Sheffield's James Birkinshaw was the most welcome visitor to Owlerton
on Sunday. Out of hospital and already itching to get back into the
saddle he was the non-riding captain. As the Hitmen were also missing
the injured James Mann both clubs operated rider replacement in their
absences.
Malcolm Carter had a nightmare afternoon. He sped straight through
the tapes in heat 1, fell whilst third in heat 6 and then suffered a
suspected broken leg, just above the right ankle, whilst trying an
outside pass around Lee Smethills in heat 8. Jamie Young also fell
first time out but recovered to feature in two Sheffield 5-1's.
Matt Cambridge was gifted 2nd place in heat 3 when Neil Painter fell
on the last turn, just as Danny Hodgson's bike spluttered to a halt.
After that Matt found the pace just a little too hot. Adam Allott
looked unbeatable until he missed the start badly in heat 13 and then
seemingly gave up?
Lee Hodgson replaced Malcolm Carter in heat 1 and surprised everyone
by speeding to the front. He never looked like being caught until his
bike stopped entering the final lap. He went on to win his next two
rides before he started to tire. Quite an auspicious debut for young
Lee.
Star of the Prowlers though must be Andrew Moore. Yet to learn how to
gate virtually every one of Andrew's points were earned from the
back, and there were 15 of them!
The Hitmen looked very strong on paper but somehow it just didn't
work out with Lee Smethills their only heat winner. Dean Felton was
very poor value given his experience and only Neil Painter gave any
back-up. Next weeks return fixture at Buxton should be a thrilling
second leg.

Gary Hicks overcame a rough track to take the victory in the Scratch Main
Event as Costa Mesa kicked off what could be its final season in front of a
large crowd with the annual Coors Light Spring Classic. Hicks and Bobby
Schwartz gated together and were side by side as they entered turn three.
Hicks stuck to the low line leaving Schwartz out wide to battle the massive
ruts in the track. Hicks sped away with an easy victory. Charlie Venegas
and Northern California rider Chad Felicio managed to get by Schwartz for
second and third respectively. Schwartz ended up fourth and Shawn McConnell
finished fifth.
Charlie Cooley took an easy victory in the Handicap Main as he led all eight
laps and was never seriously challenged. Ryan Fisher had a circuitous
journey to end up second. Fisher was in second after the first lap, then was
passed by several riders. After several laps in fifth place, he worked his
way back up to second as he took the white flag, but he didn't have enough
time to catch Cooley who looked very smoothe considering the condition of the
track. Randy DiFrancesco finished third ahead of Felicio and Charlie Venegas.
Veteran rider Danny Perkins, who returned to speedway last year after a long
layoff, was the victor in the Support Main Event. Perkins, starting from the
20 yard line, worked his way past Mike Lupo and ran away from the field.
Lupo, who didn't race in 1999, held on to second place and Billy Lyons
finished third.
Howard Larson won the Support B Main Event in his speedway debut. Fellow
newcomer Rod Lenz finished second and veteran Mike Boyle finished third.
There were several riders who made the trip from Northern California, but the
most unique visitor was Bevan Compton from South Africa. Compton, who has
been in the United States competing in ICE series couldn't pass up the
opportunity to race at the world famous venue. However, Compton had a hard
time adjusting to the small track and didn't transfer out of either heat.
The track was rough all evening with several holes developing in turns three
and four. The holes forced most riders to two-wheel into the corner to avoid
crashing. The circumstances made for some very interesting and unpredictable
racing throughout the evening and left many riders picking themselves of the
ground and even more shaking their heads. Fortunately, there were no
injuries.
