That is an indoor speedway meeting on ice,not Ice Speedway or Isracing as it is called in Sweden.So i would think it will be 100% shale riders

Looks very tempting!But just costed the taxis to Stansted/ flights/trains/hotel/meeting costs and it will cost about £200 so unless fate throws some extra cash my way i may have to give it a miss!

I know of 2 going to this meeting, but they do things <like me> on the cheap. Stansted-skavsta £37 return <with electron card>, they've hired a car, and they'll go to the meeting, and sleep at the airport and get home in morning. If you wanted a bed for the night, the hotel at the airport is reasonable. Send me email or pm and i'll put you in contact with them, they're friendly and they dont bite.

Let me know if there's still any chance of a lift (Will chip in on petrol)?As its impossible for me to get back to the airport that day otherwise.The slightly cheaper flights(£20 instead of £37) wont make half as much difference as to whether i can afford, as it would not having to stay there and pay for a hotel.

Let me know then i can book flights for that day too. I guess your thinking about 1 hour drive from airport so aiming to leave at 8pm whether meeting finished or not?

Daniel Davidsson won tonight's icespeedway meeting at Cloetta Center in Linköping, home of the Swedish Elitserien icehockey team Linköping HC.

 

Kim Nilsson looked like a favourite for the final after his 15 point maximum in the main event, but was outgated in the 4-lap final heat (all other heats were held over 3 laps). Perhaps he shouldn't have had a maximum to start with, as he surely should have been excluded in his first one, as he fell on his own, but the youngster was the top rider on show, only to lose the win in the final.

 

4012 in attendence witnessed this meeting/show and I had a feeling that most of them (at least in our bus) were happy with the event. So a massive "Well done!" to Stefan Andersson and Piraterna Speedway for hosting this event! I hope this can become a nice off-season tradition for the Swedish fans.
