Arlington Stadium, Eastbourne racing is SAVED!

First of all, we would like to thank the Dugard family for trusting Spedeworth Motorsports to have a full lease on the stadium.

We met the Dugard family today and have come up with an agreement for a lease on the stadium, but the stadium cannot re-open until all of the remedial work required at the venue is completed.

This is obviously going to cost a lot of time and money. We are aware that people have offered to do a GoFundMe page and this would be appreciated.

Once we have the list of work that needs to be done we will be writing a press release to ask any companies which do any type of the work that may need to be done to help us out.

This information is all we can release at this stage but the good news is racing at Arlington Stadium, Eastbourne will return!

Hoosier would like to make all drivers aware that they will not be in attendance this coming Saturday at Foxhall Heath Stadium, Ipswich but will be in attendance at Aldershot Raceway on Sunday.

Thank you.

Packed out stadiums, edge of your seat action and unbelievable machinery, the curtain came down on BWS for 2026 at Smeatharpe on Saturday night.

The sport so many doomsayers love to speak negatively about has once again delivered the greatest run of National Banger events in many years. Saturday alone proved the popularity, with the bumper crowd not let down by the drivers putting on another excellent showing.

Every single round has created such huge interest on both sides of the fence, with drivers becoming superheroes in the Entertainer's League - getting unprecedented attention every time they have taken to the BWS stage - as well as drivers piloting their way through the carnage to claim those all-important World Final spots in the Wildcard.

Our thanks goes to everyone for their support on both sides of the fence for making this year's BWS such a memorable one for all of the right reasons.

National Banger wise, don't forget the 348 Testimonial at Mildenhall and Unlimited Veteran's Day at Hednesford this August Bank Holiday - both expected to be featuring names from the past and present - as well as the big one, Unlimited National Banger World Final night at Ipswich. Tickets are on sale now.
