Not really sure where the best place is to post this, so please do feel free to move if necessary (none of the for sale / wanted folders seemed to match). I'm trying to hire for a single day the typical Speedway reactions bike that is often seen at fayres, measuring reactions when you drop the clutch after seeing a light or similar. Seen them at various tracks and events. Could you drop me a PM if you own one or know somebody who does? Need it in 3 weekends' time. Happy to pay for the loan or donate to SRBF. If you can man it and explain Speedway to people then even better!

A fantastic resource. Thank you for these updates.

Looking to add coverage of the two following meetings to my collection: - 1990 Championship of Sussex (Arlington stadium, Eastbourne - won by Alan Mogridge) - 1992 World Semi Final (Wiener Neustadt, Austria - won by Gert Handberg) If anyone can help, a PM would be appreciated.

Superb! Many thanks.

I am looking for the results of the Finnish Open Longtrack meeting that was staged as a support class to the FIM Flattrack Cup on 9th June 2013 (the day after the FIM Longtrack Round). For the record, the Flattrack Results were: Ari ASTEDT 0, 2, N, 2, R = 4 Fabrizio VESPRINI 4, 4, 4, 4, 3 = 19 Mikko KOSKINEN 5, 6, 6, R, 6 = 23 Rob SIJBRING 1, 1, 1, 3, 2 = 8 Tomi PAAVOLA 2, 0, 2, 1, 1 = 6 Emanuele MARZOTTO 3, 3, 3, 5, 5 = 19 Janne RANTALA 6, 5, 5, 6, 4 = 26 But for some reason I didn't manage to get down the results of the local Finnish/Swedish riders in the Longtrack Open. Might be a long shot on such an obscure open meeting, but if anyone can help out they will be rewarded with many kind words.

Thank you for that MuddyValve, that´s one mystery difference solved. Edit: I have worked out the other inconsistency: finishing order provided in the press release (http://speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.24117) differed from the finishing order in the referee´s scorechart (http://speedwaygb.co/14results/scun_230314.pdf). So I got there! Thank you again Speedway community.

Thanks Aidan. Got that bit. The riders I´m struggling with are Harry Jones, Connor Fletcher, Layne Cupitt & Ben Basford. My totals for these riders (after their worst round - 0 for each of them - is taken away) come up different to the official results posted on the SpeedwayGB site. I get the following final totals after the worst round is subtracted: Harris 80 Downes 66 Dugard 60 Leek 60 Wilson 58 Griggs 49 Ruddick 36 Sanderson 36 Jones 36 Fletcher 25 Cupitt 23 Greaves 18 Wajknecht 11 Whitehead 11 Blackburn 9 Basford 8 (SpeedwayGB says 9) Miles 8 (Edited to show corrections)

Thanks to Arnie´s help regarding the awarded Championship points, and the official referees´ scorecharts, I have managed to build up this spreadsheet with the leaderboards in full. But in both 250cc and 500cc classes I have four riders whose points do not match up with the ´official results´ (highlighted in red). Can anyone spot where my calculations have fallen down? Perhaps I need to call on you again Arnie! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OR3bmd3A0tn8WXjs4jlELQUWAUfdzOBSqanZBBWCtHY/edit?usp=sharing Now that I´ve started this quest, I´m determined to get it right!

Many thanks Arnie.

Thank you all for your responses. If anyone has any suitable contact details for the organisers, could they please kindly PM them to me?

Can anyone help me out please by giving me the breakdown of how Championship points were awarded in this year´s British Youth Championship? I have the scorecards from each round from the BSPA website, the points from each meeting don´t match the points from the series overall (http://speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.27064) and there´s no explanation of how Championship points are awarded. Could it be something like (20-18-16 etc.) based on finishing positions including the finals? How are heat point tie-breaks settled? Any knowledge or input appreciated. And if you can point me in the direction of a full table with round-by-round Championship points, even better! Alex
