·         Hawks finest hour – we stuffed them good and proper !!!

 

·         First time Hawks are at full strength … and it showed !!! Kingsway also at full strength

 

·         Brian Gilliland, unbeaten until Dick beat him in the nominated heat, was all that stood between Kingsway and a rout

 

·         David Norrie twice excluded for crossing the inside line – once while going down the straight !!!

 

·         Billy Campbell only Kingsway rider other than Brian Gilliland to win a heat , and only after he had crumped Ronnie Young

 

·         Hawks all round superiority born out by every rider in 1-6 winning at least one heat

 

·         MOM – THE ENTIRE TEAM !!!
