Expand He looked very fast today. Was excluded in one race when he and Ben Morley tangled crossing the line. He certainly wasn't afraid of taking the high line around bends 3 and 4. He's definitely one to follow, wherever he's riding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand At this moment in time there is no time set on how long before he returns. After a conversation with him today he is eager to know timescales but he is under no illusions that regardless of his desire to ride he won't be rushed back as at 15 his career should he have one is all in front of him 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The crash was 100% down to what we would consider to be the poorest lap he's put in since his 125 days the 3 previous laps were very good . no fault of scunthorpe speedway or the facilities there. There's nothing to imagine so let's not stir up another campaign as there already one happening on Facebook 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds85 Posted April 19, 2023 Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Please shoot me down if I'm wrong, but watching the videos of Workington. It looks a beautiful set up, big, fast, wide open track... But am I the only one who's worried that it looks like it's going to be another dust bowl...? I am not getting at any of the lads and lasses who have worked extremely hard to get it open, it's just a little concerning that's all... Please tell me I'm wrong if I am and it will be set up differently for race days... 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
