Somerset is a good track, usually provides good racing and in the summer the surroundings are nice. I just wish they provided more food / drink outlets and toilets for those fans who stand on the back straight. Two portaloos just don't cut it. Redcar did a far better job with the Fours last season. That said, still looking forward to the meeting this year.

Looking at format looks like designed for 10 teams so someone will have to miss out.

Its called a BSPA shared event, that gives you a clue, all of the promoters get an cut of the gate money.

I got told that Berwick were participating so unsure if that’s true or not.

They must be going off the top 2 riders averages in which case Newcastle will miss out.

I guess it will be 3 groups, one group will only have 3 teams in it, the winner of each group will proceed to the semi as will the highest second place team(based on average points scored). Although all the teams are included I am not a fan of the format, I don't think teams get enough rides.

22 riders 15 Laps with a Le Mans start

Winning team riders have to finish in consecutive positions but not 21st and 22nd

Good line-up, just a shame its held at Somerset, which takes 2hrs to get there from Cardiff with the Friday afternoon traffic, and crap facilities that takes an age to get a drink , a loo and miss 4-5 heats while doing so like last time , no thanks !!  . I'll stick to a nice evening in Cardiff and keep an eye on the updates :drink:
