Jake WARD 44 Racing was one of the favorites for the title this year but a late season injury put out of contention not for the series but the national champs.

Its been a great year Pro-Elite with more riders then ever before racing, we have lost a few during the year to injuries, A mention for Scott Beaumont who only competed in 2 rounds this year due to injury so will have a point to prove this weekend and will racing flat out for the win and Steve Simms who knocked himself out at the World Cup and still on the road to recovery.
