ERIK = 17 (7 WTC, 5 PAIRS, 2 LTRACK, 3 IND)

IVAN = 14 (3 LT, 6 IND, 1 PAIR, 4 WTC)

RONNIE = 3 (2 IND, 1 PAIR)

OVE 11 (5 IND, 6 WTC)

Originally thought it was just World Speedway titles, therefore does my second answer count?

Yes it does. If it is correct its truly amazing that when you look at it like that Erik is really a superstar. If we do not get any more that can increase it, your looking as the likely winner. Thanks for that. Who would have thought it?
