Thats Huckenbeck, FSP meant Hefenbrock.

Gorzow should be on the same weekend again, so 25.08.2018 (tbc).

Maybe Vetlanda as they also hosted the GP challenge last year

Cool, I have updated the opening post: http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=83789&page=1 Heard in Stockholm that there should be two GP's in Sweden next year with one in Malilla (as per current contract), but also another venue (no temporary track).

For next year; keep an eye on www.longtrack-live.com for all FIM Long Track live updates

Hardly any Polish fans? I have seen many of them.

Im going, although Im from the Netherlands

Leszno would be cool

Fricke will replace Pedersen.

International open meeting in Prague as well on the monday evening.

This 250cc league is very good Can foreign riders take part in this?

They have covers on the track, unlike Teterow. Practice cancelled here too.

For those traveling to Teterow (and I guess Gustrow too), there is also a speedway meeting in Wolfslake on the sunday (1.5 hour south from Teterow). Look for info on the German forum: http://www.speedway-forum.de/index.php?thread/15343-10-09-2017-int-speedwayrennen-in-wolfslake/

GTR now also more involved in Polish speedway and the NICE cup. They have a seperate meeting (4 heats I think) today in Torun with 4 riders on GTR engines.

Super meeting today too bad of the rain. Crazy how quick these meetings can be run. Imagine when the top boys stop doing their little games with changing bikes and having 20 mechanics on the tracks. Would speed thing up drastically.

Some awesome racing here so far

First heat will be a hour earlier due to the bad weather forecast.
