Actual final was a disappointment tbh, Lambert made the start and cleared off, Zmarzlik never looked like making an impression at any point in the race.

Shouldn't be any excuse for lack of home track experience/knowledge if the track can be made available at virtually any time for practice sessions?

Yes, and no interval after heat 11, no messing about with kids running round the track, etc. They'll need to be finished the main meeting by 6:30pm, otherwise I hope the juniors have fitted headlights on their bikes.......

What are they arguing about? There are plenty of rainfall radar websites that give an accurate forecast? What time is the curfew should be the main consideration? It was miraculous what they did in Wrocslaw earlier in the season but it at least had stopped raining.

ridiculous if this goes on, not ideal but should've called it after 16

Not going to need to by the looks of it

Kurtz looking like he's on a 250cc, no speed at all there

Just hung 3rd load of washing out for the day

Bone dry, hasn't been a single drop today and nothing in the last 24 hours either, thought when I looked at the forecast yesterday that the postponement was a bit premature. Workington Reds football at home today, Town v Haven tomorrow, Speedway World Cup later this afternoon (with Charles Wright absent from the Redcar side), if I were cynical I'd say it had been called off due to expected low attendance rather then the weather........

Away win, 42-48

Doubt it, Workington have one heat leader, three second strings and three reserves.

Much is made of how good the NSS track is but in reality it's a narrow one-line track in the latter stages of these meetings, whoever gets to the dirt line beside the fence first coming out of the second bend first lap is pretty much guaranteed the win as long as they don't make a mistake.

Comets racing each other in heat 1🤔

And me, only £2.50 e/w (main money was on BZ @15/8), but better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick as the saying goes 😁

Proper bowser out now

Need to go to 6pm start time, any water put down on the track has evaporated by the time the water truck comes round again. Or a stronger watering system, looks like an aerosol spray.

Think Plymouth will fancy this; Grmek will outscore Workington's reserves, and r/r again for Cook won't make what Cook would've scored.

Scott and Pijper will win this for Redcar

And not a single mention of the meeting in the local 'Times & Star' yet again 😡

Pole deliberately fell into him, conned the ref, equivalent to a dive in football

Awful, 2 heats gone and it looks like a foregone conclusion

Well done to Berwick, made Workington look like the away team for much of the time. And what an anti climax to the meeting for the supporters, if I'd known Workington were putting a reserve out to get battered against Kemp and Kildemand I wouldn't have hung around in the pouring rain.

Would bet on PK to get a maximum today (if we don't get rained off). Workington don't look to have anyone capable of beating him. Or Kemp or Jeppesen for that matter.

It's gone 3:15pm, heavy rain incoming and we still aren't underway. Don't know what the delay is as the P.A. system is unintelligible

Hopefully Bewley and the rest will compete and not just sit back and let BK and BS get on with it. Bewley currently 14/1 for the win, seems generous to me, maybe the bookies thinking along the same lines as me, i.e. he'll be keeping out of the way?
