So? can you help? email me at jskinner06@btinternet.com Lets get ready to rumble!!!!

No Problem Tsunami... Remember Peter with his socks turned over the top of his boots and a billowing white silk scarf. The guy was always well turned out and had a great cornering style. Have you looked at the photos yet? My favourites are the 6 shots of him as a novice falling off and the one of him climbing the starting gate with Mike Parkers tie in his hand. God knows what was going on there New Zealand is special to us in Newcastle and I am sure Peter had plenty ex diamonds over in Kiwiland to talk to

Yes Dave still lives locally but down Teeside way. He had a tragedy in his family when his son was badly injured trials riding and is now in a wheelchair. The History Site relies on the memories and pictures etc that fans and riders have collected. If you want to contribute just send me an email jskinner06@btinternet.com

Peter is still alive he lives in New Zealand now and has just been in touch with me with some excellent pics from his career check it out at http://www.newcastlespeedwayhistory.co.uk/...part%20four.htm
