Berwick did it on Saturday with a 9.30 curfew and a delay at heat 2 were there's a will there's a way. Berwick are very good at giving the younger riders track time . If Birmingham have agreed the fixture they have to push the main meeting on no letting the meeting drag on they have to remember the juniors are traveling a long way for no reimbursement.

Hoping tracks good as there is a junior challenge with Berwick academy afterwards 9 heats of 125 250 and 500 cc

Is it the Bspl who have done this or is it an assumption. If it it's the former it's a poor state of affairs

We only have 2 one is for cash payments one is for online payment. Personally got to the track at 7.20 and was in by 7.25 through the online section . THere was a sizeable queue to pay though

Fantastic evening track was as good as it's been for years . Jordan Palin was man of the meeting for me always in the mix and looks to be maturing as a rider. Also for Redcarr Jake Allen was top notch be good to have him back next season

Anybody have the times for the 250cc racing in the second half please

the difference in the gp is its one race one tyre unlike here where its meant to be on tyre per meeting. recently we used anlas 002 in the 250 cc class in poland and germany and did one race per edge and got similar wear patterns to the anlas 003 which we use in the uk. the tyres are not designed for longevity

For goodness sake theo has been consistently scoring and is a good team man Auty is out for himself and not a team player give your heads a wobble

We ran our 125cc speedway bike on methanol as do some other in the youth class at the moment

No thanks

yep pretty much

Think you could be right there the mechanic he had at scunthorpe was formula one standard

Manzares was crap would rather stick with macdonald who is also crap in the majority of meetings however he will get the occasional big score .

Agree totally but has a fantastic attitude to the team

Only on Friday as scunny is my local track and he needed a hand had a foot in both camps only meeting I want to be a draw

In fairness I'm glad leon didn't ride in 12 was a nightmare for the Mechanics doing heats 1,2,4 would of also been 11,12,14 ran me raggged

we have already done more miles this season than him and nobody has even mentioned paying us for points travel and giving us facilities to clean our stuff

In our experience of the system I would always give massive credit to scunthorpe and Berwick when mentioning the development of my lad both clubs have been fantastic to him from being very young . Yes as parents we do put in the hard yards and to an extent put our lives on hold for speedway but it's family time and treated that way.

pay on gate its easier

In fairness I was not overly impressed with this year line up when announced and did state on here we would beat Plymouth ( much to Lewy,s disliking) and Newcastle and couldn't see much past that. But the team has been fantastic around the EWR on every meeting I have seen (missed Leicester) with the racing getting back to its best yesterday was brilliant. I did eat humble pie and tell Rob as if you can criticise you have to be man enough to be mocked when your original thoughts were way off long May it continue

Let's hope there plenty of dirt but can't see it had a full program today with the dirt diggers there and tomorrow is the British youth 250 and 500cc classes after the meeting so can see it be wet to start with and dusty and slick by about heat 12 .

Always good racing and never a meeting abandoned due to state of track

Great team effort by the scorpions today Jorgensen was superb Allen was a great number 1 lambert did more than was expected and Macdonald looked better on a slicker track and theo was his usual competitive self and picked up points when needed, jordan seemed to struggle with a bumpy track but out scored his opposite number , rr for tero was the biggest difference between the sides. It was as good a meeting as you will see entertaining from start to finish. Having seen Glasgow the last two away meetings they do seem poor later on with the riding order as it is

Shame for Sheldon don't think he would of been dropped if Newcastle we're still in the league

It's warm and cloudy 10 miles away
