Such a great talented rider, heart breaking how his life ended. Gone but never forgotten Kenny you would have been a world champ for sure r i p to the greatest UK rider of his time by far
You have to admire Kenny Carters bravery in this meeting an many other meetings, in 1981 he rode with a shattered jaw wired up to qualify for that years British final, i watched Kenny at Hull and Halifax from when he was 16 and he was always a hard charging brave rider, but unfortunately he had an unstable personality that resulted in the terrible tragedy that i can never forgive him for.......
Pretty amazing feat considering what he was up against.All the other stuff is not about speedway and is between him and God. Thank You Martyn for another classic.
What a amazing achievement he would been world champion numerous times for sure , his courage is unbelievable riding with broken leg he sorts the men from the boys for sure 👍❤️
Had to laugh when Dave Lanning referred to Martin Yeates as "the young man from Wiltshire"!! He was 31 at the time and as many speedway fans will know, had been riding for years :)
Penhall never touched him in 1982 World Final....... Carter robbed his whole family of life..... He doesn't deserved any sympathy for not winning a World Title.... he was a coward.
If Kenny Carter had not killed himself after killing his wife his career would have been over immediately he was arrested and would as of 2020 still be in prison serving a life sentence for murder with no parole
Great Rider. Tragic life but he definitely made his mark in Motorcycle Speedway history.

His life? How about his innocent wife and orphaned child?
@@stevenmeyer9674 very sad for the whole family devastating even but this channel is about speedway ect
What a professional he was. So tragic what happened and so bad.
Astonishing rider. Surely he was one of the greatest speedway riders that ever slung a leg over a bike.
saw Carter ride many times when he was at Newcastle, GREAT TALENT !
Well done Kenny. The track was diabolical for everyone!

Kenny Carter is a Speedway Legend,dedication at its most powerful.
A great motorcycling family, Alan and Kenny.
i was there - remarkable performance, still my fave English rider.
A great speedway rider with a great will to win seen him late 1979 for racing for Halifax at the old Hyde Road belle Vue track very entertaining .
Saw him begin his career at Newcastle. .a brilliant talent
Inspired beyond belief .
Legend, respect
a great talent but as some say there is a fine line between brilliance and madness
What a amazing achievement he would been world champion numerous times for sure , his courage is unbelievable riding with broken leg he sorts the men from the boys for sure 👍❤️
This should be bigger in North America..This is a real race.
Epic racing from carter, amazing how the track changed from water logged to dry and slick,

Rob Tatum definitely Leigh Adams as well

I was there ,brilliant meeting started like it was gonna be called off then the racing got better !! Track drying out great night
I love speedway. Great fun.
AS BRILLIANT AS IT GETS The last heat was shitorbust I guess a sprocket change and full throttle Mauger Magic BRILLIANT
I thought this was going to be about Peter Collins in the 1977 World Final...
I was lucky enough to see him race at Halifax and for too short a time at Bradford. Penhall robbed him of a world title though.

Carl Maestre ur a idiot
Penhall never touched him. I’m a Halifax and Bradford Dukes fan.
