Thanks Bob for that--also during the meeting I'm too busy getting the lads ready for the races to listen out for times as well as organising the 250 lads, making sure they all have the chance to come off each gate and yesterday when we started off with five working out who was dropping out each time --although when Shane moved into the main meeting this solved that problem for a while ---and then we ended with three with Adam hurting his hand when he fell (hope he is ok !!).

 

Seeing those --some impressive times from young Marc Owen !!!

Quite surprised a few of us too!

 

Mark Owen and Shane Hazelden certainly look quite accomplished and very stylish for ones so young.

 

A good days racing all round.Well worth the long drive from Poole!

taken from our local paper, the Evening Gazette :

 

Pocket rocket Joe Haines is celebrating his first speedway trophy after being crowned British Under-15 champion.

 

Now the pint-sized Cleveland Bays starlet has his sights on going right to the very top.

 

Haines, who turned 15 last month, has been a revelation in the Conference Shield this year, scoring double figures in all but one appearance for the South Bank-based Bays - and on the other occasion he recorded a paid maximum!

 

 

 

 

Story continues

He went into Saturday's final round of the British Under-15 Championship at South Tees Motorsports Park with a two-point lead over nearest challenger Ben Hopwood in the aggregate standings.

 

 

And he duly completed the job on his home track, even coming from behind to beat Hopwood in the final.

 

 

"It's brilliant," said Haines, who is rated one of the hottest young prospects in speedway. "Ben beat me once when I missed the start but beat him in the final."

 

 

Among the spectators at Saturday's meeting was Redcar Bears captain Gary Havelock, who won the 1992 world championship.

 

 

Now Haines believes he can follow in Havvy's tyretreads by winning the sport's richest prize after cutting his speedway teeth on Teesside.

 

 

"If I didn't think I was going to become world champion, I wouldn't be doing it," said Haines.

 

 

"It's no good coming second - winning is what it's all about."

 

 

Haines scored 11 points from his four programmed rides on Saturday, losing only to Hopwood in his second outing.

 

 

That was good enough to put him straight through to the final, along with Hopwood who scored ten.

 

 

Adam Wrathall and George Piper made up the quartet in the final, but it was always going to be about Haines and Hopwood.

 

 

Hopwood trapped the quickest but Haines had the measure of him, roaring past on the first lap and stayed in front.

 

 

Next year there will be a 250cc British Championship for the young guns too, enabling our hottest young prospects to compete at an even younger age.

 

 

The riders will use purpose-built Jawa engines and the initiative should put British riders on an even keel with their counterparts in Scandinavia where youth speedway has long since flourished.

 

 

The 80cc engines used to such good effect by youngsters in Sweden and Denmark are no longer made, so the introduction of a 250cc championship over here will level the playing field.

 

 

Fans at South Tees Motorsports Park on Saturday were given a glimpse of the future in the form of seven non-championship 250cc races. All were won by 12-year-old Marc Owen in some style - watch for the name in a few years!

 

 

Cleveland Bays' final match of the season at home to Buxton Hitmen has been rescheduled for Thursday, October 26.

 

 

It had been due to take place this Thursday, but that is when the Bears' rained off Tyne Tees Trophy first leg against Newcastle will now take place.
