Stomp are happy to now announce that they are now participating in a new motor cycling discipline in the form of junior speedway racing.
Though we do not build a complete Jr Speedway bike, we can build however good fast and strong engines to suit this application.
This year with the help of one of our dealers Dave Wicks M/C of Kings Lynn we have been helping British U15 Junior speedway rider Lewis Whitmore.
Lewis this year has certainly showed what he can do on the shale circuits and is also gathering a lot of attention from the speedway world. This including ex British World speedway champion Gary Havelock.
He recently had a hard thought British 125cc championship race meeting at Eastbourne Speedway
Lewis rode some very hard and well thought race’s taking win’s from the back in all is qualifying heats to make through to the main final where after some hard racing from the back see him get all the way up to 2nd place only to take a fall.
Though he got back up and finished he only claimed the 4th place but this still scored him some valuable championship points.
PHIL Morris(Under 15 British Team Captain) has described the inaugural British 125cc Youth Championship last weekend as a “fantastic night of racing.”
The event was staged at Eastbourne following the Eagles’ KO Cup semi-final against Poole, and after a successful night Morris feels it will now have a regular place on the calendar.
Henry Atkins took the honours, going through the card unbeaten in qualifying races and Final, with Jack P Blackburn and Ben Woodhull also on the rostrum and Lewis Whitmore in fourth place.
Morris said: “It was a fantastic night of racing on a track that was very wet due to persistent rain throughout the twelve heats. The rain only eased for the Final.
“Henry was a very deserving winner as he won all of his heats and the big Final which counted. Jack was second and has improved beyond recognition, and Ben had another solid meeting and was always in line for a podium place.
“Lewis is a very intelligent rider who has already got a fantastic racing brain by using outside swoops and cut-back moves to pass riders after his bad starts.
“We would like to thank the BSPA for sanctioning the event, Eastbourne for running it, and Wessex Marina for sponsoring it. Everyone voted it a great success, and I’m sure this will definitely now be an annual event.”
Our help for Lewis is only in the form of supplying his engine and with a lot of help from one of our dealers Dave Wicks Motorcycles of Kings Lynn.
So a very big well done to you both and we will all be hoping for some silver ware at the end of the year.
