Guest Jim Blanchard Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Going through my archives the other night I found these photo's of Scott Autry that I had taken at Kings Lynn. I have quite a few more in black and white too. He was a very good rider if I remember right and seemed an amiable sort of a guy. Whatever happened to him? Is he still part of the speedway scene in the USA? Pictures Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norbold Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Nice pictures Jim. Scott was a good rider and crowd pleaser. I think sandman might still be in touch with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandman Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 I think sandman might still be in touch with him. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nah, he visited the ol Bar Grill and Bait Shop when I was still in biz a few years back and had the gall to call my establishment a "Pig Stye". So I says to him if you think this is cool ya outta see my boat. He looked at me like I had two heads. Stuck up he was.. He got a view of Ganja Bill sittin in the corner sippin a cold one whilst sharpenin his knife, and decided it was time for a hasty exit.. Yeah, we would have shown him true team work if he had stayed a few minutes longer.. Now, Phil Collins is cool.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
