Finally it’s Terrific Tuesday and Kent Speedway’s new race night debuts with the first-ever SGB Championship fixture at Central Park, Kent TouchTec Kings versus Glasgow Tigers – 6.30pm start time tonight (Tuesday 8th. June).
For the Kings’ it’s the long-anticipated Central Park debut of Scott Nicholls and Kent’s seven-times British Champion will have a busier night as will his team mates with the news that cover for the currently side-lined (with a shoulder injury) Cameron Heeps will be the utilisation of the Rider Replacement facility – whereby the missing Aussie’s rides will be shared out amongst his team mates.
The Number 8 race jacket will be worn by Kent Royals’ brilliant teenager Jake Mulford, fresh from qualifying for his first GB Under 21 Final having taken second place in Sunday’s semi final at Mildenhall.
Glasgow are led by another former British Champion and Speedway Grand Prix rider in Craig Cook.
