One month into their new project Neil Machin and Tim Lucking signed Aussie Tony Langdon to replace the struggling Thierry Hilaire, and he helped the Tigers to their solitary away win of the season. The match didn't start so well with both Neil and Simon crashing out of heat 4 and the Tigers conceeded a further 1-5 in heat 8. From that point onwards Peter Carr rode unbeaten and received great support from his fellow heat leaders. Neil Evitts again declined the nomination for heat 15 as he continued his dispute with his new promoters who wanted to renegotiate his contract.

The Cubs lost Rob Homer who crashed out in his first ride taking no further part in the match, and indeed only managed a single victory on their way to an eleven point defeat.
