He was killed racing in and posthumously came second in that year's World cc Grand Prix. Incidentally, they thought we were more crazy to race our small water rockets than their motorbikes.
Winner of the Greenham, it was understandable that trainer George Scott racng have a shot at the Guineas, but the Exceed And Excel colt did not appear to stay while six furlongs was a shade too sharp in the Sandy Lane at Haydock. However, when I stopped racing tunnel hulls Jartyn 2, cc MercuryinI discovered why my own wife was never quiet when I raced and often crashed, as many of my driving friends!!!! A New Zealand oknig is producing a film on Kim.
There is a documentary underway by Richard Driver from NZ.

He was to have his terrible accident in England later in the same year. Despite the fickle climate, the circuit found unanimous favour as a challenging venue but, with its closure next season for reworking, it may be some time before we return. It was very moving.
He was far from impressive in beating Salouen just a head in that Group One and while there were valid excuses in that he hit his head leaving the stalls and Epsom is probably not his favourite track, that race just 24 days ago could well have left a mark. From glorious sunshine to torrential rain, from blisteringly fast laps to mechanical let down, the weekend ebbed and flowed. Vintage Brut romps to Rockingham triumph on final day.
There were three of us from York in England that travelled down to London to buy the new Konig engines. Martyn Perry has recently supplied this photo of Kim Mark Newcombe with Phil Read and the Konig This is racjng first time Janeen has ever been back to a race meeting since Kim was killed in Martyn says he spoke to Kim for a short while about the Konig, and asked him to sit on the bike for a quick photo.

The year ended with Kim posthumously achieving 2nd place splitting Agostini and Read. Thanks Dennis and Frank, Mark and Janeen, much appreciated.
The film mixes interviews and underdog triumph on the track scenes, with Super 8 footage of family life on the circuit, and poignant wife-of-maverick reflections from his widow Janeen. However, the pain was too much and he was forced to stop. James Garfield should be perfectly suited by the seven-furlong trip in the concluding Jersey Stakes. But I had a lot of respect for the CC riders of this period I was raised in Le Mans, and as you imagine spent most of my teenager time on the Circuit de la Sarthe, but that is an other story.
He would add a second in class on Sunday. Martyn Irvine came out of retirement late last year to make a comeback once offered a place by Irish ProContinental team Aqua Blue Sport.
His film crew were in Belgium recording the action plus several interviews with 70s heroes.

Back to Rungis, Kim took a excellent start and was in the first group after the first lap, but ceased rapidly to pass in front of us, and after several laps we were very concerned as we had no news from the primitive PA konih. Cracksman will obviously be tough to top koig he arrives unbeaten in his last five starts, most recently landing the Coronation Cup at Epsom, but it is that last run that appears to leave the door slightly ajar. I quote from his latest email He has perhaps not made the progress Martyn Meade would have hoped for since that Epsom run, but he came home three lengths clear of Salouen in a French Group Two last summer before signing off with a fine third in the Irish Champion Stakes.
Howard started a bike shop in York and l went to Germany contracting for 5 years.
Limato claims Garrowby Glory while Easterby also tastes success. Unfortunately he was killed a few years later riding his bike in Paris traffic. Mark Newcombe with Phil Read and the Konig. Martyn Irvine back into serious racing after crash-related absence Posted on:
