Tosh1218 593 Posted April 19 As a Scunny fan pleased with the points ,hope Charles is ok but let’s talk about the track . It was the worse I’ve seen for entertainment it was gate and go plus there was a lot of riders getting in trouble on bend 4 . One last gripe why was the programme not correct ?? to much writing and changing names due it not been printed with a correct race card Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boz 316 Posted April 20 Fair post again from Yearby. Think with Charles we may have won but who knows. Was a much improved performance by some, with Knudsen having a good night and Bailey looked quick after his opening ride. Great to see Edwards continue his progress. For Scunny MPT was excellent, with rest giving good support without any real standouts I thought. Harrisons four points proved hugely crucial. Track on the slick side again but understandable with the amount of rain again this week. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like Boz said I don’t think the weather has helped and hopefully just early season issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scunny1 436 Posted April 20 Well done Scorpions, a good team effort all round and another maximum for MPT. Nice to see Kyle finding his gating boots at last. Hope Wrighty is only battered and bruised after his awkward fall. Couple of issues, pity we were not allowed a lap of honour after heat 15, I am sure if the Bears won they would have been straight out there before any second half races. The carpark is a bomb site and needs sorting very quickly as well as the exit out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a snub to Scorpions at all. Car park is pretty treacherous to walk through in the dark, especially if it has been wet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted April 20 Well done the Scorpions. A result I never expected half way through & Redcar to pull away but the injury & resulting withdrawal was pivotal. Danny King went AWOL, Knudson eased up, Edwards was superb all night, Bailey came to the party & both reserves missed out on them 3rd places but was this because of the pressure we put on them finding our feet. MPT had a great night again having to work for his paid max, Howarth got it together, Allen had an unexpected night going by how his season has started & being an ex Bear but all the others chipped in running only ONE last place after heat 7.

Scunthorpe had their ‘lap of honour’ , just after the first junior race, like always happens at Redcar, no matter who wins. Agree about the car park but it’s not the speedways car park , and the council have been asked to do something about it but don’t hold your breath.

How are the away fans supposed to know that, an announcement might have been good? I was already trying to avoid the muddy ruts and bushes getting out of the car park by then. Any chance it can be bladed and graded before my next visit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you were already trying to get out of the car park during the first junior race then you wouldn’t have seen any lap of honour anyway , but an announcement for impatient people might of helped. Try writing to Redcar council about the car park, see if you have more luck than the club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was a couple of individuals who had a go at the track during Havelocks reign, Hainsworth is one of those and he’s still learning the craft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
