominated sidecar motocross in the I.M.B.A for so many years, because of these very big sponsorship deals in their countries, I just wonder if they would have had so many top teams if they had to contend with the A.M.C.A no prize money set up. In the very early days you couldn't even have a sponsor as a rider in the A.M.C.A. Bradford is a brilliant rider and he has the support of his father, who is also a brilliant mechanic. Their team is a complete family affair, with also Simon's mother being the back bone of their great team. Please leave him alone, he is by far the best sidecar racer we have ever had in the UK for over 30 odd years. Now it is our time to do the winning.

True Amateurs
Hello, I wasn't crying, but trying to explain to DIRK 11 the difference between true amateurs (the A.M.C.A) and all the other teams in the federation. In the early 70s when the Dutch crews stopped over for our Monday meeting, after the Sunday international, they could not understand it when they only had a plastic cup to show for a days racing. Ask Cock Bass one of your old I.M.B.A sidecar champions 1973!!!
Don't hide behind a nondeplume!!!

when you have a lot of money,a big mouth and no guts are you an amateur too??? even when you cannot drive a sidecar but you want to help an Englishman to become champion, you don't belong to an imba team. Play the game fair or stay at home and give you're money to war child. they use it.
You english talk like you are above everyone else. The only Englishman that has my sympathy is Stuart Brown. I was passenger at the gp's for a copple of years, but i learned to know him as a fair guy. All the others only think about themself...
