Oh yeah,i know the point of wikepedia.Just didn't know you could change stuff without a cerstificate

You have that power? I was looking for a link to say the info was wrong,but couldn't see anything.Other than to reply on the Newham site.Nice one Norbold
-
It looks like they have taken the info from the Newham site and an answer from Vic Dawe to the question about the stadium.Seems to be a bit of false info on the net,as yesterday on a Stock car site i saw they had the wrong piece of land listed as the site of the old New Cross stadium.

Little bit surprised Sam Masters didn't finish higher,but well done to them all.Does anyone know if these 4 will be the riders coming over for the 80cc WC?.I heard Dave Cheshire last week on the radio saying some of the boys have got their own 80cc bikes now and are putting in some practice on them.Although it sounded like the Aussie Federation wasn't too keen on them being part of the race meeting I think the young Aussies will be more than a match for the Danes if they have been riding the 80's throughout the year

The famous Archibald Leitch.The man who designed quite a few superb football stadiums and Ibrox. And of course i wasn't looking for the company that built the stadium.But wondering who financed the building of it,in answer to the statement on the link.When they say it was "built by Johnnie Hoskins"i didn't believe that they meant he was out with his shovel and trowel building the place
-
Just looking up somethings and came across this Now i didn't think Johnnie Hoskins was involved in West Ham until a few years later.Nor i thought did he have the sort of money to build a 100,000 capacity stadium.Can't be right surely? It was just by luck,looking for some details of the legendary Thames FC.I remember reading before that they played in a massive stadium.Didn't realise it was the speedway stadium A good ariel photo of the stadium.Although i see the bloody link doesn't work

Spoke too soon Conkers There was supposed to be a Cup of Russia meeting last weekend in Saransk,which was obviously cancelled due to the weather.Very few places are experiencing "good" weather.North America maybe It is causing chaos with the season.Plus all the fans who have booked holidays,flights,hotels,etc.I think one of our forum members,German Speedway Fan was in Saalfelden last weekend.Lets hope he had a good time despite the cancellation

Last chance saloon! The new date is 3/4th Feb.That is the last chance they have.After that it goes somewhere else.Here

Another young Polish rider signs for Wolfslake Grzegorz Zengota. So far the line-up for the 3 team northern league looks like: Wolfslake M.Bartz S.Mell E.Pudel D.Kreklow M.Müller C.Demmel M.Sekula(German pass) L.Kasperek(German pass) P.Hlib(Pl)????? some confusion.On Pawels site he says Wolfslake is his team. M.Piekarski(Pl) G.Zengota(Pl) J.Kolenko(Sl) R.Jamrozy(Pl) M.Hauzinger(A) K.Puodzuks(Lat) Stralsund M.Schultz R.Haupt T.Busch K.Drossmann M.Ernst S.Petersen B.Danielczik G.Klopot(Pl) R.Kowalski(Pl) T.Gapinski(Pl) J.Kristiansen(Dk) P.Hougaard(Dk) Teterow T.Johansson(Sw) L.Tomiczek(Cz) P.Hlib(Pl)????But in the lists he is claimed by Teterow P.Dym C.Hefenbrock K.Wölbert D.Rath S.Bromberg R.Baumann T.Brosowski R.Hermann

I do have a feeling we are going to hear Mr Johnstons name quite a bit from now on,whenever Sub mentions Scott -
Final results F.Zorn 30 H.Simon 27 J.Klatovsky 24 Full resuls here As for Saalfelden,i have seen something on speedway.org that it has been put back to the 11 feb.If that means it is definitely in Oulu i am not sure.Haven't seen anything official.Like you i watched a bit of the Ski-jumping and Bob and the mountains were pretty much clear of snow,more like April than January.I think they were from South Germany/Austria somewhere

It could very well be that most of those 20 motors that Jason discarded would be acceptable to others.That is the sort of attitude that gets riders to the very top.The sort of attitude that meant Ivan Mauger wouldn't accept his allocated place in the pits.He took the "best" place. -

Have to say listening to the broadcast from Oz yesterday,it mentioned Jason tested 25 or 26 engines to get 6 for the GP's.That is being totally professional.But you never know when an engine is going to blow.Scott did have 2 go while over in Oz -

iris123 replied to sward's topic in International World of Speedway
Well i have seen heats cut back to 3 laps if the weather looks bad,to get the meeting finished.But it doesn't seem to be the case here.23° the sun going down Nothing happening at the mo.A very good interview with Dave Cheshire about his career and his plans with Pinjar Park,and the general situation in WA Ht 5 Crump,Stead,Woodward,(?)-Jason super fast and way out in front Ht6 Adams,Hedley,Johnston,Gathercole Ht 7 Nicholls,Batchelor,Doyle,Harding -Close on the line between Scott + Troy Ht 8 Holder(awesome! according to the bloke here),Schlein,McGowan,Lemon -

iris123 replied to sward's topic in International World of Speedway
Well if no one else does But i just logged on in what seems to be an interval and there is some Go-Kart racing.Sounds like they are only running 3 lap heats,because of the abrasive nature of the track.But didn't get all the conversation From the first 4 heats i can gather Crump,Adams,Holder and Harding won their heats.Schlein,Johnston aand McGowan came second.Think Stead and Scott finished 3rd
