Neil Machin is one of Britain's most prolific Speedway Promoters, running speedway clubs for over 28 years, largely the force behind Sheffield Speedway and more recently at Leicester.

Over 90 minutes he talks to Ian Brannan about his first visit to watch speedway, striking up a friendship with Rob Woffinden ( & latterly becoming Tai's Godparent) taking over a broke Sheffield and turning them into league champions, giving Tai Woffinden his first pro meeting on his 16th birthday, and much more.
