GENEROUS speedway fans raised a bumper amount for Cobras rider Lee Strudwick at Saturday's Rye House Rockets meeting.

The collection on behalf of Kart Raceway Cobra Strudwick banked the amazing figure of �530.90.

A spokesman for Rye House said: “On behalf of Lee, a big 'thank you' to all who gave.”
