Rico 210 Posted February 15, 2006 Henka Gustafsson - the legend of Bydgoszcz speedway track and night life in 90s <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I thought he was fairly legendary in Chesterfields last year as well MK !

tommy 0 Posted February 16, 2006 'Jonas Messing from Rospiggarna Simon Gustafsson from Indianerna Robin Törnqvist from Valsarna are the swedes who are over to the states. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Apart from my blurry vision and the drunken blabbering after a few too many pints at Chesterfields I somehow remember Henka telling us that Simon already beat him a few times during practice. It's going to be a treat seeing him in a few years on the big tracks.What the other two, Messing (brother of Andreas?) and Tornqvist?Have they had a go on a 500cc yet?

Anders 0 Posted February 16, 2006 What the other two, Messing (brother of Andreas?) and Tornqvist?Have they had a go on a 500cc yet? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Jonas and Andreas are not brothers, but they are related somehow, can´t remember exactly, that´s too many of them Messings. Törnqvist has made two season on 500cc for Valsarna in Allsvenskan, averaging 5.09 in 2004 and 6.04 in 2005, mostly from reserve. He qualified to the 2004 Swedish U21 final but missed it due to injury (I think). In 2005 he surprisingly missed the qualification for the Swedish U21 final but he was a regular in the U21 national team and made the European U19 final, finishing 15th.

But Henka with his fellow Jacek Gollob were kings of Bydgoszcz night life some time ago. Lots of stories about their adventures here and there around the city Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
