For Ukrainian speedway you should probably also check Chervonograd site

This site is a good source of videos from Russian speedway as well.... Examples being : Togliatti v Oktyabrsky Balakovo derby Balakovo v Oktyabrsky The SK Turbina site mentioned by Ja-Jacek also has some good videos. As an aside, if you are looking for good Russian sites that are written in English you are going to struggle. Babelfish is your friend

Surely Chivsy travel's international branch hasn't gone bust after the Bydgoszcz trip this year? Come on Chivsy.....you can rival TP yet

I hate to put a downer on your dreams SCB, but I just can't see them offering you anything to race for them It does look like the Russian league is shaping up nicely for 2007. I'm looking forward to seeing more of the action from there next year, even if it is just on the PC for now....

I will definitely be joining Rico and Mateusz in Wroclaw and Bydgoszcz, and will also probably make Cardiff. Hopefully might make Prague next year as well.....others are yet to b considered. At all venues I will be moping around depressed because serial failure PePe is no longer part of the circus.

LMAO.....I'm not convinced that this mode of transport would get him to and from his destination in a timely fashion to allow him to continue to compete in the Swedish and Polish leagues

Why? Because he looks after his own financial security? BTW : When are you going to change your signature from that misrepresented quote?

Yeah...and it's interesting that Vostok are the team that AJ has raced for, and is being talked about for 2007 when travelling to the UK was allegedly an issue for him

I'm not sure that it is accurate to suggest that Tomek is only still in the top 8 because he made a "couple of finals". By my reckoning, if you tally up the scores from the qualifying heats in all of the GPs this year, Tomek is still in the top 8.... Assuming my calcs are correct, the order actually becomes : 1.Crump (115), 2.Hancock (106), 3.Pedersen.N (100), 4.Adams (93), 5.Jonsson (87), 6.Zagar (78), 7.Gollob (73), 8.Pedersen.B (73), 9.Nicholls (72), 10.Lindback (66), 11.Hampel (65), 12.Andersen (62), 13.Iversen (51), 14.Richardson (40), 15.Rickardsson (38), 16.Protasiewicz (31) So maybe Jarek Hampel would be a better rider to make your argument with, he tumbles back down the order without his 3 final appearances, unlike Mr Gollob. Bjarne Pedersen clearly stands out as the man to suffer from his inability to make it through to finals. Scotty also looks much healthier in this table. Considering he missed a round, to only be 1 point out of 8th isn't too bad...especially when you consider he was the 2nd most consistent* rider in the field with a standard deviation in his scores of only 1.32. *The most consistent was, of course, the great PePe!!

Whether you go into the cheapest seats or not probably depends on the type of person you are and what kind of behaviour you enjoy and what you find unacceptable. You are almost guaranteed to have lots of drunken Poles around you during the meeting. Personally I have never had any trouble, but then I have been with the wonderful Bydgoszcz Net F@ns when I have been in that area. The biggest problem we have had was when huge smoke bombs caused some distress to one member of our party a couple of years ago... The atmosphere is certainly better in the cheap seats than in the other sectors! As for the tickets. Never been a problem with picking up the pre-paid tickets for the meeting after arriving at the stadium, and never heard of anyone having any trouble.

Very unfortunate PF...we had some great races tonight! (nothing to do with me winning more than usual )

VPN application. Install it and select the network you want to join.

Is it not about time we started a separate website or at least forum for British players of this game? We are at 81 pages of "Anyone playing", "What IP?", "How do I start a server", "How do I download the game", etc, etc, etc.... The useful information is being lost in the fog and the BSF bandwidth is being, quite frankly, wasted by this. As far as I can see, if a UK league is started, this is only going to get worse. I am likely to be getting a dedicated server for an unrelated project in the near future, and would be happy to give some space to a forum or site for this game, but until then...Does anyone have a good suggestion for a free forum host that we could use as I really don't have any knowledge of forum hosts.

Anyone racing just now? If not...anyone want to race just now? PM me and I can try and set up a server...no guarantees that I will succeed though

Any chance of the result being posted on here?

Serious addiction problem there, Spook!!!

I bet BSI would be right P'd off if the three Brits got through!! Here's hoping PePe can do it all over again....I'm sure he'll be a star in the GP next year

And my ability to hit the grass has to be seen to be believed as well

You can find that at : sound\raceend.wav

Indeed, what IS in a name...The track in the game is actually Shiefield, unless my version is different

I figured that it might be better to start racing against some Brits that didn't have much experience, or wait a few weeks/months with regular practice before I took on the Poles What sort of lap times are those guys doing on the various tracks?

Have you tried the downloads from WinAce.com? last time I checked, which was a while ago, the downloadable version allowed for a 30 day trial period. That just sounds like you need to download WinAce as well... mikowhy - Do you have any instructions for creating new tracks, or links to download other tracks? Racing the Polish circuits is good, but I'd prefer the more technical UK tracks

How good is the network play feature? It looks like it could be quite good fun to race against some others

Although Theo Pijper is listed in the scorers for this meeting, according to the Monarchs Chatzone he spent the weekend in Edinburgh... Anyone know who actually took those two rides?

You mean...pin yourself right on the white line (but not over it) and don't even think of moving away from it?? From what I saw, the worst offender for not noticing that seemed to be Nicki....
