Gary Brown and Steve Copping represented Somersham in the Grand Prix of Gt. Britain. A new competition for 2009, and open to all riders racing in the UK, it consisted of a regional qualifier followed by a finals day at East Park.
It was the Somersham pair's first appearance at this refurbished track which is in a beautiful secluded quadrant of the park. On track they found the long straights a real test of stamina and struggled to score many points, but Brown's surprise final ride win was enough for a reserve spot in the final.
The event was won by Polish star Lukas Nowacki, after beating British Champion Lee Aris in a run-off, and was deemed successful enough to warrant a re-appearance on next year's fixture list.
