The Workington No.4 was wiped out by Jonas B Andersen in the penultimate race at Redcar on Thursday and still felt secondhand for Saturdays crunch clash against the Tigers. <\/p>\n
But six points from Williamson against some of the toughest riders in the division proved vital as Comets came from behind to stun their rivals. <\/p>\n
Williamson said: It was a really tough meeting for me, still feeling the effects from the crash at Redcar. Id still not fully recovered from a big spill I had at Edinburgh and then had that to deal with. <\/p>\n
I was happy that I managed to soldier through and get six points against one of the top teams in the league. For us to come back like we did was fantastic for the team. <\/p>\n
It looked like it was all over and, for once, the tactical ride went in our favour, then me and Ty got a good 5-1 after it and all of a sudden we were right back in it. <\/p>\n
We got an away point at Redcar then got a win on Saturday, so thats four points from two meetings which is putting us back up there. <\/p>\n
Despite the weekend, Williamson admitted it is still difficult to gauge how well they are doing with up to 11 meetings in hand on their rivals. <\/p>\n
Williamson has stepped up into the main body of the team this season without the luxury of regular meetings as rain-offs have plagued Workington, but he feels he is getting there after a run of strong displays. <\/p>\n
I knew it was going to be tough and not having the meetings hasnt helped, but Ive been consistently doing what Id say is the job expected of a No.4, he said. <\/p>\n
Im scoring four points or more and most people in the main body of the team have been riding for years and thats the scores they are getting. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Craig Cook, Ty Proctor, Thomas Jorgensen and Mason Campton will represent Comets in the SGB Championship Fours at Peterborough on Sunday, with Williamson named as the reserve. <\/p>\n
Workington have been drawn in group A with the hosts and Edinburgh, Sheffield and Scunthorpe. <\/p>\n
