The countdown begins for the Vortex Hammers

With just fourteen days to go until top League Speedway action returns to the Arena Essex Raceway, the Vortex Lakeside Hammers are getting set for the new season.

The Vortex Hammers Co Promoter Jon Cook commented: “This is one of the most eagerly awaited seasons ever with an exciting new race format plus the introduction of British youngsters at reserve and our final preparations have already begun in earnest.

The team will be returning to action over the next ten days before gathering together for our Press and Practice Day on Tuesday 25th March followed by our away challenge at Poole on the Wednesday before we race at our Raceway in Elite League action here on Friday 28th against the Swindon Robins.”

More information will be released early next week regarding the timing schedule for the Press and Practice Day.
