Neil Joseph Street OAM (15 January 1931 – 6 October 2011) was an Australian international motorcycle speedway rider, manager and engineer.
Phil Crump then used the engine in the Australian Championships at Sydney and took nearly 3 seconds off the track record held by Jim Airey.
Crump had been given the option of his normal 2-valve engine, but after trying the 4-valve refused to get off the motorcycle as confirmed by Ivan Tighe.
His cancer spread to his leg and as a result had a fall a few weeks prior to his death and banged his head but he did not tell anyone.
He was unaware that the fall had caused a brain hemorrhage and Street slipped into a coma during his sleep and died on 6 October.
