SPEEDWAY NEWS AND FIXTURES
23 August 2005 - British Speedway Promoters Association

SCUNTHORPE promoter Rob Godfrey has lent his support to neighbours Hull in their quest to find a suitable venue for 2006.

Godfrey has urged Vikings fans to show that they want speedway to continue by turning out in big numbers for the rest of the season. He said: ''Moving and having your own stadium is the best way forward. We decided we''d be better off putting money into our own place.''

HOSTS Rye House will have two representatives in the Conference League Riders'' Championship, which takes place at Hoddesdon on Saturday. Highly experienced riders such as Wayne Carter and Mark Burrows will be joined by several of the best up-and-coming talents in the country. The Raiders will be represented by Steve Boxall and Harland Cook, with all Conference tracks having at least one rider taking part.
