If you took the time to read the details you would realise the ref has made a simple mistake ( which refs are prone too!). Redcar Cubs are sponsored by Stockton Van Centre, which is emblazoned on their race jackets. Refs aren't usually keen on Junior matches as it stops them getting away early from the meeting, hence the lack of details they record. The Northside meeting details are on the NJL site, the reason it doesn't feature on the SCB site is that the match preceded an Amateur meeting so an ' official ' referee was not present. It was actually refereed by Craig Cook of Belle Vue and Edinburgh. If you have any further questions, just ask! I may not have the answers to hand but I will endeavour to get the answers for you as soon as I am able. If you do " give up" on the NJL then please stop having a dig without the curtesey of asking first.

If you want to keep up with junior speedway you need to keep up with the internet. Junior Speedway has mostly youngsters involved in the riding side and youngsters use the internet all the time. This is why the relevant news is on Facebook, the NJL has it's own Facebook page which does include heat details. Most of the riders are not that interested in seeing their name on sites, they just want to ride! One of the many problems we have is that the tannoy system in the pits are never great and hence anybody trying to complete a programme very rarely can hear the heat times. The rules on the new NJL format and fixtures were not made by the NJL, they were imposed on us by the BSPA . Due to fixture congestion over the last few seasons, mainly in the MDL, the BSPA insisted that after two attempts to run a fixture , a result must be declared. As the Castleford v Berwick match was rained off twice and then ran into the dreaded curfew problem a result had to be declared. None of the teams wanted this but we are dictated to by the BSPA. Instead of knocking those who are trying to get the youngsters involved in speedway, perhaps you might like to get involved at some level. You might then appreciate the problems the few who put themselves forward as organisers have to cope with. Only those that are involved understand the hurdles over which we have to jump. Whilst I understand your frustration in not being able to get result details as soon as you would like, we are doing our best to get riders out on track, the statistics come later. Please be a little less critical of our efforts.

This has the results of the three matches that have taken place so far. The Castleford v Berwick KOC match was rained off, twice! Then didn't take place due to time curfew so each team took one point. Castleford have qualified for the final after their one point victory over Redcar and await the completion of other fixtures to find out their opposition.

Due to a clash of dates and track work there will not be an Open practice/hire bike session on this date. This date is a CLOSED session for Redcar contracted riders and Redcar Cubs riders only. The next open practice date will be advertised on here as soon as I have a confirmed date. Any queries to Brian Havelock please.

Check your float level. The fuel should come up to the level of the joint on the bowl when viewed through the vent pipe. A worn float jet can also cause the problem, rough edges on the float and rubber plunger worn....just replace it. The previous advice about sticking floats also can happen....give it a wack with handle of a screwdriver does it for me.

That's the plan but work is now taking place to alter the safety fence to accept the new air fence. Weather permitting it all should be completed for the 15th March.

Sorry but the storm has now hit us and with more forecast we have reluctantly give up the battle with the buckets, so practice is now off.

Sorry but tomorrow's session has had to be called OFF due to the track being saturated, the pits area under water and the forecast is for more rain. We have made the decision early to save people travelling costs and the inconvenience of a last minute decision. We will try and reschedule a session as soon as possible, watch this space.

To assist those travelling a distance, we will have a track inspection on Friday afternoon. The track is very , very wet at the moment so keep an eye on this site.

Sessions planned to run every third Saturday in the month and will be advertised on here and the Redcar Speedway website.
