Wouldn't it be better to give the winners of the 4s in 2017 a by to the final and have 2 groups with the same number of teams in them, the winners going to the final with the highest points scoring 2nd team from the groups. If my memory is correct one of the past discussions was that the winners of the last years final should be able to defend the title, and that all teams should be at the meeting ( remember all the fuss when 2 teams were taken out then re-instated ) Why make something so difficult when the answer to a good meeting is so simple!! don't the organisers of these events learn from the past or do they just like to upset the fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boz Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Back straight will be open - I believe they estimate around 1000 can be held there. Will be some extra pop-up bars as well I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topsoil Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Not exactly sure of the format, but one semi will be over ten heats, the other twelve. The final twelve as well I would imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringbackHalifax Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Not seen all the teams but I understand that at least 5 of the teams will not be including their current highest Ave rider in this meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) I think this will be a very tight meeting, with quite a few potential winners. Favourites, I would make that, Sheffield and Lakeside. After that I would go for, Peterboro, Scunthorpe, Glasgow and Ipswich. I think Edinburgh and Worky could be spoilers and if anyone slips up, could create a shock. That leaves the local teams, Redcar Newcastle and Berwick to make up the numbers. Up at the top end though, its a wide open meeting, for anyone who wants to grab it. The racing should be terrifically close and very exciting. Just noticed Ricky Wells not riding. Scrub the Monarchs chances. Edited June 23, 2018 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Will be no King for Ipswich - will therefore be tracking both reserves in the 5 as Haertel out as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Redcar can't match Bell Vue for facilities but at least give the venue a chance, you never know, you might actually enjoy the day Just as a footnote - you can pre-book a seat in the stand for £3 ...oh , and we'll be missing 2 heat leaders so doubt we'll progress that far but I'm happy to go along and watch some, hopefully, great speedway hi have you any idea where to contact to pre book the seats in the stand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yearbyred Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 From Redcar Facebook page a bit more info:- For the Championship Fours meeting limited disabled car parking space will be available inside the stadium and at the very front of the main car park by the turnstiles. All car parks will be stewarded and they will be in radio contact with each other. No vehicles parked inside the stadium will be allowed to leave until the meeting has fully ended so if you intend to leave prior to the last race do not park inside the stadium. Staff car parking will be in the Stunt School Arena to the left of the turnstiles. Limited Motorcycle parking is also available inside the main gate. Whilst additional car parking space has been secured please allow plenty of time to enter the stadium as you may have a short walk to the Media Prima Arena. Those people that have enquired about grandstand seats will have their calls replied to on Tuesday. Additional catering units and pop-up bars will be in attendance around the stadium. We look forward to seeing fans from all clubs on Sunday, bring your own sun tan cream! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
