Andy Grahame v Kenny Carter, a British Title

1982 saw Andy Grahame triumph over Kenny Carter, Michael Lee and his Brother Alan to win the biggest title of his career. Dave Lanning commentates.

Beautiful to have a reminder how good Peter was in his day. My parents used to take me and my two sisters to see bell vue aces in the early to mid seventies. The atmosphere the smell and Peter Collins doing what he did best has stuck with me as it was only yesterday, the sport of real men

I know exactly what u mean about the unique smell of a speedway event, I used to go every meeting at Hyde Road in the early 80’s with my dad & brother. PC was still a legend then & along with Chris Morton, they were my heroes & I really miss that era. Great times.

You’ll never beat the smell and noise of those bikes . My brother used to take me down the shay in Halifax to watch kenny carter when I was a kid .

Brings back memories as I had travelled down from Stoke for the meeting.

Looks like the position your in at the first turn., that's the position you stay in the entire race. In most races.
