Yes indeed sometimes booking tickets for Polish GP's requires lots of patience, perseverance, guesswork and a little bit of luck! -
Sounds Like Bad News For West Row
WembleyLion replied to Badge's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Mr Nimby aka Raymond Shields is a fireman (rather ironic given his property was destroyed by fire) - I hope they don't put the sirens on when on a 999 call as no doubt he would lodge a complaint against his employer! -
Sounds Like Bad News For West Row
WembleyLion replied to Badge's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
It looks like the NIMBY's also failed to notice the huge Airbase just down the road! The noise from the aircraft totally drowns out any Speedway noise when one flies over the stadium! I didn't appreciate a forklift had been driven into the heating oil tank which caused a fire and destroyed the NIMBY's home - Karma? -

2014 Gp Calendar
WembleyLion replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I just had the later e mail asking me to ignore the earlier e mail (that I hadn't received). Good to know our tickets are in safe hands! -
I found an old thread on dead heats that I started in 2007! http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=38527&hl=%20dead%20%20heats On bonus points it might be my mind playing up but I think the rules changed at one stage at least for a while as I recall Andy Smith scoring 1/2 a point in a meeting when he dead heated for third but he scored one bonus point so more in bonus points than actual points!

Grand Prix Speedway In Finland 2014-2016
WembleyLion replied to f-s-p's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I noticed this a few weeks ago and asked Ryanair why they had failed to notify me. They did not directly answer my question but said I was entitled to my money back which I knew anyway. I use Ryanair a lot for Speedway trips but frankly trying to communicate with them over anything is usually a complete waste of time in my experience. -
Big Fat 40... Help On Which Gp To Do.

Gdansk is also quite easy to get to and from Torun - just under two hours away and mostly on very new and virtually empty motorway! -
Favourite Closed Tracks
WembleyLion replied to Drop Dead Fred's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Sadly there are far too many to mention them all but a few that stand out for me are:- Wembley where I first saw Speedway. I have really enjoyed trips to Hyde Road Belle Vue, The Shay Halifax and County Ground Exeter. Trelawny was a great experience as well! Now I'm based in Buckinghamshire it would be nice to have Milton Keynes back! Finally, I really hope the Isle of Wight does not join the list! -
I would like to add my thanks as well - you all do a great job - well done!

Torun Gp 2013
WembleyLion replied to garygunson's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I think Tai is assured of a point from Ales Dryml (if Ales gets in front) who seemed to go out of his way to let Tai through in Stockholm. -

Malilla back for 2014? http://www.barometern.se/sporten/ot-avslojar-gp-cirkusen-tillbaka-i-malilla-2014(3943001).gm -
I enjoyed the meeting and have to agree to some of the above posts. Apart from giving some riders more track time I cannot think why Dudley were so intent on losing today.

Well done to Craig Cook breaking the track record in heats 1,5 and 15!

Grand Prix Speedway In Finland 2014-2016
WembleyLion replied to f-s-p's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I have travelled with Travel Plus and can highly recommend them. I also do my own thing quite regularly as for instance last week I did two meetings in Sweden and one in Denmark and as others have mentioned it is quite easy to organise this kind of travel in this day and age. I quite enjoy driving abroad so that might be a factor to take account of. Both options have their merits and are equally enjoyable in my experience.
