There's a chapter on last season's Weymouth v Wimbledon match in this book.

SOON to be available at all good track shops but in the meantime hot off the press copies can be ordered via paypal at <http://www.methanolpress.com> or
via post if you send a £24.50 cheque to cover P&P made payable to "J.Scott" at Methanol Press, 2 Tidy Street, Brighton BN1 4EL


About the book
Jeff Scott serves up yet another portion of methanol-inspired lunacy tosatisfy your speedway-craving appetite with his latest book

CONCRETE FOR BREAKFAST.


Scott continues to validate the sport’s authenticity as he celebrates the romance of its racing, the bravery of its competitors, and the
idiosyncrasies of its partisans on and off the track.

With his gift for location, dialogue, and the human comedy, Scott will escort you into his world of speedway.

Accompany him as he watches almost every speedway team in Britain compete. He lends you his nose as he savours the aroma of methanol, burgers, chips, stressed toilets, and excitement. From his favourite vantage point in the lee of the stadium grandstand or lost in thought on the road to (or from) yet another event behind the wheel and the wipers of his much-abused car, Scott will help you begin your own pilgrimage to speedway.

And even though there may well be CONCRETE FOR BREAKFAST for some unlucky riders whose quest for glory ends in a bruised heap of broken bones and bike, Scott will cleave the chaos for you in such a way that the event will be invariably portrayed with the charm, irreverence, humanity and compassion that informs the style of this most unique of sports’ most unique diarist.
