Notice on British Speedway website, Frazer hasnt been given an average. Anybody know what it may be?

If you mean on the statistics page I'd guess it's because he hasn't raced any meetings over here yet so won't have a rolling average. When the first green sheet is out he'll have his assessed average on that

He starts on a 5.00 average (see last line here):

Hark !!   I hear the sound of a speedway bike coming from Northside !  I am sure this is the 2nd day running too. 

Hmm...any idea who it is ?

Good publicity for the Comets with 25-30 under 16 kids, boys and girls with a GB academy training event, Tom Brennen and Leon Flint helping out. Also a good few minutes on local ITV border news, interviewing couple of the kids, Tom Brennen,  Neil Vatcher and Andrew Bain . Maybe someone clever can post a link

A great two days of training for British riders , (30/32 ) well done to all the track staff and management for hosting  this event along with Neil Vatcher and the GB youth training.

The future looks bright for British speedway going by this event where all the riders seem to learn so much over the two days and got in so much track time.

Substantial damage caused at GT Tyres Arena due to storm 

Unfortunately, the Workington Comets GT Tyres Arena has suffered substantial damage from the high winds this weekend causing damage to the pits roofing and structure. 

As the Supporters Club we are looking to reach out to our amazing fans, sponsors or local businesses for any assistance they can provide at this time.

With the 2025 season fast approaching  this is a major set back in preparations for the club as they are currently working on improvements to the GT Tyres Arena and the damage caused will create a set back both financially and in time. 

Anyone who wishes to help out please contact ourselves or the club via social media or by the email address below...

info@workingtoncomets.com

Thanks,
Team WCSC 
 

Go fund page set up, will try and sort a link, but look on comets supporters club Facebook for details

Fantastic effort on the Go fund me page raising money to help the club after the recent storm damage to the pit area. The running of the club won’t be cheap anyway let alone these setbacks so it’s great to see people helping out financially and going down the track to offer help.

Remember Andrew and the promotion own and run this club but it’s the fans club too so let’s support them on and off track!

Already excited for the season to start.

 

Give us a C !!!
