LEARN LESSONS, BEARS WARNED By Martin Neal, Evening Gazette ~ Friday 9th May 2008 GET out of your comfort zone and you’ll start winning again - that was the blunt message from straight-talking promoter Glyn Taylor after Redcar TLS Bears’ unbeaten run came to a shuddering end. Taylor’s side had expected a tough test against Somerset Rebels at South Tees Motorsports Park last night but were tipped to record their seventh win on the trot nonetheless. But their form deserted them and they crashed 54-39 - their heaviest ever home defeat and possibly their worst ever performance at home too. The Rebels gave their hosts a lesson in gating and looked committed and fast right from the start. :: >>> HERE
CUBS BURN OUT DEVILS By Steve Harland ~ Thursday 8th May 2008 Following on from the senior team’s biggest victory of the season against Scunthorpe Scorpions last Saturday the TLS/Simpson Racing UK Cubs and the Plymouth Devils served up a pulsating finale in front of a much bigger crowd than usual. In the space of four races the Cubs turned a 9pt deficit into an unlikely 4pt victory against the team hotly tipped as title favourites. :: >>> HERE
RACE NIGHT TIME IS TIGHT By Steve Harland ~ Thursday 8th May 2008 SECOND HALF races at the South Tees Motorsports track on Thursday nights must now be curtailed at 9.30pm.

It means the rider parade of Premier League meetings will now commence at 7.15pm and the meeting itself at 7.30pm :: >>> HERE
REBELS LOOK FORWARD TO SOUTH TEES VISIT By Redcar Speedway ~ Wednesday 7th May 2008 It's Premier League speedway action at the South Tees Motorsport Park on Thursday evening when the Redcar 'TLS' Bears face the Somerset Rebels. The clubs have a common link in the fact that Bears promoter Glyn Taylor and Bears Director of Operations Gareth Rogers were involved in the launch of the sport at the Oak Tree Arena near Highbridge at the turn of the century before re-uniting in 2006 for speedway's re-launch on Teesside. As such Glyn has built both speedway circuits and both are regarded as the best racing strips in the UK. They are similar for understandable reasons and the respective teams look forward to their fixture clashes. :: >>> HERE
GRIEVES TAKES IT TO THE MAX! By Martin Neal, Evening Gazette ~ Monday 5th May 2008 MAXIMUM man James Grieves led in-form Redcar TLS Bears to a club record sixth straight victory - then revealed he was determined to end the night unbeaten. The Bears saw off Scunthorpe 55-35 - their biggest win of the season - in the Premier Trophy on Saturday, with Grieves winning every one of his five races. And that was a just reward for the flying Scotsman who is in sizzling form and was pipped to a maximum by less than a machine’s length in one of the best races ever seen at South Tees Motorsports Park last Thursday. :: >>> HERE
