After investing $40K in stainless steelwork in his leg, he doesn't want to do anything that would risk further damage. Coming back? No. What would it take to bring him back? Open up at least 3 more tracks in South California!

Gary Roberts : "This is a picture I took after the 1999 AMA National at Auburn. Left to right, 5 ex-junior Speedway riders, Josh Larsen, Greg Hancock, Jessee Finch, Billy Hamill, Ryan Evans and Junior Speedway supervisor, Bill Hancock. Billy Hamill is looking happy cos he just won the National. But there is a large ice-pack on his left hand which kept him out of racing for a month after this night."
