Advertised and Programmed Riders
Gillman Speedway accepts a rider’s nomination in good faith that the rider intends riding. No rider is advertised and/or programmed unless that rider has agreed to ride and has not subsequently withdrawn from the meeting prior to any advertisement or programme being printed. The promoter will always attempt to advise the public of any late changes to the rider line-up, but cannot be responsible for riders withdrawing after they have been advertised and/or programmed.

17/9/23 Two entries added on Saturday, David Lindsay/Liam Squire and John Bennett/Natural Stone, both in the Post Classic Sidecars. Former Rowley Park rider Bennett with be travelling a lazy 2700 km (each way) to ride, so no excuses for anyone else not to nominate!
