40 - 38 means I go home without a voice generally.

I thought all JAPs had disappeared from the Speedway scene by the mid-late 70s. I'd love someone to confirm that there was still one about in the 80s......I'll have to sit down and think about this! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I thought it was even earlier than that.

Very sad news.

Yeah Belle Vue now just does not have the same attraction.

Sorry to hear of this terrible news, I think I saw him riding but not sure, but always upseting to hear of a rider passing away at a relatively young age.

Sure he will.

I don't know why because he never did anything wrong in particular I just could not take to the guy.

Only ever attend one meeting the Louis/ Penhall, an absolute great meeting with the ubnderdog Louis beating the great Penhall.

Is there anything with Sheffield on would love to show it to my son, who could some faces to names who I keep telling him about.

This can only be good for British Speedway, I just hope that people don't expect overnight success, it could be 10 years before we reap the benefits.

Don't think you can beatt the Moran brothers, also Chris Morton was quite handy. too.

Well said Falcace, so many question that could put to him.

Some the Aussie riders were good Bob Valentine started on Motor Cross, not sure of any others.

He probably won't want to talk about it, but I remember the time when he broke his thigh at Sheffield 1977 in the Best Pairs meeting.

Would think that there is only three countries capable of staing the event, England , Swedan or Poland.

Yes I agree keep it in black and white.

With kevlars just as bright! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Gets himself noticed.

Cracking photo.

Well done Josh, can't wait to see you in the Blue and Gold of Sheffield.

Seem to remember there was an American rider called Sonny Nutter. Also there was a guy mentioned earlier Jon Jon White, don't know about a strange name but the guy himself was a bit strange. I remember reading an interview in the Speedway Star with him, talk about wanting to live in caves, wonder what happened to him.

This an excellent idea, the one thing that gets my goat is the home advantage, the concerts would generate money as well.

Thanks for reminding me I had vague memories of it, and I would only be 9 at the time. I rember at the time think like most people that we did not stand a chance.

Obviously no love losted between the Danes and the Swedes.

I remember Anders in a run off with Peter Collins at a test match at Sheffield many moons ago, can't remember when as I would not be very old, but was one of the best races I have ever seen live.
