Penhall and pc had two or three match races, penhall won all convincingly.

Will dig out the programme tonight, from memory gundersen won a six man final.

Off the top of my head there were six aces (mort smith blackbird mckinna thorp ravn), two moran brothers, three collins brothers (les niel phil), gundersen, wigg, tatum dont recall the other two riders.

The other two riders were lance king and jeremy doncaster. I mis-remembered the final though, it was actually won by shawn moran (gundersen was top scorer in the heats). Penhall beat pc 3-0 with times only 2-3 seconds slower than heat winners in the meeting itself - pretty impressive when you consider he hadnt ridden a competitive meeting since 1982!

Will post full results later
