Only Managed to catch that last 10 or so Laps of this one as I had to get my car from WP to the Springs.... plenty of parking though! and a GREAT TRACK!
Mosen Coons Allach Pickens
Huge crowd and were on the edge of their seats for the last half a dozen laps and Mosen the crowd favourite showed great guns taking his very first 50 Lapper crown!

Giddaye Aaron,
You missed a cracker mate.
It was, without doubt one of the best races I've ever seen, and I've been going to speedway for 50+ years.
Mosen took the lead early fought through yellows, lapped traffic, being passed by Jerry Coons and still managed to hang on for the win.
It was a drive that showed this kid has arrived ... He totally took the gloss off Pickens on the night and displayed an amazing sense of patience and maturity.
One of the pleasing things to see was during the final caution, Shaun Insley (1nz) on the infield giving the big pumped fist and with his other hand holding up four fingers to indicate the laps to go to Mosen.
It was a very emotional win and the HUGE crowd (one of the biggest I've seen for many years) getting right into the occasion standing and shouting Mosen home for the win.
Meanwhile on the dark side of the force, there are a variety of rumours circulating through the pits and bars that the Council have the knives out for speedway at theSprings.
Stay tuned.
