Big night in New York state!!

"It was a great crowd and a fun night. Unfortunately Casey Donholt, Adam Mittl and Gene Bonsignore, who were all expected to be front runners, suffered some real bad luck with equipment breakdowns and that changed the scope of the results but a big shout out to Russ Cornell, one of the best people in speedway who made it to the A-Final and was fourth. Jerry Harman also suffered with equipment trouble. Congrats to Ronnie Kemp won won the meeting with a victory over Shawn McConnell in the final. Tim Jackson won the Pro ATV. I may be off one position on Holden and Hawkins and Clark and Donholt, going from Memory but pretty sure that was right. A-Main Kemp McConnell T. McBride Cornell B-Main Mittl Brookes Hawkins Holden C-Main Bonsignore Clark Donholt Harman ."

McConnell has good night again!!

1st Place: Charlie Venegas, 2nd Place: Shawn McConnell,(pictured left from a previous event) 3rd Place: Kelly Kerrigan

In the brand new Town Toyota Centre in Wenatchee, Californian, Charlie “The Edge” Venegas won tonight’s Meeting and was also crowned the 2009 XiiR / AMA Champion.
This was Charlie’s 3rd Championship and afterwards admitted “This was a tough series, at the beginning we had the British League stars Paul Cooper and Ben Hopwood and then when they had to return home for League action there, Shawn “Mad Dog” McConnell joined and made it tough along with the ongoing challenge of the British Bulldog and Series co-Promoter, Anthony Barlow. I am extremely pleased with this win as I am not getting any younger even though there are still a few years to go before I am as old as McConnell”.
McConnell meanwhile has made it clear that in 2010 he wants to be in from the start and promises to challenge Venegas and Barlow all the way and show that even at 50 years old there is life in the old dog.
From the very first heat Venegas made his intentions clear as he brilliantly outgated Shawn McConnell and in doing so relegated his nearest challenger, Anthony Barlow to last place.
The second qualifying heat resulted in a good win for Kelly Kerrigan who easily beat Meldrum, Warburton and Martinez.
In the second round of qualifying heats it was McConnell who saw off his 3 Californian challengers (Venegas, Kerrigan and Martinez) in his second ride although a second place for Venegas was enough to put him through to the Main Final and to put the pressure on Barlow.
The Bulldog responded in the next heat by winning from James Mann, David Meldrum and Ben Warburton, even though the win was only good enough to give him pole position in the Last Chance from which he qualified to the Main behind 3 Californians on the Front Row and it was again Venegas who rode superbly well for all 6 laps to hold off the close attention of McConnell.

Legault to have surgery in U.K.next week!!

All may not be lost for courageous Canadian Kyle Legault in his battle to keep his 2009 season alive. The former Canadian National Champion has travelled back to Sheffield to see Dr Simon Royston about his troublesome leg injury he sustained last year while racing for Birmingham.
“The rod in my leg has bent, but that isn't unusual with this type of injury – that's normal - because it's a load-bearing problem. This has happened over a period of time, and because it's bent it's preventing the bone from bonding together,” he explained.
“I'm going to have another operation, have that rod removed and another bent rod will be put in, but bending the opposite way to straighten the bone. It will take two weeks before I can train again, so I'm hoping to be back on a bike in three months. At the end of the season we'll see about having the rod removed altogether.”
Legault is remaining in England to have the operation on 14 April and then he begins another period of training and physio to be able to ride again this season. But the 23-year-old stressed that this time there won't be any heroics to get back on a bike in time for the Grand Prix qualifier.
“I haven't given up on riding again this season, but I'm not going to rush to get back. Hopefully I've got a long career ahead of me, so I want to take my time because when I finish racing I want to be able to walk okay.”
Royston was the doctor who treated Legault when he broke his wrist in the Grand Prix Challenge meeting in 2007. He was also instrumental in Kyle's headline-making comeback last season, but it seems that the original operation carried out in Birmingham wasn't quite up to the standard required of an international sportsman.
“This has been the problem, as he explained it to me at the time: they opened me up and fixed me with duct tape!” said Legault.
Sounding more upbeat than he has for some time, he hasn't ruled out riding for Poole again.
“Obviously it's disappointing for me, and for Poole, and they have a business to run, but I'd like to think that my career at Poole isn't over,” he said. “Right now, though, I'm focusing on getting my leg fixed, getting fit and hopefully being able to race again in two to three months' time.”
