USA U21 Speedway is pleased to announce that Hagon Shocks has come on board with us and will be providing support in our endeavor. They are a tremendous asset to speedway and we appreciate that we share the same vision regarding the future of American speedway. Hagon Shocks is a very strong and visible supporter of international speedway racers including Australian National Champion and Speedway Grand Prix competitor Chris Holder, and British international racers Edward Kennett and Lee Richardson. Last year, they expanded their speedway support to include the American youth speedway program which has benefitted tremendously their efforts. 1996 World Champion Billy Hamill is in charge of their youth support program and he has conducted several academies to provide opportunities and instruction to future American speedway stars. USA U21 Speedway is proud to be associated with such an esteemed company and to join such a tremendous stable of talent. Hagon Products was founded by 11-time British Grasstrack Champion Alf Hagon in 1958 and the Hagon Shocks brand was eventually created in 1985. The business is now run by his son, Martin, himself a former racer as well. Hagon Shocks has nearly 1,000 shock applications and their products are sold worldwide. They opened a U.S. distributorship in San Marcos, California in 2010 that is headed by 1996 World Speedway Champion Billy Hamill. You can visit the Hagon Shocks websites at http://www.hagonshocksusa.com/ or http://www.hagon-shocks.co.uk/. USA U21 Speedway completely supports the efforts of the Hagon Family and Hamill via the Hagon Shocks/Billy Hamill Speedway Academy. USA U21 Speedway, particularly Gary Gomez, has been present at every Academy held at Inland Motorsport Speedway in San Bernardino and we will continue to help their effort in the future as well. Their marquee event, The Gumball Rally, will be held at IMS the weekend of March 5-6. Saturday will begin with an Academy for adults, followed by open practice, and concluding with the Big Kids’ Gumball Rally (First, Second, and Third Division). Sunday will open with an Academy for youth riders in the morning and then the prestigious Gumball Rally will begin at 1:00. Signups are open for the event and information can be obtained by calling (760) 308-8124 or via email at gumballrally2011@yahoo.com. We strongly encourage fans to support and attend this event. USA U21 Speedway would like to thank Martin Hagon, Billy Hamill, and Hagon Shocks for their support and we look forward to have a long and bright future with them. We are grateful for their help and for the opportunity to represent a company that has such a positive impact on speedway in Europe and in the United States.

Hancock gets on board with USA U21 Nine USA U21 Team Members from Southern California and three Team Members from Northern California spent five hours on the race track receiving instruction and tips about their racing technique, bike setup, and making better starts from former World Champion Greg Hancock. In addition to on-track instruction, Hancock also gave them advice about racing and life in Europe. The group was also joined by two injured Team Members who still saw the value in learning from watching and listening to Hancock give instructions to others as well as his advice about competing in Europe. Team Members who attended the event were Ricky Wells, Jason Ramirez, Gino Manzares, Bryce Starks, Ricky Felicio, Brad Pappalardo, Joey Holt, Dylan Black, Gabe Price, Brandon Leedy, Fred Cook, Joey St. Louis, and injured racers Austin Novratil and Rocco Scopellite.

American Touring Team Final Schedule
TMGracing replied to SteveEvans's topic in National League Speedway
You have to look at it as the Dream Team now Touring Team has a 5 year head start on Team Viking with a good track record in the UK.When the Dream Team first set sights on the UK it was through making friends that we ever even got to be on the shores racing at all.The British fans wanted us and we wanted to entertain them. Also you might want to check your facts as to Team Viking being superior to the Dream Team. I believe we beat them at Newcastle. -
Good luck to you guys Tim. I have always enjoyed the Weymouth track and the people surrounding it. Phil has always been great with us Americans.
