Ernie Baker was an exciting team member in the first year of the new era track inside the stock car trackĀ  Ipswich Witches back in 1969!

Sad to hear this, I recall Ernie riding for Hackney at Newport in 1965-66- heavy rain. Some guys just packed it in or didn't try too hard-but Ernie kept giving it his all through the entire meeting.

I would guess Ernie's age was somewhere in the eighyies-anyone know?

He was born on 18 August 1931. (Thank you, Matt.)
