New Year Classic 2008
colincooke replied to tanya's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Looking forward to this one now.A few of the usual suspects here i know but that's what makes it so good. Lee Complin is the biggest draw for me.Hope his gating is crap cos like Bomber watching him race is brilliant. -

Predictions For.......
colincooke replied to gaylord's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Here is my veiw Nicki. Will be up there amongst the top boys stiil but will suffer from missing EL just as AJ has done. Crumpie.I'm backing Jason to regain the title in 2008 Leigh Adams. 3rd or 4th in 2008 which may or may not be his GP swansong. Hans. Will be there again but needs to cut out the lack of consistency if he's to get in the top 2 Gollob. Needs to master a few tracks still. As with Leigh this may or may not be his last year.2007 ended superbly for Tomasz. A rostrum place if he can be more consistent. Greg. Has been a bit of an enigma in 2007 to say the least.Would hate to see him finish on a low note. Top8 then retire is my veiw. Nicholls.In hindsight maybe his move to Eastbourne will help him on a few GP circuits. Needs to raise his game but what's new.7th or 8th or...or....who knows. Holta. Really surprised me last year & needs to maintain that form to suceed in 2008. Harris. Chris as we know was unlucky last year but maybe he was his own architect of that.That 5 point thing needs to be ditched if Chris is to progress.Chris tried out his new engines at the end of 2007,not to sure how they will work for him but some work needed to be done on that, cos they didn't look quick enough. AJ. Now he is back in EL AJ will not be relying on a nomination in 2008.Still not convinced about the concept of the machine he uses though. Bjarne. Is a far better rider than his position last year. Needs to cut out those last places late in meetings. PUK. Neils is in for a tough GP year again.Top 10 if he does well. Dryml. I have veiws on Lukas that some may not like. He may prove me wrong but he will be 2008's Antonio. Kasprszak. Polish GP's will be his best but needs more if he is to be a success. Lindgren. In my veiw a more solid rider than KK or NKI & wiil possibly get a top 10 place. So there you have it. -

Don't mind the Sunday but Saturday would be better for me as i'm an earlybird. Personal choice that's all. Parking isn't a problem if you go on the coach. That's assuming it don't break down en-route .No, seriously we had some fun keeping each other amused in that 1hr1/2 wait. -
New Year Classic 2008
colincooke replied to tanya's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Yeah, i'll be there for sure. Always enjoy this meeting even if it does freeze your cockles off .As for that money, much prefer Crozier's pay out but there you go ,LABATYD.If you wish to meet me i'll have a Bomber Harris shirt & Bees Wulf Jacket on,can't really miss me, possible i'll be going on to the back- straight. -

colincooke replied to Sandie's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
What a cracking day, & cracking company too.Isn't that right guys Buy the way did you know it's an offence to jump,dive or swim off the pier(private joke ).Adam was superb,hope he does it again & mixes with moaner Kennett & Lewis big time.Sorry to see Olly in the wars again but at least it's only concussion. Henka, what a legend. Those 140cc bikes finally look as if British speedway is moving forward for the kids,let's hope Hagon & Martin Dugard get the backing from the BSPA that's required. -

As this is my 1000th post i'm celebrating it with a poser for you. In speedway history there have been 4 occasions when riders from the same nation have achieved a clean sweep 1-2-3 on the World Championship rostrum. The question: Name the years & the 3 riders in finishing order. Good luck CC

Remember that clash well.Wasn't sure of the year though.Boys will be boys. -
As i remember the Golden Helmet in the 70s & 80s the match races only occured when the holders team visited a particular track or that rider was racing a home fixture.It would be great to see it come back run on this basis & then there would be no extra travelling costs etc as the competitors will already be at the venue. The holder should race v the top scorer in the opposing team.
