Welland speedway championships!!

Saturday at the Niagara motorcycle raceway saw the biggest event of the speedway calender in Canada. The Canadian speedway championship sees the newest rider pitted against the seasoned, the long time established against the once a year racer. The enthusiastic crowd was treated to some of the best racing seen at the Welland track this season. With several past champions on show the cool evening was set to heat up when the riders hit the track. Jeff Orosz, Caister centre, Aaron Hesmer, Brantford, Joe heye, Langton and Chris Hesmer, Brantford were all capable of winning the final. After the early rounds all these riders had established a good collection of points and took there places in the two semi finals to send two riders from each to the grand final. Orosz, A. Hesmer, C. Hesmer and Terry Rideout lined up for the final race of the night. Orosz exploded out of the start and never looked back as the Hesmer brothers struggled for traction and speed. With the crowd on their feet Orosz crossed the line to win with Aaron and Chris Hesmer then Terry Rideout in that order. Mother nature complemented the work of the track staff with a sprinkle of rain in the hours before the races and made a good track into a great track. Thanks to all concerned. Next week sees the season finale at the track with all classes on show.

Orosz takes another final at Welland!!

Another warm summer's night welcomed a good-sized crowd to the mid season race at Welland speedway.
The night began with a field of 11 riders in both Division 1 and Division 2. Sadly Terry Rideout was forced out of the night's event due to re-injuring himself at the Paris Speedway event the previous night, and John Bennett was also holding an injury that would force him out of the racing after his first heat.
The Division 2 class began the night with Mike Hammond, John Bennett, Allan Chisholm and Gary Moody all ready to go. Mike Hammond who was still pumped up from last weekends success, pulled away from the pack and led to a good win, sadly though, John Bennett's courageous attempt to hold 2 nd place was short lived, as Gary Moody grabbed this on lap 3 and Allan Chisholm followed in closely to complete the race.
The Division 1 first round heat saw Aaron Hesmer, Joe Heye, Rob Dixon and Gary Hesmer come to the tapes. Aaron Hesmer, Gary Hesmer and Joe Heye all spread out after corner 1, Rob Dixon nursing a newly re-built engine followed up the rear at this point. Dixon pushed hard on lap 3 to grab third place off Gary Hesmer, while cousin Aaron Hesmer took a good chequered flag win!
C.J. Hesmer, Fred Legault and Jeff Orosz presented the second heat of the Division 1 racing. The race was dominated by Jeff Orosz to take the win, but behind him Legault and Hesmer duelled all race, to duck and dive under and around each other, with Hesmer coming out on top on lap 4, going under Legault to take a well-deserved second place!
Round 2 saw John Bennett withdraw from the event leaving Mike Hammond, Gary Moody and Allan Chisholm to race the Division 2 heat, with them finishing from the gate in this order.
Drama was seen at the start of the Division 1 second round, as Jeff Orosz's clutch seized at the line, leaving him to grab his back-up bike to start the heat. He left the gate ahead of Aaron and Gary Hesmer, Aaron Hesmer pushed Jeff Orosz all race, but Orosz was too strong to pass!
The race of the night was presented in the second Division 1 heat. Fred Legault, Joe Heye, C.J. Hesmer and Rob Dixon. Dixon got a flying first corner only to be passed by the pack coming out of turn 2, the pack of Hesmer, Heye and Legault were three abreast going into turn 3 and without incident, Legault took the lead ahead of Heye and Dixon manoeuvred passed Hesmer, the race proceeded with Fred Legault battling to hold off Joe Heye and Rob Dixon duplicating this with C.J. Hesmer. Joe Heye's hard charging was too much for Fred Legault and on lap 2, Heye passed on the back straight. Dixon went out of shape on lap 4 and Hesmer passed him on turn 3 to complete a fantastic race!
Mike Hammond took the Division 2 final by completing a good solid performance from the tapes, as Allan Chisholm proved his worth by taking a well-deserved second place ahead of a determined Gary Moody.
A consolation race-off between Rob Dixon and Gary Hesmer finished in that order.The ‘A' main final saw Jeff Orosz, Aaron Hesmer, C.J. Hesmer, Fred Legault and Joe Heye draw for gate positions. Orosz won the first pick and his gate proved to be the winning one! Out of the tapes Aaron Hesmer pushed Jeff Orosz as Joe Heye pushed Aaron Hesmer, a close race between these three was spoiled when Aaron Hesmer's chain came off on lap 3 leaving him to coast to a stop. Joe Heye grabbed that second place spot with Fred Legault in third and C.J. Hesmer in fourth.

Happy faces at Welland!!

A smiling Tim Murray was out and about at the Niagara motorcycle raceway in Welland on Saturday July 4th. Pictured with his wife and Kyle Legault looking on. Tim told me it was "nice to get out of the house and to see the guys!" Still some distance from full recovery, the specialists have told him it could take as much as four months for that to happen.

Good news from the G.T. tuning camp!!

Tim was released, from his enforced stay at Hamiltons Macmaster hospital, on Wednesday. He sounded bright and confident that all was progressing according to plan.

The staples, from the knee surgery, were removed at his Niagara falls home today and Tim tells me he hopes to be at the Niagara mororcycle raceway on Saturday 11th to see all his friends. Until then, he is confined to the bedroom as he "Can't do stairs too well at the moment!
