And it is now with great sadness that we watch this clip in memory of Nigel Pearson who has sadly died. Truly the voice of speedway, with many iconic moments like this. RIP Nigel. You will be missed.

Auburn speedway national championship sept 21 at fast Friday’s Auburn California 😃it’s the most fun you can have in life and still keep your clothes on 🏍💨
From an old Fan of Hackney Speedway back in the day this race stacks up alongside When Barry Thomas took Scoot Autry and Ivan Mauger on the last bend to win the race can still see it today glad to see there are still great racers and races !
What a race. After such a heavy thump right in the back, to then wrestling his bike on one-wheel most of the time for a well-deserved win. Fantastic stuff.
That was quite an achievement, with a broken shoulder. He got hit by a handle, right into the shoulder, that would, and did cause a fraction in the shoulder, rib-cage and maybe even something extra to the collar bones. That's why he got up so fast, when they picked him up by the arms. Just had to jog the pain away, and shrug the pieces back together. Broken shoulder/upper torso also explains wide angles, where the right hand just gives in under pressure. All and all, one an amazing ride. This Chris Harris is a whole different Baller.
Bomber is made of steel. He's such a great rider.... and such a nice guy. I had a pit walk, and had a photo with him..... he was so so so SO nice..... that night he scored a 15 point maximum.
Absolutely the definition of "manning up". Harris gets run over by his teammate, yet wins the race after the restart and an awesome battle with Holder.
No way . Nigel and Cal Are The Most Exciting SPEEDWAY PLAY BY PLAY VOICES EVER PUT TOGETHER.HEART BROKEN IS WHAT IM FEELING AND IM SURE SO IS THE REST OF THE SPEEDWAY FAMILY .WILL BE MISSED .AND YOUR LOVED BIG TIME CAL OUR BROTHER .WE WILL BE KEEPING YOU IN OUR PRAYERS .

what a bloody race that bugga was mate after getting snotted in the back by the wheel in the crash and to come back and win like that well imo bloody legend mate! good stuff mate viewer from New Zealand
such a shame since this, to lose the passion for the sport since then till 2019, as he's still relatively young compared to otheers that are still scoreing high points in the sport.
American TV or sports would NEVER show a nasty wreck like that. They would either cut it or go to commercial. Heck other countries like this show everything in slow mo!
Quite a ride. Why have inside boundary markers if they are not abided by? Noticed this on the initial start then in the race that followed. I guess it is not a violation.
Never been a Coventry fan but somebody please save Coventry speedway. Always sad to lose a track. There aren't enough as it is. Also I don't even know what to say really, but best wishes to Darcy Ward. Probably my favourite rider of all time.
