Sorry to hear about the cancellation of the proposed meeting at the STMP.

 

Fans starved of dirt-track racing action are reminded that there IS a meeting being held on this Saturday though..: a bit south of Redcar (!!): at Scunthorpe Speedway Stadium.

 

This is the annual Short Track UK Christmas Cracker meeting and there has been assembled perhaps the most varied field ever for an event on a British Speedway track.

Stars from the world of motorcycling include 11-times Isle of Man TT winner, John McGuinness (McGuinness who, by the way, is hoping to graduate to some second halves at Belle Vue this coming season..!!); 2003 World Superbikes Champion Neil Hodgson; Steve Plater, who’s just won the Macau GP; plus four-times runner-up in the British Superbikes, Chris Walker and Benji and Andre’s Road Racing brother, Dijon Compton. Then there’s British Supermoto Champion, Andy Mitchell – plus grasstracker Jamie Rodgers and from the Scorpions themselves, Benji Compton. Also another opportunity to see Lee Complin – reigning STUK champ (and perhaps THE hottest prospect awaiting to be enticed back into full-time Speedway..??!!)

 

So if you were planning to go to the meeting at Redcar and have a blank spot in your diary now, why not try the Cracker..: the action gets underway at Normanby Rd. on Saturday 30th. December at 1.30 pm; admission: £8.50 adults; £6.00 pensioners; £3.00 children five to 16; and under fives free. £20.00 Family ticket

Hi,

The Redcar meeting has been called off due to the lack of entries and no other reason.

We had a poor response from the riders and had only few entries for the 500 class.

We waited for the post today as the closing date was the 24th. We cant run a meeting without riders.

We had good prize money, and a good track  so I dont know what else the riders want.

 

Happy New Year.
