Does anyone know what music is played during the prade at SGP events whilst the riders are brought onto the track. Sounds like a Daft Punk style number but not sure! Any ideas?

Any idea if tickets will be sold at the Stadium? We are travelling over but haven't purchased tickets yet.

I was wondering if anybody could point me in the direction of contact details for Peter. I've drawn a blank trying to contact him from the Association. Many Thanks

I was wondering if anyone of our Swedish friends had a DVD copy of this meeting? I am looking to get hold of a copy of the meeting here in the UK. Cheers

So for what appears to be general admittance (i hope it isn't because it's daylight robery) and a programme, they want £30 per adult. That is more expensive than most Grand Prix. Maybe this is seated cost, I really can't see how they could justify the price to stand.

I have just unearthed this on the BSPA website. If the prices are correct, they will be lucky to get a crowd of 20. What an absolute joke. DATE/ TIME Friday, September 18, 2009 VENUE Coventry Stadium, Rugby Road, Brandon, Nr Coventry CV8 3GJ Track Telephone: 02476 540 400 Website: http://www.coventrymotorspeedway.com ADMISSION PRICES £25.00 Adult £15.00 Concession £5.00 Junior 12-15 yrs (Child 11 and under - Free) PROGRAMME £5.00 QUALIFYING RIDERS TBC MEETING FORMAT 16 riders compete in 20 qualifying heats.

Riders finishing in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in Grand Final will qualify for 2010 World Championship Grand Prix series. RESULT To follow after the meeting...

Will be coming over to Malilla for the Swedish Championship. Could any of our Swedish fans confirm that tickets will be available on the day, i can't work out the arrangements on the Dackarna website. Many Thanks

To my knowledge, it never happened, he did talk about doing some match races to showcase himself as the World Champion, but due to a late season injury at the end of '93 and his schedule in '94, I don't think it ever happened, which is a shame, would be an interesting experiment.

Many Thanks for that. Total is now a dissapointing 3!

Hi, Was wondering just how many people out there own or are currently riding a 125cc Speedway Bike of any spec. Am looking into a potential project for the 2009 season and am looking for some figures to take to the powers that be. If you could just let me know if you own a 125cc and your age i would be really appreciative. Either on here or by email would be great, Thanks for your help, Andy higgs2005@hotmail.co.uk

I have been trying to find the location of the track on a map of Avesta but have had no luck, can any of our Swedish friends tell me where the track is in relation to the town of Avesta,i am staying at the Best Western Hotel. Thanks.

Have just booked my flights, car rental and hotel for a trip to the Swedish Championships and am looking forward to coming over. Always enjoy my trip to Sweden. Am flying into Nykoping then driving upto Avesta and staying at the Best Western Hotel. It will be my first time at Masarna. Is anybody else making the trip over from the UK? Does anyone know what the ticket arrangements are for the 2 days? It looks as though you may be able to buy a ticket for all 3 meetings although i may have got this wrong.

Fly from London Stansted which is a bit of a pain but it's quite straight forward to do. As someone pointed out earlier, the Michelin route plans are excellent. The roads are excellent, hardly ever any traffic, dual carriage way all the way. just watch out for stray moose!

We have done Dackarna before, flew into Gothenburg, hired a car, its about a 3 hour drive south from there. Stayed in vetlanda just up the road and then went on to the meeting at Dackarna. There really is very little in Malilla itself. It's doable for about £150 all in if you book in advance with Ryanair, use Avis Car Hire.
