Thursday brings us to Belle Vue for another National Points Shootout Round, with the meeting also having a title race in the form of the World of Shale. The un-confirmed grid line up to date for the title race is like this: 561 .. 1 315 .. 527 39 .. 3 8 .. 391 290 .. 262 221 .. 365 31 .. 363 164 .. 413 531 .. 172 16 .. 515 Reserves (in order): 300, 484, 399, 137, 87, 233, 136, 188, 380, 151, 236, 107, 291, 516, 351, 495, 525, 41, 323, 85, 292, 126, 256, 390, 21, 588, 488, 4, 61, 325, 343, 553, 599 Current World Champion #1 Tom will be looking to retain the title, but with #561 Murf on his inside who has been having a terrific season on the loose stuff it maybe difficult to get the early break everyone desperately needs from the front. Going further back the grid eyes will be on Dutchman #315 Mike and #527 FT who have second row grid slots and have the pace to challenge both of the front runners. Moving back further still and the likes of #3 Johno, #39 Leek, #8 Tosh, #391 Corny and #290 Dazza may have to push hard in the opening few laps to get to the front, but it proves it can be done from further back the grid as proven by many of the championships so far this season. #531 Lee and #16JK have not raced much of late but a booking from both would be a pleasant sight and both have the potential to cause an upset from the back. #221 Spike, #365 Trav, #363 Walker, #164 Jarry, ##413 Matt, #172 Jnr and #515 Big Al are all currently on the grid and whilst a couple of them haven’t raced for more then a few weeks it would be great to see them line up for the title race at least, even if shale isn’t there more favoured surface. Regular drivers such #285 Mav Jnr, and #236 DanSkin will all be expected to be on the grid in the meeting proper, and whilst its fair to say these drivers maybe not the quickest about it is about time for a few lower graded drivers to come through and really show some potential. As mentioned, the Shooutout is back in town and while it seems to be a two horse race between #1 Tom and #315 Mike, the other shootout drivers are still battling away for the minor places and are by no means making it easy for the guys at the top. In fact, it has been noted on numerous occasions how hard the bumper has been going in by the drivers at the back as they try to battle there way through to the front of the field. Early bookings to come in are from 21 Southy who returns to Uk Dirt for another meeting after enjoying the meeting at Birmingham so much last week – by his own admission. 107 JanHarm is back to after far too many meetings away, with the same applying to entertainer #31 Skeet and #300 Matty who is another to watch from the front of the grid when the meeting gets going after the WoS race. With the current gaggle of Shootout drivers also booked the meeting is certainly being blue and star grade dominated at this moment in time. We hope to attract a few more whites and yellows to bolster the front of the grid, which I am sure will happen at the start next week. I will update the booking list as driver’s book in. 300 Mattyaspin - Yellow 31 Skeet - Blue 107 JanHarm - Blue 221 Spike - Blue 262 Harmen - Blue 3 Johno – S/S 290 Dazza S/S 315 Mike S/S 527 Fast track S/S 1 Tom D S/S Dont forget the popular TNT races are run after the Grand National, an up to date points chart is avavailable in the Birmingham results thread, get yourselves booked in now to see for yourself how good these races are! Many thanks to Johno for ceating the poster.

Great meeting I thought, well done to MoR on the heat/final double you were going really well all night. Regards to the TNT Mav, I always try and treat is as a fun end to the meeting and although Jnr had a a big hit from a few people (including myself as you mention) the fact that he 'shrugged it off' is a compliment to himself, he has gained more respect for not whinging and whining from me (and I expect Tom aswell) that we are even more likely to help him out when he is struggling. As for the cheat comment, I dont think I mentioned the word although whenever it comes up I try and use it as an opportunity to wind up Murf more then anything else, its a good job he can take abit of banter to! Next week If im luckily enough to be racing I will probably stick to racing properly in the TNT races though. Cheers once again Kev, Darren EDIT: Get well soon to Corny

A 'rusty' Dazza please Kev Cheers

Forgot to say great pics aswell Tosh, will have the last pic as my desktop as soon as I get home tommorow!

Wd Murf on the final, you must learn not to jump the starts though lmao Thanks once again to Spike/Kev on an excellent job running the meeting, although being low on numbers I felt the racing was great with the Shootout certainly hotting up although it maybe time to count me out as I might have to miss a week or two soon. Cheers Darren

Bugger, forgot to upload my new car. Dode if your about please help lol I'm not on my computer until tommorow so I'll try and get hold of him so he can upload it for me. Cheers Darren

Cheers lads for all the well done's etc The night itself for me couldn't have gone much better, and To end up outside front row was great, although I was expecting to hit the wall early on. Aub had suggested it was the lucky grid slot and thankfully for me it turned out that way :-). The first half of the race was pretty much chasing Tom, I think we were pretty much lapping at the same pace so I was quite happy to sit behind him for so long as I knew that accidents and backmarkers can be a problem at Skegness so would try and attack when a good opportunity arose. This came when a couple of cars tangled just in front of us and as we entered turn 3 I nudged one into Tom's rear bumper and escaped up the inside. As we left turn 2 on the following lap I suddenly pulled out a gap and I couldn't figure out how and it wasnt until after the race I found out Tom had clipped Corny and spun but at the time I had no idea what had happened. The next part of the race was spent picking my way through some back markers ( which were superb and moved over, Jnr, Cowie,Leek to name a few) and a quick look back saw Murf in second which was an outstanding effort from where he had started. Some carnage on the back straight slowed me down that much it allowed Murf to pounce and push me into 2nd with MoR not to far behind in 3rd, I managed to tag Murf twice in consecutive bends to stop him from driving away before MoR squeezed up the inside of me going into turn 3 on about lap 21. Exiting turn 2 saw trouble for Murf as he unluckily clipped the rear of Jarry which saw him crash to the tyres on the inside with myself and MoR racing on through. At this point I felt a little dissapointed I had lost such a good lead but then had to think of a way to attack MoR in such a way that a return hit was not possible the next bend. Turn 1/2 saw Cowie's parked car so after passing it once I had made my mind up if I could get close enough to MoR I would try and plant him into it. As we entered turn 1 I managed to give a hard but not ott hit to his bumper which pushed him nicely into Cowies dead car and allowed for my escape whilst at the same time I was pleased that MoR had managed to deflect off both car and wall and get out on track to retain 2nd place. From there on I just had to count down the following laps until I crossed the line, and to say I'm over the moon with winning would be an understatement! There were some other good racing in the heats aswell with the likes of Corny and JK so for me it really was an all round good meeting. I'd like to say thanks to both Jarry for an excellent preview and Kev for running the show once again, and I'm looking forward to wearing the checks with some pride after losing the gold in such a dissapointing way a few weeks ago. Just hope I can now turn in some decent performances in the Shootout, which I didn't think I would be saying now after a few weeks ago. Cheers once again all, Darren P.s Hats off to Dode who had a new car done for me the same night, cheers mate!

Wd Drumb!

Well done Tom, well deserved mate.
