Reviresco 708 Posted September 27, 2006 I fail to understand how anybody would want to have an article in BackTrack on Gary Gugliemi. What he did off track (no details on here) surely exclude him from any association with speedway past & present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigerblade 221 Posted September 27, 2006 (edited) I fail to understand how anybody would want to have an article in BackTrack on Gary Gugliemi. What he did off track (no details on here) surely exclude him from any association with speedway past & present. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Can understand why you feel like that, but then again if we exclude him for off the track reasons, then we shouldn't have had features on Michael Lee, Malcolm Simmons etc. either. Where do you draw the line? Edited September 27, 2006 by Tigerblade Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scarletrider 66 Posted January 17, 2007 Being an old Hackney fan you won't be suprised when I say Bengt Jansson. I also think that although his best period was before the 1970's, Briggo would be a great read. Also Neil Street - others have mentioned Streety in this thread and I can only echo their views. Others would include Dave Jessup (is he really as mean as they say - I think we should be told !!)? John Davis (there has been a brief item about him already). I also think that Crazy Jack Millen could fill a book (again a brief item has already been in the mag but there must be so many stories about the guy), Len Silver was a stalwart promotor of the time and is still going strong today. How about Mike Patrick - he was at just about every significant meeting and knew all the riders - he must a yarn of twelve? I'd also like to see something about the mechanical developments following the 4 valve revolution - there were various engines from Jawa, Weslake, Godden, ERM, Maeley and GM. Hope this helps <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bob Ferry has written two books on Jack Millen........"Crazy Jack" and "Both sides of the track". Both are full of full of previously untold stories of the great entertainer "Crazy Jack". He also penned the article in the "Backtrack" magazine. Thanks for the memories Jack, may you rest in peace.
