well Troy still owned by KL and he'll win the meeting

Trevor Harding machine problems

and now someone stung by a bee in the pits, they're calling for an adrenalin shot.

normal company then!

what's that got to do with my post of March 3rd you quoted?

March 3rd

well i was stood on the centre green on the first bend for one of them .... when his crash helmet flew off!!

i was there 88 and 89, broke my leg there in 90 (and i have a get well card still that Kiely had done and stuck your name on )

well i posted this on youtube recently ... a great race at Mildenhall between Colin and Dave Jackson. i rode at Exeter with your dad, and i got on ok with your mum ... think it was her that started a collection at Exeter when i broke my thigh. so are you the one that used to run around the Exeter pits with that scraggly bit of hair at the back that i really wanted to cut

Norbold ... would this be a good place to go to try and sell my 1946 & 1947 scrap books that you saw a couple of years ago? or would you suggest ebay?

like to see what's going on with a some riders from the 80s ... Mike Ferreira, Mike Spink, Larry Ross, Kai Niemi, Roger Johns, John Titman, Ari Koponen, Paul Evitts, Kevin Jolly

great pictures there!! another of Tommy in an unusual pose is on Shooting Star's webshots HERE

Ferreira 7.64 Piddock 5.65 Shilleto 6.58 all in 1978 for Canterbury

Jim ... PM sent

Jim ... Erik is certainly up there as a true great, fantastic rider and one that i class as having that 'x-factor' ... a rider that could look good but produce on the day when needed, that's why he was able to outsmart Nielsen for so long. I'll pm you with Ivan's email later. He's flying up to Edinburgh for the Scottish dinner with my parents end of February, and he has a few plans in between but what date are you looking at for a get together?

i see that, but i thought they were going to recognise 1969 i got my print off Jim this week anyway

was that the one with Andrews?

IVAN MAUGER WORLD CHAMPION 6 x individual speedway 1968-69-70-72-77-79 3 x individual long track 1971-72-76 2 x world pairs 1969-70 4 x world teams 1968-71-72-79 http://www.ivanmauger.com/history.htm

Ivan won 2 pairs titles though, not 1

if a 2nd option counts i'll go .. ERIK = 17 (7 WTC, 5 PAIRS, 2 LTRACK, 3 IND) IVAN = 15 (3 LT, 6 IND, 2 PAIR, 4 WTC) RONNIE = 3 (2 IND, 1 PAIR) OVE 11 (5 IND, 6 WTC) 46

well Ivan has 15 FIM gold medals, i dont know Ove's history and how many pairs and WTC he has my answer was based on speedway and longtrack only

if its speedway and longtrack only ... Ivan 6 + 3 Ronnie 2 Ove 5 Erik 3 + 2 possibly

21 if its speedway and longtrack??

quite annoying actually ... looking for a place called Scheessel and all we could find was Ausgang my dad was doing the map reading but couldn't find that place

i think thats totally out of order having a birthday the same day as the longtrack ... my 40th is on the same day as Cardiff 2007 too so these speedway fixture compilers have a lot to answer for. flew to Hamburg and hired a car last time i went ... as i was driving down the motorway i kept seeing a sign for a town ... went on for bloody miles, must be a really big town. place was called Ausgang
