  1. This Saturday, December 11, 2021, the F.I.M. North American Final is held at the Perris Speedway in California. Here is an interview with the promoter Steve Evans
  2. I have just seen that You have a Swiss rider listed as Max Aesi, the name is in fact Max Aebi.
  3. An Australian SGP at the EKKA would be awesome !
  4. There is a beautiful photo of the Brisbane Exhibition Ground Speedway (EKKA) on the back cover of this week's (w/e Nov 20) Speedway Star. What a great and historic venue for our sport.
  5. Yes, Noah Moss is half Danish and half Korean. Thomas Sörensen was half Danish and half Sri Lankan. ... and that young German lad You mentioned is Mario Häusl (see picture below), whose father is from Munich and his mother from the Seychelles. He is even sporting the national flag of the Seychelles on his kevlars. He must be the first speedway riders ever to emerge form these Indian Ocean islands.
  6. Great film about Ray Tauscher (aka Tauser) just watched it again in full length here https://thevintagent.com/2020/12/07/the-vintagent-selects-ray-thauscher/
  7. Long Track does not get such big crowds here in Germany anymore. With one or two exceptions attendance figures are less than for the big speedway meetings. You are spot on with Poland. They price their league meetings low and affordable for youths and families to attend, which has a very positive effect on crowd figures, which attracts sponsors, tv etc. Riders are "stars" or at least familiar names with the public because they are omni-present on Polish TV and other media. And the Polish speedway stadia facilities are of a good quality, which is another important fact .
  8. keep it simple - no need for change - 3, 2, 1, 0 is best
  9. https://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/thread/20590/great-britain-poland-glasgow-2021
  10. Has Berntzon been officially confirmed to ride for Sweden today, or is this just a rumour?
  11. German riders Tobias Busch, Valentin Grobauer, and Marius Hillebrand remain as seniors with Landshut. Landshut have signed 18-year-old Erik Bachhuber as their second under-21 rider (behind Norick Bloedorn), and have retained Mario Niedermaier as a back-up junior rider.
  12. Poland's prepartion for the SoN and it was also a farewell for former national team coach Marek Cieslak
  13. It is more like a circle than an oval. https://www.google.de/maps/@52.6484458,7.5869771,173m/data=!3m1!1e3
  14. It is not a 120m track, it is a bit longer. I have it as a 215m circular speedway oval. Still the smallest of all our speedway tracks here in Germany.
  15. That is disappointing - the Rest of the World side was supposed to be led by the new world champion Artem Laguta. Why not ? What happened ?
  16. A proper international speedway test match at last. Great ! Thank You Poland ! I suppose that Bartosz Zmarzlik will lead the Polish team and world champion Artem Laguta the ROW. Looking forward to this match.
  17. Brilliant result for our team. Champions of the Polish League Division 2. This was our very first season in the Polish League, and now we will get Division One speedway here next year. Well done !
  18. Lambert AND Bewley should get wildcards - we already have four Poles, so we could (should) have three Brits
  19. I would also like to learn more about the SGP4 concept, which seems to be aiming at beginners using inexpensive standard machinery.
  20. Forget the old scoring system, even a fifteen point max for Laguta will mean nothing as long as Zmarzlik also makes the semis, even with only seven or eight points. It now depends on just one race for Laguta, his semi-final. That is the only race that is really important for him. If Laguta finishes first, second, or even only third in his semi-final he is World Champion, but if he fails in this race, Zmarzlik has the chance to make up the nine point deficit with a win in the final. The first twenty heats tonight are only a warm up for the world title contenders, since neither of them will have any problems to qualify for the semi-finals (only eight or nine points needed to do that). They are well adviced not to take any unneccessary risks in the qualifying heats. For them this meeting only really starts with heat 21.
