Notes – season files The full season files we have compiled have been collated from Speedway Publications, magazines, books and programmes. These files list the heat details of every (known) UK official meeting raced during that particular season and also attempt to correct the many errors that have been published in the Speedway press and various publications for that season. The points scorers in the official league and KO Cup fixtures should (in the vast majority of cases) correspond with the official averages published at the end of the season, together with any fixture(s) where the result was amended following an appeal to the SCB. We tried to remove as many errors as possible and of course some will remain. The authors will be delighted to hear of “genuine” mistakes and any missing information ie, race times, “missing” christian names, unreported tapes/2 minutes exclusions, etc. Steve Wilkes/Gary Done E-mail: [email protected]

r/r rides were disqualified and placings upgraded. Revised scorers - Exeter: Peter Ingram 9, Bruce Cribb 7, Bob Kilby 6, Chris Julian 6.

Swindon: Clive Hitch 7, Pete Munday 6, Mike Keen 5, Mike Broadbank 1.
