The club have already stated that they will bring everyone up to date when they "are allowed to do so", which I presume means that someone, somewhere has put a block on them saying what the actual situation is.

Poland (according to BSPL Website Preview)

Yes. Says so in the Press Release.

Can someone explain how the ACU Flat Track Championship Rounds were run at the track this weekend, if the track owners/company has been "dissolved" ??

Don Lindbergh.... Ian Thomas had him at Newcastle in 1977 too.

If it is financial (I'm NOT saying it is) then surely it's best for BSPL/Workington Speedway to come out and say it, then people might be able to help financially to clear the problems?? Once again speedway doesn't help itself with all this "cloak and daggers" type of announcements. Whatever the problem(s?) is/are, I hope it can be sorted and I will still get my visit to Northside in the future.

That would be an NDL 2.00 rider, then. Unless they've changed the rules, if you sack a rider you can't use guests of similar ability (unless the sacked rider is also a 2.00 rider in the NDL of course!), you can only do that if the rider is "withholding his services".

Eh???

Desperation?

Which, for many, could be classed as worse!

Taken off Facebook: Vuolas Racing RESULT | Today in Zarnovica the meeting got off to a rough start. In the third heat, I went down in the first corner and another rider landed on top of me. I hurt my ankle — but it looks like nothing’s broken.

Explanation from Team Manager Gavin Parr on Redcar's Facebook page: We tried everything and everybody today to get a guest after Erik informed us this morning that due to his Landshut meeting being called off he was now required at GP qualifying practise along with Jake. No flights from anywhere on Sunday morning could get him to the event on time unfortunately so we have been left in a very difficult position. Personally I can only apologise and promise you all we will still do everything possible to come away with the league points.

OFF. Waterlogged track (called off at start time - 7pm)

It is what it is, unfortunately, but I would suggest that whoever complied the fixture for today, when it was possible riders would be riding abroad, are partly responsible. However, they couldn't also see the riders getting injured (obviously), so a "double whammy". But, with all the blank dates in the calendar, you would think common sense would prevail and they would postpone it until later, but as you are probably well aware, common sense and speedway rarely goes together!!
