  • Volume 4 No.3
    The Speedway Researcher Promoting Research into the History of Speedway and Dirt Track Racing Volume No. 4 . No. 3 December 2001 Edited by Graham Fraser and Jim Henry Subscribers : 200 We welcome articles on modern or post war venues and start this edition with an item about a hazy Midlands venue which flourished in the late 1940s and early 1950s. THE TRACK AMONGST THE TREES Part 1 : The First Two Seasons Philip Pike has penned an article about the post war Midlands venue, Tamworth and in this edition we cover the first two seasons 1947 and 1948. The article will be completed in the next edition. If you drive along the A5 through Fazeley towards Nuneaton, on the right hand side of the road you will see some houses set behind some trees. This is where the Tamworth speedway track was situated, close to Drayton Manor, which was at one time the home Sir Robert Peel who founded the police force. Set amongst the trees the Deer Park Stadium exuded a friendly ambience that was, at the time, missing from those tracks located in an urban setting. The track measured 352 yards and the team for the opening 1947 season were known as “The Hounds.” The race jacket (which was the subject of much debate in The Speedway Researcher) had a red greyhound in full flight on top of blue and white halves. The promoter was former rider Arthur “Westy” Westwood who appointed Australian Steve Langton as team captain. Langton had raced in Britain in the pre-war days turning out for Lea Bridge, Hackney Wick and Birmingham.

Jack and Norman Parker scored a since Volume 1 No.1 and the manifesto. OK, We’ve probably not combined total of 33 of Clapton’s total. At Wimbledon on 24 June achieved all we set out do but maybe we should do a review once we Clapton began well to lead 18 – 17 after five heats, But Vic Huxley and end Volume 10 and revise the manifesto for the next 10 years?
