THE Thundercats are back – and will take on Team Viking in a special six-heat mini-match at the East of England Showground on Friday night.

The challenge takes place straight after the Elite League clash between fourth-placed Peterborough and play-off rivals Swindon.

Team Viking will include three highly-touted young Danish riders.

They are 18-year-old Thomas Jørgensen, who scored 15, paid 16, at National League Plymouth last Saturday and also smashed the track record; new Redcar signing Peter Juul Larsen, 19, and 17-year-old Marc Randrup.

Crowland’s 16-year-old schoolboy Tom Stokes will make his Thundercats debut along with fellow teenager Jake Knight, son of former World Finalist and ex-Panthers team manager Richard Knight.
