Preston was slated to ride in the 1979 Speedway World Pairs Championship Final with Bruce Penhall at the Speedway Center in Vojens, Denmark, after first Kelly Moran had to pull out due to injuries suffered in a practice crash and the Moran's replacement Steve Gresham failed to arrive. However, Preston was left stranded at Heathrow Airport in London, England, and could not make it to Denmark in time, which forced Penhall to ride the Pairs Final alone. won silver medals with the USA team at the 1980 and 1981 Speedway World Team Cup.[3]

He retired from the sport at the end of the 1982 season due to a friend's death.
