Eastbourne Eagles will be lighting up the track in red and silver this season.

That is the colour scheme chosen for Eagles' new away strip.

The Arlington outfit will become the first Elite League club to use a change kit when the new campaign starts later this month.

Co-promoter Jon Cook said: "Red and silver is a break with tradition, something completely different.

"We've looked at the combinations our manufacturers put forward and we hope this one makes an impression."

Mark Loram has joined Eagles' riders for practice sessions at Arlington.

Loram will ride for Ipswich this season but is likely to guest for Eagles in Friday meetings when Nicki Pedersen is on Grand Prix duty.

Meanwhile, Eastbourne are still searching for a main sponsor.

Cook said: "There is not a lot of money around so I'm not taking it too much as a personal kick in the teeth."
