Cameron Heeps


Recommended Posts

His gating needs working on though its awful at the moment, but he's a racer no doubt about that. With the greatest respect to to Mildenhall's track, i think he'll be better suited to bigger tracks where he can open up the throttle and attack more. I'm looking forward to seeing him on the wider bends at Foxhall. Maybe when he turns 16 at the tail end of the season he may be brought in as Ipswich #8 and given a few rides just as Blackbird and Jacobs have. Particularly if as seems likely, we've nothing to ride for by then.

 

Cant agree that Cameron Heeps is an awful gater, he looked quite capable at Mildenhall Sunday of out gating many riders. He has been brought up on smallish tracks so Mildenhall is no problem. Think his 16th birthday is on October 27th so will never be Witches No8 this season worse luck. Ive watched him riding the Foxhall track after the meeting and he goes wide for the grip and looks superb with his great style. Think he will be Witches new No6 next season and watch him go and soon be in the team proper.

As mentioned by other posters, let's not get on the lad's back and expect too much, too soon. He's clearly a talent (Ty Proctor was raving about him last season when he came over for second-half rides) and is also very pleasant (as is his dad, who I spoke to last year and at Lynn the other week). But easy does it. Give him time.

Well Montie, you've certainly ruffled a few feathers with your Heeps to Sheffield hints :lol:

 

Chris Louis done his weekly speedway interview on radio suffolk this evening and the presenter Stephen Foster put to Chris the rumours doing the rounds on the BSF! that Cameron Heeps was Sheffield bound next season (although i'm not sure how referee Chris Durno got mixed up with it all as the source of them :unsure: )

 

Chris stated he was aware of the rumours and called Chris Durno personally who was on holiday and knew nothing about it.

 

Chris Louis stated that Cameron would obviously be in demand and will make up his own mind, but in his words he thinks the lad is courted by every Premier and Elite league club in the country but he "fully expects Cameron to be lining up with Ipswich in the Premier league next season".

 

I guess that also puts to bed any potential rumours that Ipswich could look to move back up to the Elite league.

 

I'm not very good at links, but i know Badge is a dab hand in that department and will probably post a link to that interview in full at some point.

Question for anyone in the know ! if Heeps is now out for a while, will Mildenhall be able to get a guest rider in ? If after the isle of white meeting he was going to move to say number 1? can we guest a rider up to his new average ? or how does that all work ?
