Birmingham Buffaloes Max Broadhurst took the honours winning all his three qualifying races then remaining unbeaten with success in the final ahead of Ryan Ashcroft and Dylan Huthwaite whilst Eli Meadows took a tumble to end his hopes of remaining unbeaten on the night. With 16 heats in total with 6 junior 125cc demos and a short delay after one of them Cody Smith crashed just before the finish line in his first ride , the pits staff did a first class and efficient job of completing this in 52 minutes !!

Well done to them for that. It's a shame more people don't stay on to watch them or have attended the NDT matches 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame more people don't stay on to watch them or have attended the NDT matches And with Birmingham closing, an invaluable section of speedway racing will disappear: reducing the ability for new British riders to progress!
