Rob B replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
So is this track exactly same size as Copenhagen/Cardiff? - 
	Yes it was, pretty sure it was this meeting must be the heat 10 that is missing http://vimeo.com/72478918 When he retired he moved to Florida to set up a swimming pool business, don't know if he still there or not.

	Most clubs you can't pay by card, as with most things speedway, living in the dark ages!

	Nice bit of advertising for speedway on Eurosport on homepage of Xbox 360 : http://www.bellevuearmy.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=135&d=1373872416 http://www.bellevuearmy.co.uk/attachment.php?attachmentid=136&d=1373872422

				Parken Gp 2013
Rob B replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
They get around 15,000 at Vojens which I bet costs a fracton of the cost of Parken to run. Doubt many people actually stay in Vojens, towns of Haderslev & Kolding are only 20-30 mins away and are decent. Been going to Vojens since 1999 and seen poor meetings & great meetings. Funny enough some of the better meetings have been when there has been plenty of rain during the day so the track produces some grip instead of being hard & slick. The facilities are not fantastic but ok and its a good atmosphere. - 
	
	
				Parken Gp 2013
Rob B replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
The different type of dirt where it comes from, can't exactly ship it over from Denmark to Cardiff. The reason Nigel was saying it won't be back next year was due to Eurovision, this site says Eurovision has been ruled out there : http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=eurovision_will_not_return_to_parken_in_2014 -

				G.p In The U.s.a 2014
Rob B replied to Chesilmaster's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Paul Bellamy said at Methanol Club at Cardiff that USA was looking 50/50 as struggling to find a date for the stadium that would fit in. He said a GP in Melbourne, Australia at the Etihad Stadium was looking more likely as the guy in charge of that stadium use to be in charge of Millenium Stadium. - 
	
	
				Cardiff 2014 Date Saturday 12th July
Rob B replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
It was known last week it was 12 July as See Tickets had tickets for sale last week if you looked carefully on their website. - 
	They are better forgetting practise, not make it any worst any try and get it ready for tomorrow.

				Last Minute Cardiff Tickets?
Rob B replied to AndyJ's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I know you are sorted now but buying tickets online close to event is waste of time. last year I looked at booking tickets about week before in upper tier and it only offered me few blocks best it said was about row 25, went to the ticket office on the day and got tickets on row 3! -

				Belle Vues National Speedway Stadium
Rob B replied to Phil The Ace's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
It is going to be more like Bydgoszcz & Leszno with little details the same as Hyde Road like the straights won't be straight, they will have bit of a kink in them. -

Definitely, already been confirmed there will be purpose made covers made for the track same as Vojens. - 
	
	
				Belle Vues National Speedway Stadium
Rob B replied to Phil The Ace's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I agree with most of what you say, difference is though current track runs once a week (if that), new track they are wanting to run 7 days a week training academy, residents might have a problem with that. Hopefully there will be some some sort of compromise on times. - 
	
	
				Belle Vues National Speedway Stadium
Rob B replied to Phil The Ace's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
You are right, Chris Morton did say at a fans meeting there wasn't enough room for full size pitch in centre. Maybe things have changed? I hope they have not compromised the track shape to fit it in as the track shape was designed first and everything else was designed around it. - 
	
	
				Belle Vues National Speedway Stadium
Rob B replied to Phil The Ace's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
6000 is the basic capacity, for SWC temporary grandstands will be put on back straight raising capacity to 10,000 and for GP's extra stands put on bends too raising it to 16,000 (off top of my head) This is the report being discussed today : http://bellevuespeedway.net16.net/bellevuesportsvillage.pdf - 
	10.30pm at Belle Vue

	Can't be, they had big Monster truck at Vojens giving away free cans of the stuff.

	In the programme Ole Olsen says reason is due to facilities don't meet BSI requirements anymore. I don't believe this, you got places like Terenzano that have lot worst facilities and only get couple of thousand there. I think there is some politics going on, for some reason Vojens doesn't have a league team any more either. You now have a purpose built speedway stadium now that is going to go to waste not being used.

	Yep reckon we have been to Vojens about 10 times at different times of year and always rains at some point over the weekend!
