Hi there

 

Can anybody help me with the heat results for this meeting please ?

 

The published heat heat results in the Speedway Star don't bear any relation to number of riders scores !

 

Does anybody have a completed programme with the correct results ?

 

Thanks for reading

 

Steve.

I attended this meeting and comparing my marked programme there are a number of errors in the Speedway Star report for this meeting.

 

The amendments to the Speedway Star details are:

 

Weymouth scored 16 points not 15. Harry Maclean had 1 ride for Milton Keynes but did not score.

 

Heat 1: Time was 69.8 not 69.0.

Heat 7: Humphreys, Hollingworth, Flatman, Woodward, 68.8.

Heat 8: Maclean repaced Ashby and did not score.

Heat 9: Humphreys, Tulloch, Clark, Mallett, 69.4.

Heat 11: 68.0 not 69.0.

Heat 15: 68.0 not 67.8.

Heat 16: Hines, Humphreys, Coles, Allen (F) 68.0.

 

The team totals, riders scores and races ridden by each rider from my programme agree with the details in the 1980 Speedway Yearbook.

 

If I have done this correctly a scan of the programme can be seen at https://app.box.com/s/cem21wiyq8mq756n1pv8u5lnzpexwoo4

 

Regards.

 

Gary
