The White Knight

The Riders have to ride tthe Bikes on the Tracks provided. The only Track that I can see that is fit for purpose is the NSS. The bikes are far too fast to race on Tracks more fitted to upright engines than these 'lay downs' that they ride these days. Yes, even JAPs were in my opinion safer. The top speeds on these bikes were fast enough for the Sport. To be honest, I thought the racing was better too. I know people will talk about progress - but - only when it benefits Speedway, but to my mind these four-valve never did. I know that I am getting on in years, and unable to attend, but to me Speedway has regressed, not progressed over the years since the 60's, and 70's. If there is a case to be made for too much progress - then this is it. Oh!!! I preferred the 'one off' World Final to the current day GP's too, though I doubt that will surprise anyone on here. To me, the 60's and early 70's were the Golden Age of Speedway.

It is a great shame that Speedway hasn't. The Sport seems to be stuck in a time warp - except for the bikes, which are far too powerful these days.

How right you are. 1928 tracks with 2025 rocket ship bikes racing on them will not end well. There are more and more injuries these days. Is it any wonder?

Must have been really good. You posted it twice. 😉🤣

You made mme laugh. 🤣🤣 Hence the 'Like'.

I agree with you, Ray. I sincerely hope we are both wrong, and that the phoenix may yet arise from the ashes.

Very sad news. R.I.P. + Graham.
