IT'S now official the Redcar Cubs will compete in a 15-heat seven man team event again at Buxton's picturesque Hi - Edge Raceway for the first time in seven years in April for their opening meeting since they were disbanded by the current promotion at South Tees Motorsport Park. The meeting takes on extra significance as former Redcar Cubs team manager Jason Pipe has just taken over the same role at Buxton.
Kevin Keay has been organising the riders he seeks to compete for the Cubs whilst I have been following-up sponsorship leads for the past month. The riders who have agreed to ride for the Cubs have done so for expenses and fuel & oil supplied by Barry Simpson of Simpson Racing UK. Keay and Jamie Swales have kept the Cubs alive by racing in the Northern Junior League the past few years but this will be the first time they have raced a full 15-heat meeting. If anyone is interested in helping us put out a competitive team - the meeting has to be self-financed. We have already received offers of help but we would like a few more - there are two riders in particular; one rode for both Buxton & Redcar and the other Buxton - if there are no fixture clashes and we can get permission from their parent clubs we certainly won't be going just to make the numbers up. We would like to thank Jayne Moss for giving us the opportunity to race this meeting - it will be a great experience for the team to race a full 15-heat meeting. We hope we can return the favour at STMP later on in the season.
If anyone is interested in helping us please ring me on 07769 258035 or e-mail me on sm.harland@googlemail.com - even £25 goes a long way to helping these lads. All sponsors will be publicly acknowledged. All monies will be collected by either myself or Kevin Keay and Kev will organise the payments to the riders.
