It doesn't matter if we know riders names or the locations, I just want to share pics of uprights still in action in 2026.
So riders, spectators, photographers and anyone else send me pics and I'll think up a catchy hashtag for a weekly feature or something

2026 is roughly 30 years since uprights were cast aside for the sake of evolution. We all know the #UprightRevival won't happen BUT.
There seems to be a lot of very nice uprights being ridden on the amateur scene so I'm going to tweet pics of modern day uprighters having fun

In this week's SPEEDWAY STAR... our BACKTRACKING column features current Belle Vue favourite Connor Mountain and his dad Andy, who have built a superb replica of Erik Gundersen's 1987 white/orange GM.
Erik is impressed with the result.

@UprightSpeedway That's a shame, it's Erik's orange set up from 87. I'm building a replica! Almost there 👍😁
