In 1980, Wyer won the South Australian Championship at the then new Speedway Park in Adelaide. The 430 metres (470 yd) long Speedway Park was a different track than Wyer was used to as its surface is clay rather than the dirt/shale track he rode in at home.

Wyer won the National League Pairs Championship with Les Collins in 1986
