They probably list it that way as the original concept was the riders on old Honda type 125cc engines but , speedway being speedway, riders sought quicker more expensive engines and some began using oversized 140 pit bike engines . They then said sealed engines only but that was openly flouted and now it’s a free for all and no engines get checked anyway. As there’s virtually nothing in the rule book covering these machines it is basically a ride what ever you like class as long as it’s classed as ‘ safe ‘.

It might have been youth racing but the twitter page said British Youth at 5pm when main meeting at Newcastle was at 4pm(you will NEVER get a meeting done in 60 minutes). They then had the result of the Youth meeting held at Scunthorpe so my original post was correct & the British Speedway twitter had it wrong. Thank you!

Fortythirtyeight Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 £10 admission to watch the youth at Leicester and others on the forum think it should be that to watch a main match, something of an imbalance there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think £10 is a bit much but will be some good racing on show . The 250 class is the strongest this year and usually provides the best action 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topcat Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 What are the current lineups in the three categories and how does it stand at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 Only 1 round completed so far and very lightly supported in the below 2 classes. Vinnie Foord was due out in the 500's but instead they ran 3 rider races. Not much better in the 250's with the 4 below and Ashton Vale completing the line up. 500cc: Sam McGurk, Jody Scott, Max James 250cc: Luke Harrison, Sonny Springer, William Cairns, Jamie Etherington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
