Is it just me or is there no thread for this?

 

Just shows how much an average field gets the juices going, truly a poor line-up compared to the riders we have had in recent years.

2. Ricky Ashworth (Sheffield)

3. Chris Kerr (Newport)

4. Carl Stonehewer (Redcar)

5. Andre Compton (Workington)

6. Ben Wilson (Redcar)

7. Emiliano Sanchez (Kings Lynn)

8. Ty Proctor (Redcar)

9. Mark Lemon (Newcastle)

10. Robbie Kessler (Redcar)

11. Peter Kilderman (Sweden)

12. Kenny Ingalls (USA)

13. Jeremiah Thelaus (Sweden)

Makovsky is in for Ashworth according to Havvy Snr on the radio last night.

 

No big name riders like the last few years but think it will be a very close meeting and a few riders could win it.

 

Agreed. :approve:

 

Ok, the standard of rider might be down but the standard of competition could well be up.

 

Could indeed be very close and for that reason I am tempted to come up.

I am not saying I wanted Crumpy, but the likes of Stuart Robson and Ricky Kling - who rode last year would have been good, some lower order EL riders who we otherwise wouldnt see - this field is very uninspiring - Gregoric and Kilderman aside!

 

I know what your saying RR, but hey ho not to worry.

 

Get yourself over to the 2nd bend to introduce yourself tonigh :)

Sorry mate, but surely you don't need to explain where you stand, surely people will hear you, just following the sound of distant drums. :wink:

Good meeting to end the season on with STMP something like its old self :approve:

 

Bit quiet to start with but some cracking racing later on from the likes of Kerr, Proctor, Swales, Sanchez and the amazing Maks Gregoric :approve:

 

By the way, what was that weather all about ? Late October & Redcar usually mean arctic convoy conditions but it was an unbelievable 62 degrees. :o:blink:

Was a great way to end the season last night, in front of the biggest crowd i can remember for a long, long time. Took a while for the meeting to get going, but once it did there was some excellent racing. A great way to end the season for Ty, and a great way to say goodbye to Redcar. Has been a joy to watch the last two years.

 

Thought Chris was excellent, some of his passes were superb and think I speak for every redcar fan when I say we would love to see him back next year. He will certainly have his pick of clubs though. Maks was again superb, and look forward to watching him next season. He will be worth the entrance fee on his own.

 

Big mention for Stuey Swales as well who had a great meeting.

 

As for the other riders, thought Kenny Ingalls gave it everything. Was quite erratic in his first few rides but when he shot out the tapes he looked good. The young Swede again took a couple of rides to weigh up the track but then looked decent as well. Kildemand didnt look as quick as last year but was never off the pace.

 

Roll on March!
