Scunny Stag Posted November 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Tomorrow's amateur meeting has been put back to Sunday 17th November and will be run instead of the practice that day and the December meeting has also been moved from Saturday 7th to Sunday 8th. Tomorrow's mini track session with Wayne Carter is unaffected and this Sunday's practice will also go ahead. Sorry for this but hope the early decision is appreciated.

Scunny Stag Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Match report from last amateur meeting (17th November): Winter Series kicks off in style Scunthorpe Speedway kicked off their sixth Winter Series in style with 42 riders competing in 81 races in a little over five hours on Sunday 17th November. The track was in great condition and all three adult speedway classes had decent turnouts. The Open Class attracted quite a few riders with National League experience and, after picking himself up after a second-bend fall in the first running of the final, it was Scunthorpe asset Oliver Greenwood, who made the most of his second chance to claim victory ahead of Buxton’s Matt Williamson, and two former Scunthorpe Saints, Max Clegg and Tommy Fenwick. Fenwick came through a very competitive ‘B’ Final against Arron Mogridge, Shane Waldron and Ryan MacDonald whilst debutants Luke Harris and Krystian Bialecki also acquitted themselves well in their Open Class debuts. The Support Class was dominated by Adam Extance and Liam Sanderson with Sanderson gaining revenge for his only defeat in qualifying with an outstanding pass of Extance in the final. Debutants Shaun Wilson and Mick Skinner completed the final in the first double-figure Support Class line-up. As with the other adults classes there were some impressive performances in the Novice Class with the top two, debutant Tom Bacon and Ben Basford both looking to move up to the Support Class at the next meeting. They were joined by Tom Sipos and Matt Davis in the final whilst other class winners were Derek Holt (Pit Bikes), Sam Chapman (Youth 250), Kyle Bickley (Youth 125) and Bailey Fellows (Youth Pit Bikes). The next meeting is Sunday 8th December (moved from the Saturday) and places for the meeting can be reserved by contacting Richard Hollingsworth via email (richard@scunthorpespeedway.com), Facebook (www.facebook.com/rh1967) or phone (07832-402167 – please text or leave a message if unavailable).

Scunny Stag Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi Eric, Sorry I often only come on here once a week to update. The results are on the club website and in the facebook group. In future feel free to text or email me and I'll get back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunny Stag Posted January 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 It is with regret that we are going to have to cancel Sunday's practice. Quite a lot of rain has fallen today and with more forecast for tomorrow (albeit not too much) there is no chance of it drying out in time. With the base in great condition we really we need a good day to day and a half of drying weather and we will be good to go. So hopefully next Sunday, 26th January, we can be back on track. Sorry about tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunny Stag Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Hopefully all is going to be okay for this coming Sunday's practice(and of course Andy Meredith's Training School on Saturday).

Scunny Stag Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 It is with deep regret that we have had to cancel this weekend's track activity.

The next track activity is due to be the amateur meeting next Saturday (1st February) and the practice on Sunday 2ndmeeting next Saturday (1st February) and the practice on Sunday 2nd February.d February.

Scunny Stag Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Sadly we have had to cancel this weekend's track activity. Thursday wasn't the drying day that was predicted earlier in the week and with a lot of rain set to fall on Friday we will be back to square one. It means there will be no main track or mini track activity this coming weekend. The next track activity is due to be the amateur meeting which has been rearranged to replace the practice on Sunday 9th February. Any riders wanting to enter the meeting needs to contact me on 07832-402167. The next minitrack activity is now planned to be a Wayne Carter session on 15th February and once again people need to book spaces with myself.

stephen cook Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Richard just to let you know the Ride N Slide Day is on the 8th March not the 3rd as advertised. Cookie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunny Stag Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Okay, last weekend was a great success with 97 races in the amateur meeting on Saturday, a good turnout for Sunday's practice and a really good session for Wayne Carter's group on the minitrack. This coming Saturday sees Andy Meredith running one of his popular speedway academies on Saturday with a 'Ladies Day' on the minitrack and a group on the main track before Sunday sees the club run our penultimate winter practice from 12-4pm on the main track. Anyone wanting more info on the latter then contact me (text is better if possible) on 07832-402167. The next Wayne Carter Minitrack session on Saturday 15th and the next Wayne Carter Main Track Training Session is on Sunday 29th. All bookings are done through myself.

Scunny Stag Posted March 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 Just spotted that we still had two practices listed for 23rd and 30th March. Please accept my apologies but they were cancelled some time ago because on the 23rd we have the first round of the British Youth Championship whilst the Scorpions and Stags seasons start with a home double-header on Sunday the 30th March. However, track time is possible at Scunthorpe over the next couple of weeks with Andy Meredith running a training school on the main track on Saturday 22nd and Wayne Carter also running a main track training school on Saturday 29th. Bookings for the Wayne Carter TS is through myself with the 29th being the last of his four hour winter schools. After that they will revert to the full day versions. All details are listed at the bottom of the first post on this thread. Finally, we are counting down to our next amateur meeting, which is also the first in our Summer Championship. The date is Saturday 5th April and once again I am the person to contact (see my signature or the bottom of the first post for options) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunny Stag Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 This coming weekend Wayne Carter still has spaces on his main track training school (Saturday 11am to 3pm, £50) and for his minitrack session on Sunday morning (9am to 1pm because of the Scorpions meeting at 3pm) whilst I'm also taking bookings for the following weekend's amateur meeting (Saturday 5th April).

Scunny Stag Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 31 riders already booked for Saturday's amateur meeting. I'm sure we can get to 40 riders but will we get to 50? Wayne Carter has his next mini track session on Saturday 12th April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scunny Stag Posted April 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Still two places left for this coming Saturday's session with Wayne Carter on the minitrack (Sat 3rd May) but Sunday's training school is fully booked. The following Saturday (May 10th) has plenty of spaces available with Wayne on the minitrack (10am to 2pm because of a stock car meeting later in the day) then on Sunday May 18th we have an amateur meeting. The Open, Support, Youth 500 and flat track classes will run in the morning (signing on 9.30-10.30am) with the Novice Class, Youth 250, Youth 150, Adult Pit Bike and Youth Pit Bike classes in the afternoon (signing on around 1pm).
