  1. Think scunny only have 2/3 home meetings left
  2. First meeting 14th June double header with Cradley then Scunthorpe 1.30 start
  3. Thought you could use spare bike tyre also unless it was a new tyre For all National League Competitions: New or used tyres (SR 10.24 type) may be used with the restriction being that a Rider may not use more than one (1) new tyre in any Meeting , whereas there is no restriction on the number of tyres or edges of used tyres.
  4. They are every Saturday between 11&:4 contact Geordie Karl Armstrong on face book he will keep you right
  5. Apart from the gating the stags lads are well on the pace and not just trailing around or half a lap behind they just need to get out the gate
  6. And the quickest time of the meeting was by Ryan Macdonald heat 2 once these boys start gating pretty sure the scores will start to get a bit closer
  7. Would really like Joey back. But if not I Think we have 4.22 left and the German rider helfer would fit in perfect
  8. Couldn't have put it better myself Richard and Ryan intends to take full advantage of these facility's and everything that comes along with riding for Scunthorpe
  9. RYAN MacDonald from Glasgow has become the second rider to be confirmed in the new Scunthorpe Stags National League team. The 19-year-old Scot impressed in the Northern Junior League last season with the most improved rider and is expected to start the campaign wearing the No.2 race-jacket. Chairman Richard Hollingsworth said: “Ryan is more than ready for the National League and has an excellent attitude to his racing. He has invested in decent equipment
  10. Nothing wrong with riding there scunny will have mostly riders like adam riding throughout the whole team
  11. Darcy ward would not need a visa as any GP rider does not need one
  12. Pretty sure the team that scunny puts out this year will be pretty good at home and with the facility's for rider training scunny have I am pretty sure they will be a lot better team next year with a years experience
  13. Another motocross rider won rookie of the year in NJL and 3 equal in NJL Grand Prix series and nice guy
  14. There is a more in the rider than in the bike !!!!!! and pretty sure Liam will have his equipment ready for start of season if not already he was thrown in at the deep end at the end of last season and never looked out of place at admadale which is probably the hardest track to ride in the pl the others he rode in pl were probably new to him but he will be more experienced on them next year and with Claus vissing there he will help him big time as him and cookie helped him a lot at Edinburgh and the good thing about Liam was he took it all in and did it on the track and looking at a few of the no 7s this year they are in there first year in pl don't think anyone should worry about him he will do just fine and he should not have any pressure on him in his first full year
  15. Looking at most teams declared so far the number 7,s seems to be British 3 pointers and in their first full year and think if we get someone with a bit more experience there , it could be the key to a decent season would like Joey one of our assets finished well and will be better with having ridden all away track last season think he should be given a chance
  16. the connect lwb will take 2 bikes chirstan hendry has a one
  17. Tommy fenwick will do a great job for the Coventry storm and i don't think travel will bother him at all and he has got great machinery for a guy that's only been riding for a year i think he will surprise a few folk with his gating heat leaders will have to be quick to beat him to that first corner super quick your on to a winner with him just watch him bang in the points :t:
  18. i seen him at armadale of friday night and he looked very quick, with quicker times than heats 12 and 14 looks hungry for it and sure he will do a job for the bears
  19. thats a bad start to the team for before a wheel is turned going to be a hard man to replace Vissing????
  20. as someone stated earlier when the MCF approached the mx clubs of which i was a part of as i was on a scottish mx club committee at the time they were told to pee off until the MCF laid it all out for clubs to see how they could make a little more money for each club as most were on there knees with all the monies they had to put out to the acu to run a club events of which they got back nothing in return !!! now 80 percent of mx clubs run with the MCF as they have a licence to run most events cant see them not trying to get into speedway maybe that's what speedway needs a shake up and brought into the 21 century
  21. Having came from mx to speedway last year and having done. A Few red bull and dep challenge meetings I can tell you they are very well run organised unit . And very strict with every thing very well equipped with sound meters for sound checks on silencers and machine testers/ examiners with tool for checking barrel sizes which a couple of riders are chosen randomly after every race and checked most mx clubs moved over to MCF because they were a lot cheaper to run there events through with the clubs making a bit more money as the acu used to charge clubs a fortune for licences permits insurance the MCF are now working in the 21 century with everything on line rather than a stamp and cheque book can't see why they can't work together on something like this. I take it most if not all of the riders that will ride in this are British and don't ride abroad can't see any harm competion is good for business in every sport
  22. http://www.mcfederation.com/MCFEDERATION.aspx Matt and Craig federation
  23. The Bymx and british mx championship is now just about finished the gates are dwindling away with most folk doing the likes of the red bull series or dep challenge and the master all run by the MCF and and the top riders that ride abroad which is not many these days also have a acu licence as well as a MCF As they want to race in as many events as they can but the money in mx is no where near as much as you can earn at speedway most riders just want to ride as much as they can
  24. Nearly all the motocross clubs are now. Affiliated with the MCF after leaving the acu because they were paying to much to run there events To the acu Now the MCF run it without any interference from the acu they do not pay acu a penny for this either so speedway could go the same way
