Many years ago when Phil Cain was doing the track he would be out all night before a meeting getting water into the base of the track with a hosepipe

Plus they tried a few gp's in Aussie but eventually that was axed also, could have done with trying to get one in the USA when Hancock was either champ/near the top but that never happened guessing again due to costs of getting all the equipment over to California.

Yes maybe lack of experience too. Probably should have put Will in heat 14.

Most accurate thing you have ever said 💦

people say get rid of paco but bring in who ?

So R/R for cook it is. Pick of the bunch when it comes to guests and they can’t get anyone? Almost like they’re expecting the gate to be down with other sporting events on today so doing it on the cheap. Was feeling confident midweek of a decent win but now not so much. Pijper at reserve just strengthens Scunthorpe. Big meeting needed from the comets top 4 and it’s time for Niklas to step up and show he can do what he done midweek in Denmark over here.

So its R/R for cook. Which hands the meeting to the scorpions imo. surley we could of got a decent guest.

It’s R/R for Cook, the rest unchanged. Jeppesen is riding and can take a R/R ride

Fair enough I haven’t looked that much into it tbh.

The new update service has all that info too with detailed comments on each heat. It isn’t just a result service. Don’t know why it wasn’t done about 10 years ago

Friend of ours did exactly that a few years ago and the police warned him about harassment!

Which is a shame. You won’t have a clue what went on in the races and updates really paint a picture when you get the right texters.

No the issue is there is NO water in the base. Superficial watering is no good.

The line-ups logged with SCB were posted on Wednesday morning, and both teams will obviously have changes. Speedway Updates will shortly be history, as the new BSP update facility is lightning quick.

Ace Pijper is riding instead of Gilkes

No teams on speedway updates yet either

just watched the meeting enjoyed it , love the honesty from ace pijper and Jake Mulford in their interviews, and before ht 14 didn't think Redcar were going to win it, sorry for Dan gilks , hope he can come back from it , but it will be difficult, more mentally than anything else.

GROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

Was a sh*t meeting that.

You got to get by the gypo’s first

I was just remembering that too - didn't one of the track staff at Derwent Park take the wrong tanker from where it was stored and spray the track with slurry instead of water without realising?

Unexpected win last night. Came down to Rushen struggling with the tighter turns of Armadale where he can’t just twist the throttle and Mitch Cluff putting in a superb performance last night. He’s improved massively round the dale to the guy who couldn’t turn round the place first few weeks, fair play to him.

So Bowes may have got 2 last night which would not have been much different to Tate but we would have expected more from Zischke given he got 9 last time. Harris got 13 the last time he was at Edinburgh and Dan T got 11, so he outscored Dan T on his own track, maybe last night the track didn't suit Harris, no idea why he gets 13 one month and 6 the next.

As a SPEEDWAY fan I thought this was a very good meeting on a surprisingly good race track….well done the track curator. As a Bears fan ( sort of ) I’m astounded at how inconsistent the home riders are . A couple of impressive race wins from Edwards and Mulford added to two poor rides, Allen started well, finished poorly, same with Pijper. Lambert was trying hard and deserved a bit more than his 5 points , same with Scott but the whole team were consistently outgated or outpaced down the back straight by a battling Scorpions side who deserved their win. Decent crowd and only a little dust coupled with loads of kids an ice cream van and no freeloaders from the moto x track this week.😄
