No help to your query but the plrc at Bradford in 95 or 96. I think I am rembering this right... that Chris Louis was leading the final and got an engine failure. Can anyone confirm this or is it something I have dreamt? 

Sure that’s right not sure  which year ,would guess 96 as Sam Ermolenko won and wasn’t at Wolves that year, Sheffield?

Chris was within a 100 yards of the finish line in the final when his engine went big time. He was leading by the proverbial mile and had been the best and most entertaining rider all night. But that's speedway! Remember that Sam was very gracious in victory saying that he was lucky to win. IF the engine had hung on a few more seconds it would have been the first time that a father and son had  won the BLRC, with JL winning it in '79 (with a stunning last ride taking Penhall from the back!)
