iris123 21,034 Posted January 11, 2007 (edited) I'll take a leaf out of f-s-p's book here A number of changes happening for the new season.For a start there will be only one Bundesliga.The second league has been scrapped and a few teams have dropped out of the Bundesliga.As far as rule changes go the team limit is now at a very low 30 points.Only one foreign rider per team,plus there must be a German U21 +U19 rider in each team.The U19 riders will compete in their own heats against each other. Bundesliga fixtures are as follows: 01.04 Diedenbergen 42,Brokstedt 32,Landshut 26,Neuenknick 25 08.04 Neuenknick 26,Güstrow 30,Diedenbergen 40,Brokstedt 29 01.05 Brokstedt 31,Pfaffenhofen 22,Neuenknick 34,Güstrow 38 06.05 Pfaffenhofen 24,Olching 26,Güstrow 35,Landshut 41 02.06 Landshut 39,Neuenknick 37,Olching 25+2 ,Pfaffenhofen 25+3 22.07 Olching 44,Landshut 40,Pfaffenhofen 25,Diedenbergen 17 12.08 Güstrow 35,Diedenbergen 26,Brokstedt 22,Olching 43 03.10 Final(venue to be decided) Table Landshut.....4meetings......9pts.....146 racepoints Güstrow .....4 ......9.....138 Olching ....4.......7.......138 Diedenbergen 4 ....7 .....125 Neuenknick.. 4.......4....122 Brokstedt.... 4......4.....114 Pfafenhoffen 4.....2......96 And here are the averages the teams have to work with. There will also be a league competed between 3 of the northern teams that dropped out,but in the British league format,rather than the 4tt Bundesliga format. 05.05 Teterow 30 v Stralsund 60 17.05 Wolfslake 51v Teterow 41 30.06 Stralsund v Wolfslake rained-off 21.07 Stralsund 59 v Teterow 34 04.08 Wolfsake 50v Stralsund 41 21.09 Teterow v Wolfslake No idea yet of any restictions or the make up of each team.But at first glance and knowing the usual line-ups of these teams it looks quite promising. Marcin Piekarski has signed for Wolfslake.Here.Seems quite a good young rider.Think i read before that Jernej Kolenko was looking forward to a good year in Germany,so expect him to be in the Wolfslake team as well Edited September 29, 2007 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iris123 21,034 Posted January 28, 2007 (edited) Press release from the 3 north east clubs.Here.Seems the only regs for team building are that one of the 6 riders must be a German U21.And it seems like 2 must be foreign,but no GP riders.Not so sure on the competition name though Edited January 28, 2007 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iris123 21,034 Posted February 3, 2007 (edited) Der normale Betonfußboden der Kieler Ostseehalle ist auch gleichzeitig der Belag für die Bahn, sicher gewöhnungsbedürftig für viele Fahrer. Deshalb wird auch nicht mit Speedwayreifen, sondern mit normalen Straßenreifen gefahren. Getestet wurde das ganz bereits von Matten Kröger, der keinerlei Probleme hatte. Seit Mittwoch laufen die Vorbereitungen in der Halle, man darf gespannt sein was die Crew des Veranstalters alles auf die Beine gestellt hat, aber eines ist jetzt schon gewiss, eine Reise nach Kiel wird sich sicher lohnen. Norbert Hirt Taken from the Stralsund web-site In answer to your question TMW,it says here that the concrete floor of the hall will be used.And so that means the riders won't be using speedway tyres,but normal street tyres.Matten Kröger has tested it and everything is good.As it was i just caught a bit of a tv report from the test run,but only saw the freestyle jumps and a bit of an interview with Egon Müller.I thought the track looked very firm And there seems to be plenty of padding around the outside,rather than the wooden boards that are there at Neustadt for the NOS.I hope if they done a preview of the meeting,the tv crew will be there during the weekend and show some of the action sunday or monday Edited February 3, 2007 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwoMinuteWarning 69 Posted February 3, 2007 (edited) As you probably know, Doug, racing on concrete was tried here in the UK in the early 1980's. I went to see it at Wembley - the indoor arena, not the stadium - and while it was quite entertaining, it wasn't really speedway. But as part of a mixed motorsport programme, it should be a bit of a novelty, anyway. Pleased to hear that the 1983 World Champ is still around!
