That sums up speedway. What a meeting and a huge thank you to every rider who took part and showed why as a spectacle speedway can produce high octane entertainment when needed

A shame no one broadcasts it over here...

The Polish league being shown would certainly help boost interest in the UK version of the sport, who could "piggy back" off it...

Admittedly, given the enormous difference in the operating models, and level of riders, the boost may not last too long, but that woukd be down to the UK promoters to resolve, and maximise any potential growth...

well not doing the Bellevue gps, off to Poland instead 4 meetings in 4 days including the Wroclaw gp, (but no tickets.) will see what happens.

18 -21.06?

I'm doing Pila, Gorzów, SGP Wrocław and Toruń.

Think the Heat Formula and Tac sub and reserve changes makes it interesting to the end most meetings. Something UK speedway should be looking at IMO. AND no guests.

Agree. And guests - the single biggest reason for UK's decline in my opinion. I refuse to attend again until they get rid of them. No other leagues use them, so UK doesn't need them either.

Big noisy crowd means great atmosphere, which then makes even the "average races" seem good...

And then when you get a "special one" the place goes up!!!.

Two decent, well matched teams, a big crowd, including away fans, great atmosphere and decent racing...

Surely someone over here could use that template and deliver something a bit nearer to Poland than what we have currently...?

Even if you have good racing here the 60+ year olds aren’t going to create an atmosphere. The passion for speedway isn’t here in this country. You don’t see these fans in Poland sitting down and filling in their programmes after each heat. Imagine being at a football match and someone scores and the first thing you do is fill in a booklet with the goal scorer and the score, I find it weird people do it for speedway ever since I got into the sport.
