em1500uk Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Well done Kevin especially seeing as he was riding other peoples' bikes lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMGracing Posted November 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Kevin was allowed two laps of practice before the match started but his bike packed up about twenty meters after his practice start. What was pretty cool was this older gentlemen walked up and said would you ride my bike its never been raced since I've owned it and Kevin said sure mate. He rode Dale Facchini's bike in his second heat and then shared Tim Gomez's bike for the rest of his rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delgado Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 According to Gillman website Billy Hamill won on saturday The Thanksgiving Speedway Invitational, the first-ever Speedway event at the Mojave Crossing Event Center in Fort Mojave, Arizona, USA, with Kevin Doolan taking second place ( 13 points and top scorer after the main event). It seems that was a very interesting meeting with Mike Faria, Charlie Venegas, Scott Brant, Billy Janniro, Chris Kerr, Ryan Fisher, Dukie Ermolenko, Josh Larsen, Shawn McConnell and Bryan Yarrow also taking part in it. Here are some photos of the venue Mojave Crossing Center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice last to first in event two Kev. And digging the stubble too... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There are now 12 races to view from the event.I think his saying that it was one of his most enjoyable nights racing was during his visit.I would doubt that anything this year would touch his accomplishments at KL.
