bigdave Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 Taken from the local Cumbria Crack news web site: Future speedway world champions head to Workington this weekend Workington is preparing to host the cream of the worldās top young talent with two major events over the weekend. The Comets host the FIM Track Racing Youth Gold Trophy on Saturday, followed by the European 125cc Youth Track Racing Cup on Sunday. Five of Great Britainās youngsters ā Lewis Hague, Fraser Buckle, George Climo, Douglas Marshall and Jessica Cox ā will be featuring in a multi-national line-up which includes newly crowned SGP4 champion Blake Schlein of Australia. Workington co-promoter James Denham said: āYoung Schlein is definitely a superstar, heās got everything. āItās brilliant for the club to host such a fantastic event, and to see some of the worldās youngest racers. āThese are probably future world champions on 500s, riders who will be in the GP in 10 years, so itās fantastic for the club and hopefully weāll have a few more coming down to cheer these young kids on.ā 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neila Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 Was some good racing by the young kids, and most times 63 - 65 seconds so only around 7 seconds slower than the big boys. If the forecast rain appears overnight it will be a different track tomorrow for the kids to enjoy. If anyone was thinking of going get down to watch it's very enjoyableĀ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neila Posted August 10 Report Share Posted August 10 Lots of praise from the ACU / FIM representatives of the set up at worky a bit thanks for Andrew Bain and team for getting the comets facilities to where they are now. Hopefully it's onwards and upwards till the next major meeting. Well done to the kids for trying their best on Sunday, but the Cumbrian weather unfortunately beat them rain all afternoon until 20.00 š² 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to let you know that a thread was started in May by myself for both meetings in the International section where all the FIM Europe and FIM meetings are posted( apart from GP, SWC , SON etc). We had line-ups and PPV details as well. Edited August 12 by racers and royals 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
