PHOTOGRAPHY BY AMA PRO RACING
IF YOU'RE A FAN OF FLAT TRACK RACING, THEN YOU'RE A FAN
OF MICHAEL LOCK, AT LEAST YOU SHOULD BE. AFTER ALL, HE IS
THE MAN WHO FIGURED OUT HOW TO BREATHE NEW LIFE INTO
A SPORT THAT MANY SAID, JUST A FEW YEARS AGO, WAS DYING
AND COULDN'T BE SAVED. THE 2017 AFT SEASON PROVED THEM
WRONG, AND YOU CAN THANK MR. LOCK FOR THAT.
THIS IS THE FIRST OF OUR TWO-PART INTERVIEW WITH THE
BRIT WHO MANY FEEL SAVED A VERY AMERICAN SPORT.
