John (Campbell) phoned at the weekend and we organised things. With speedway the way it is we have to find a happy medium. I was keen to have everything sorted out by Christmas.I have the same pits crew for next season, my dad and Mark. It will be a busy season, were ready for thatas long as I dont have Edinburgh Friday, Eastbourne Saturday and Glasgow Sunday!(SPEEDWAY 2)

SOMERSET have completed the line-up for the Christmas Cracker meeting at the Oaktree Arena on Friday December 28.2012 Rebels rider Claus Vissing will be joined by British Under-21 Champion Joe Haines, Edinburgh skipper Derek Sneddon and Newcastles new recruit Andrew Tully.Co-ordinator Garry May said: We now have all 16 riders confirmed and I think it looks to be a decent line-up when you consider the fairly limited availability you have with riders during the winter break.We are looking to put on a number of other attractions, such as a collectors fayre and vintage speedway bikes, as well as the meeting itself. We are also having the Men In Black racing their vintage bikes at various stages throughout the main meeting, plus we are hoping to have some pit-bike racing ahead of the actual Cracker meeting getting underway, so we should have just about something for everyone.
