JON Armstrong believes the best is yet to come from him as he hopes to fire the Wildcats to Conference League glory.
The Mighty Midget' has so far chalked up 55 paid two points in five meetings for the Radipole Lane outfit, an average of 10.5, but is confident he can improve on those figures.
He said: "I've been fairly happy with my form so far but there is still more to come from me, I'm disappointed I've not had a maximum ride yet."
The Wildcats lost their opening league
fixture at the Scunthorpe Saints on Monday in controversial circumstances.
Armstrong added: "At Scunthorpe there was a point when we were 12 behind but once me and Brendan Johnson got the 8-1 it seemed to pick everyone up and it could have gone either way. But then some silly refereeing decisions went against us in the final heat."
Decisions that saw Jay Herne excluded following a fall on the first bend and Armstrong forced to ride off 15 metres for breaking the two-minute time allowance, despite not being made aware that the timer had been set.

Armstrong though, still believes Weymouth are in with a good shout of claiming silverware this year.
He said: "Without a doubt. There's other clubs who'll have the same targets as us but we're strong enough. If we can stay injury free and get everyone clicking we should be in with a good chance.
"Losing at Scunthorpe could be costly but we won't know just yet. It would have been nice to win but it wasn't to be, there is an element of luck involved in the sport and everyone knows that."
The grade 11 rider and his team-mates face their second league meeting of the new campaign at home to the Sittingbourne Crusaders on Saturday night (7.15pm).
And Armstrong has been impressed with the efforts of those around him.
He added: "Tim Webster is going really well, I just hope he can stay on this roll because he's bursting with confidence.
"Brendan Johnson has also impressed me. He found it hard to start with but I told him not to let it beat him up. Since then he's been scoring well so hopefully things are falling into place for him."
