Teesside Silver Helmet

[NC86]

I’ve just read Jamie Swales heartfelt plea for people to attend this Saturdays Silver Helmet , now to be honest I like most Redcar fans thought the BSN final against Poole was the last meeting particularly as the silver helmet hasn’t ran for a couple of years now. It sounds like it’s been really difficult to get riders interested and except for Doyle , Klindt and Harris the rest of the line up sounds mediocre to be say the least , nevertheless if it had stayed on the Friday I and many others would have attended , however now it’s a Saturday I can’t due to pre- arranged plans ( and I’m gutted to miss Doyle) but if this meeting can jeopardise the club financially I would have left it. I hope people do attend and it’s a success however.

The meeting just about summed up the Redcar season, promised much but disappointed.

The ‘guest track curator ‘ got the track wrong, too much loose stuff resulting in Doyle not lasting one bend. Track blading required meaning delays on a cold damp night and not much overtaking to talk about. Not very entertaining.

Swales got his good crowd but a few drifted away, surprised to see Charles Wright in the crowd . Thought young Southwick was the surprise rider, Lawson should have been the winner but thats the result of second chance finals and Kemp took it.

Heres to a Redcar revamp in 2027.

Everything at Redcar needs a revamp. The team has stagnated,  the track gets worse as the season drags on and the management personnel need replacing.  New owners , possibly the bloke ( jed? )that was involved with peterborough should be given the opportunity to buy it all out . The half dozen times i visited this season were pretty disappointing.

3rd visit to Redcar this year from worky, yet again delays for track work, not good enough as been like this every visit, enjoyed the meeting, hope doyle and Theo are ok after big offs, both walked away thankfully. The race with bomber and klindt was epic, Charlie southwick a good 2 points prospect, apparently travels from Dorset to ride Speedway wherever he can, just hope that the south coast club who doesn't promote junior speedway, jumps in with ££s to sign him, deserves to go to a club that's helps juniors out
