Shawn and Kelly Moran spent the majority of the highly successful speedway careers racing in the United Kingdom. Shawn's clubs included Hull, Sheffield (where he spent a total of ten years in two spells) and Belle Vue (five years). Kelly rode for Hull, Birmingham, Eastbourne, Sheffield, Belle Vue and Swindon.

They began their British careers at Hull, where they were team-mates with multi-World Champion, Ivan Mauger. Wherever they went, the brothers were two of the most colourful characters in speedway during the 1980s.

They won the world team cup twice and were prominent in the World Championship event for many years (including a first place in the Long Track Championship). They were among the first wave of Americans to race in Britain, and were instrumental in setting the standards for their fellow countrymen to follow. Written by Brian Burford, who has been a speedway supporter for over twenty years, this book includes a foreword by 1996 World Champion Billy Hamill, and is essential reading for anyone with an interest in speedway.
