enotian 565 Posted December 29, 2021 Who wins? 15 heat 7 man team match between a team whose riders surname is Collins and a team whose riders surname is Pedersen. From any era in the sport. Are these the two most prominent surnames in speedway history or are there any others worthy of mention? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guess that was an answer to the question of 'others worthy of mention ' Jansson could also be worthy of mention, and would guess they could field a team. 3 of that surname having made a world final, so better than Collins ?

iris123 21,085 Posted December 29, 2021 Moore maybe ? Ronnie, Peter and Chun, all made the final. Although Chun was in the pre-world final, star riders championship. Not sure if there are enough, as all i can think of other than those is Ronnies father Les Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
