80cc Youth Gold Trophy Final at Wawrow (Poland) 1,000 (2004 at Eskilstuna : 1,230) Silly that Eskilstuna had a attendance of 1,230 at the 80cc Youth Gold Throphy. I was there, ( timekeeper) and the att could have been 123..

Thanks for the photos Mateusz. Cheers Mikael

Will it be any Live Updates from the meeting?

Old stories is great to read, let em coming.

Me thinks that the way British Speedway must go are to introduce 80cc bikes, and build tracks out in the woods there they can have a go wherever they want. It cant be that hard just look at the Swedish / Danish 80cc scene and see what it have produced through the years since 80cc was introduced here in Sweden in the late 1970's. And its is a nice way of get to knowing other parents with their kids doing speedway. Cheers Mikael

This is great News for Speedway, a new country and hopefully it will produce lots of intresent in Latvia. Mikael

No russians in it =( As you said a very good opener to the Ice season.

Tomorrow it will be speedway in the middle of winter here in Eskilstuna / Sweden. I was out today and took a few snaps out there at the track and this one was the best: http://www.albumsnaps.com/?c=photos&pID=112558 I will take pictures tommorow to and hope for some good ones. Mikael

David Howe will not appear sadly. Dont know why though.

All Elitclubs included has a debt of 10 millions crownes, dont know how bad it is for each club though. For Smederna it says that they are: - over 1 millions Swedish Crownes. I think VMS Elit is the only club that has + in their economy. I think most clubs has counted wrong then layed their budgetplans, in terms of attendance and to expensive contracts for riders. Smederna for instance has cut down their wages for riders contracts with about 10% said Smedernas chairman yesterday. Smederna sold Nicki Pedersen and Jesper B Jensen to Bajen Speedway for 2006. I have heard Nicki Pedersen had 5000:- Crownes for each point so if he did take a heat win he cashed in : 15000:- Swedish Crownes and Nicki took many heatvictorys! So he was expensive very expensive. I think Smederna gave him a too good contract then he got World Champ, and has heard that he had the same the year after which I think is wrong. Ok for beeing good paid the beeing World Champ but then he left over the title he should have gone down in money. But this is just my thoughts. Mikael

Heard today from Smederna Chief Göran Karlsson that Scott Nicholls is ready for Unia Tarnow. Scott is also moving his base to Eskilstuna, Sweden.

Ok, strange. I was told that the fixture list was delayed... But as you see over here it is now out.

Allsvenskan Fixture can be found here: http://www.speedway.nu/sf/Text/Serier-06/A...skan%202006.pdf

Allsvenskans fixtures are not ready, not 80cc either...

It sucks... Is there any possibilty I can help out here? It must be cheaper to 'borrow' me and as I live in Sweden I can order them online and then send the tickets over to Uk to who that¨are going here. I help If I can. Mikael

Yes you did but then they werent offical. This weekend that was all clubs were at a meeting and now they are official.

I will get them here as soon I see them.' / Mikael
