Australia 2008/2009

[Adder]

Be thankful! 9 hour drive tomorrow, 5 hour one Wednesday to complete and get to Mildura! Mind you we are going to the Barrossa too!

 

Could be worse, we had a blanket of snow over Swindon this morning. A most unwelcome start to the new working year having to navigate that on the way to work.

Kadina long track South Australia, sunday 25th Jan held at the kadina show grounds about 600meters long I think.

Its a once off event I think there was on there about 10 years ago.Should be a few names people may know from the past and present.

Taken from the Gillman web site;

 

 

 

Former Gillman Speedway Clerk of the Course, and current assistant track curator, Seane Chapman, is on the road to recovery following his heavy crash at the Kadina long track meeting in South Australia last Sunday.

 

Chapo spent a lot of time at the track last week, helping to prepare for the meeting, only to then miss most of it following a crash in practice.

 

He fell in turn four and was thrown back first against the colourbond fence.

 

He was initially taken to the local hospital, then flown to Adelaide where he was found to have a fractured coccyx.

 

He was able to go home yesterday (Thursday) and, although still in a lot of pain, has started the slow road to recovery. Which means he'll miss the enjoyment of driving the water truck ag Gillman in 40+ degree heat!

 

In his absence, the main event at Kadina, the Aussie Speedway Imports Long Track Super Cup, was won by Rory Schlein from Jason Stewart, Tim Heffernan and Tom Hedley.

 

The race, the last of a 57 event programme was declared after Jake Anderson fell and damaged the safety fence. Fortunately he was not injured.

 

The other major category, the 500cc Speedway class was won by Robert Ksiezak from Arlo Bugeja, Nigel Sadler, Sam Masters and Damien Koppe.

 

16-year-old Speedway rider Todd Kurtz dominated the up to 450cc FTX class and won the final from Rowan Tegart and former International Speedway rider Nathan Simpson; while Simpson won the over 450cc FTX class from David Footner and Shane Schutz.

 

 

 

[Bryn]

I don't know if anyone on here is is contact with Seane BUT, just in case they are, please pass on my very best wishes to him for a swift, and very importantly FULL recovery.

 

[rebelknight]

hope seane gets better soon

Poole and Davies are 16, I think Masters is 17, Skidmore is about 18, not really 100% about the rest but Anderson is Under 21, Shields and Taylor aren't.
