"If you are so inclined to try Speedway, Just do it! Don't wait 20 years like I did! Have Fun & Research and experiment with Your setup. Maintain your gear way prior to race day. Trying too hard, usually puts a learner into the boards. Don't worry, Practice & determination will build confidence & speed. Talk to other riders and carefully watch the Smooth/experienced do their thing. Most of the time, even the slightest movement on their part, will sometimes go unnoticed on your part! Pay attention! This includes the track & conditions of the oval. Hang loose & be patience -But Have FUN!!!
See you at the track this year."
