SCB 15 Posted November 26, 2006 Yeah...and it's interesting that Vostok are the team that AJ has raced for, and is being talked about for 2007 when travelling to the UK was allegedly an issue for him <{POST_SNAPBACK}> At £5000 travelling expenses, I'll go and ride in Vostok or any other un-spell-able and unpronounciable Russian city/town and give the Bitish League a miss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As they left out days before the team would, the team's owner bought them three spots on the Trans-Siberian Railway to get to the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HenryW 1,178 Posted November 29, 2006 At £5000 travelling expenses, I'll go and ride in Vostok or any other un-spell-able and unpronounciable Russian city/town and give the Bitish League a miss I hate to put a downer on your dreams SCB, but I just can't see them offering you anything to race for them It does look like the Russian league is shaping up nicely for 2007. I'm looking forward to seeing more of the action from there next year, even if it is just on the PC for now.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm from Vladivostok and I've been to Moscow twice. No train - just plane! Riders won't travel by train too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ja-Jacek 4 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) QUOTE(tarabanko @ Nov 24 2006, 12:03 PM) How far from Moscow are Togliatti? Not quite as far as Rovno and Vostock then <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You should learn names od Russian cities a little more Vostok - it's a name of speedway team from VLADIVOSTOK Need more? Mega-Lada from TOGLIATTI Luk-Oil from OKTIABRSKIJ SK Turbina from BALAKOVO SMTK Turbina from BALAKOVO (they have two different teams in one city) Salavat from SALAVAT Ukraine from ROVNO (ukrainian team) Lokomotiv from DAUGAVPILS (latvian team) Primorje Primorskij Kraj from VLADIVOSTOK When I check - I'll write more... to upgrade your knowledge about teams from the east side of Polish border. ------------ edit: I found another one team...

Ja-Jacek 4 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) I am an user of Russian speedway-forum... unfortunately (for you) it's only in russian language... But if you go into some topics you can find a lot of pictures, not only of tracks but riders, too. http://forum.speedway.ru/index.php?

arnieg 3,715 Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) You should learn names od Russian cities a little more Vostok - it's a name of speedway team from VLADIVOSTOK N <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You should learn not to patronise. I am very well informed about Russian speedway (and geography) and regularly use both http://www.russpeedway.ru/ and http://irgiz.narod.ru/ (although it takes forever to unload). I have been to Latvia, Ukraine and Russia (although I've only seen ice speedway in Russia (@ Saransk)) Oh and you forgot Kamensk-Uralski in your list of teams Edited November 30, 2006 by arnieg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
