  1. Line-up for Flims has been announced.A few new names on the list.And the Polish riders are getting a few meetings in this season,what with the Swedish league and these open meetings Flims
  2. That is the question i think a lot of people will ask.The cynical view after what happened with Robert Barth(it was reported that for instance he had to pay his own way into the SWC quali he was managing at!)is they have gone for a youngster who won't make waves.He will get an early chance to put his skills to use as Germany meet Denmark,Croatia and France here in an U19 team qualifier.So at least he will be older than the riders in the team
  3. Well they can judge for themselves René Schäfer
  4. Well like i say he is still riding himself.Think he was a promising rider at one stage but hasn't really progressed much over the past few years.Seems like he has been acting as a youth development officer for the German authorities.Looked after the school age riders,but this is a very big step.Maybe Herman knows more about him than me.But like i say took me by surprise and i wonder how the riders like Smoli and Tobi Kroner feel about it as they have more experience than their manager
  5. Germany have made the shock(to me anyway) announcement that 23 year old Pfaffenhofen rider René Schäfer will be the new German team manager for both senior and junior sides!Follows on from ex World Longtrack Champ Robert Barth who didn't see eye to eye with the DMSB by all accounts
  6. Just read that Tobias Johansson has retired.Anyone have confirmed info.Seems he might become team manager of Lejonen
  7. Is this "small Extra league"only for Polish juniors or all juniors at the club?.Erik Pudel and Kevin Wölbert rode in a junior competition last year.Will Kevin be allowed in this?
  8. Hasn't Jeleniewski had a bit of trouble with Rybnik?I thought he had agreed terms with them and then pulled out at the last minute.And they want to take the matter to the authorities?
  9. For you maybe and on a Polish track,but in Denmark i would much rather see Nicki or NKI But i will say he should be a good replacement if both are unavailable.Which hopefully won't happen now
  10. Yaaaaaaaay!I can make it to Gnistorna from here I have been there before and as long as they haven't changed the bus route i might be able to make a meeting next year
  11. Reading the recent interview on WWoS with Davey Watt he said the Australian Championship was the qualification for the GP quali's.So given that the likes of Ryan and Rory are not in the Oz Championship does that mean they won't be going for GP qualification next year? Pity for the fans down under.When you look at that line-up compared to the Polish or Danish Championship there is a distinct lack of top riders
  12. Thanks Norbold.That was a close one.
  13. A few British winners Auatralian Championship
  14. Norbold,if you have all the other details from that season,could you maybe give the heat details for the St.Austell meeting on 04.06.1963.I have the programme but it isn't filled in and i don't have the relevant SS
  15. Yes,sorry norbold.Reg was in the programme at no.6.He was replaced by Eddie and Eddie swapped with Terry Stone.So Stone rode at 6 and Eddie at 7.Or Stone replaced Reg and Eddie moved into the no7 spot
  16. Any idea how many meetings he will be doing then?He could be a good signing at that grade
  17. So who has signed for Outrup may i ask?
  18. Looks very professional,even got their own workshops.Reminicent of the British teams from the 1930s.I guess this is where Togliatti are holding Ice Racing as well.Having got the Khomitsevitch and Ivanov brothers from Kamensk-Uralski.They couldn't get a place in the top Russian league,so are competing in the 2nd league and the junior championships. As i posted and f-s-p also there have been strong rumours for more than a year about them hosting the GPs in this stadium. Very impressive
  19. As i posted a while ago,it seems more than just a rumour that Svens sister Jordine will be doing some racing.Whether it is anything more than a training camp remains to be seen.This was reported in the Bahnsport-Aktuell with quotes from their father.So it would seem fact rather than rumour
  20. In my programme it is Eddie,who has replaced the printed Reg and moved from no.6 into the no.7 spot.
  21. Yes,i think Holsted will be very strong again.The trouble is the success of their riders could cause problems with availability.If Hougaard,Møller,Raun are all in the Premier League they might be unavailable for Holsted.Henrik and Patrick are very important to the side.Especially Henrik who is really an A grade rider at Holsted for instance.Obviously they lose the advantage of Simon Nielsen and Tommy Pedersen at D grade.That will be the important spot.I think Michael Vissing might be in there.Lubos Tomicek is in the squad but he might be unavailable on wednsdays as well,as i think Czech meetings are on then.Damian Balinski is also in,but would much rather see Nicki or Niels as no.1 Just to add that the availability of riders for all teams will be very important though.Not just for Holsted
  22. In my programme the result is 35-43.Not sure where it has gone wrong. And adding up the individual scores it also comes to 35-43
  23. I have a programme with different heat results.Though i wasn't there and didn't fill it out 1.Squibb,Adams,Hockaday,J.Dugard 3-3 2.Pratt,B.Dugard,Stevens,Bodie(e.f) 3-3(6-6) 3.Jarman,Penniket,Harris,Stone 2-4(8-10) 4.J.Dugard,Adams,Sharp,Reeves 3-3(11-13) 5.Pratt,Penniket,Sharp,Stone 2-4(13-17) 6.Adams,Stevens,B.Dugard,Hockaday 3-3(16-20) 7.Squibb,Jarman,Harris,J.Dugard 3-3(19-23) 8.Stevens,Sharp,Bodie,Reeves 3-3(22-26) 9.Adams,Penniket,Hockaday,Stone 2-4(24-30) 10.Jarman,B.Dugard,Stevens,Harris 3-3(27-33) 11.Pratt,Squibb,J.Dugard,Bodie 3-3(30-36) 12.B.Dugard,Sharp,Penniket,Hockaday 4-2(34-38) 13Pratt,,Jarman,Squibb,Penniket(e.f) 1-5(35-43) And even the Late Night Final is different Jarman Squibb Pratt Adams So,i hope whoever filled in the programme wasn't making it up or looked at the wrong meeting
  24. Fjelsted A-grade Hans Andersen Sebastian Ulamek B-grade Claus Vissing Klaus Jakobsen Manuel Hauzinger Maciej Piaszczynski C-grade Casper Wortmann Peter Kildemand Rene Bach D-grade Nicki Barrett Thomas Irming taken from speedwayzone.dk Not much change here and i can't see much improvement from Fjelsted next season.Ulamek for Jedrzejak is a better move,but they will still be weak when Hans isn't there.Piaszczynski looks a good young rider,but how will he do on the Danish tracks? Wortmann is one of the best C grade riders(hard to believe he has been moved down) and young René Bach moving up from D grade is one to watch.2004 80cc World Champ Nicki Barrett will do ok at D grade again,but isn't improving at all from what i have seen.Can't see them challenging for the top spots
