lucifer sam 3,953 Posted December 30, 2015 I've obviously missed this book! Who published it please? Speedway Star. It's a compilation of all their World Final reports from the 70s, but on proper paper and all in one place. Lots of new photos, additional material from Tony Mac from his subsequent interviews with riders, plus a new interview with Jerzy Szczakiel. Highly recommended - I've read it virtually cover-to-cover since getting it for Xmas. All the best Rob 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
