Aussies with dual patriality do not need anything other than a passport, it is very simple. They can get the Aussie passport through birth rights and British through parents or grandparents, thats all there is to it. Due to the delay I get the impression Cameron is having problems getting a British passport?????????????????????

I don't quite understand either. Most of the Aussies with dual nationality get two passports, they do not need visas.

Its very early in the morning here in Brisbane but the weather is looking pretty good so far. Fingers crossed for great racing tonight, a shame the sidecar field has been depleted but the eight solo boys all have a little quality about them. I'll refrain from commenting too much on why Jayden O'Malley isn't riding, needless to say the NBJMC needs to try to get a new race secretary trained up....before the South QLD Solo production line dries up completely...

Someone gave me some valuable advice when my young lad was progressing, he said when they start to say "he is dangerous" you know they are taking him serious. Likewise with Garrity, he can and most likely will turn into a very very good rider sooner rather than later, and he's already a very serious competetor at this level. He can be totally roar one lap then do something very special the next, the roarness will dissapear very soon I think.

Does anyone have any details, individual scores etc?

Anymore info?

Cookie is pure class at all levels but he's superb at NL level.

I think they do. Going for the treble...lol

Thanks for the updates, keep them coming please. Anymore details?

Not looking good is it? What about the Buxton Twitter team?

Anyone doing updates for this meeting?

The only thing to compare dirt track with moto cross is the bikes. They are moto cross bikes, usually lowered and tuned for speed. Most of the Aussie speedway riders progress from this form of racing.

Does anyone know if this meeting was filmed?

Unfortunately Nick couldn't get over to Prague. He tried everything all to no avail. Which is a real shame, one or two lucky Guys on that podium maybe?...

Any news or information on this meeting? I can't find out anything about it. Lineup, race format, etc, etc. Any information would be appreciated.

Sad, but very true.

Any updates for this saucy encounter? I really hope Buxton give the Cobras a good seeing too.

I don't want to appear negative, however it will be the same old story; cashed up parents will buy the new bikes standard and then proceed to pour thousands of dollars to make them go quicker. Other parents will then have to follow suit so their kids can compete. There are hundreds of the old honda's floating around and I personally can't see too much change in the near future. Maybe a few kids that are fresh to the sport will get the new bikes, but I'm sure the honda's will continue to pick up major trophies. I personally think the engines should be absolutely stock standard, and use cheaper trials tyres rather than mitas.

Its exactly the same scenerio. I can guarantee you there were peed off young Aussies who didn't get into there own State titles last year whilst some touring Brits did (Josh Auty won the Queensland Championship) Yet for the quality of competition it was good for the sport. As for league racing in Australia, its been tried, tracks are just too spread out even when it is limited to a single State, there is no money in grass roots racing in Australia, organisers find it very difficult to break even. Having said that there is a competetive New South Wales v Queensland Series, which this year has been run over weekends with meetings on consecutive nights to justify the travelling expense. There have been six so far with two this weekend.

The kids just want to ride, I don't think it would make a scrap of difference to the majority.

If they have British heritage why shouldn't they come over on a 3 point average? Don't forget that both Nick and Robert would of come in on 5 point averages if they had more experience. Both had very little time on 500's. Nick still has not raced a 500cc speedway bike in Australia. I think its a fair system and as I've said before if British speedway would wake up and see the benfits of junior racing (you know the little bikes and little tracks) then we wouldn't have this constant bickering about how kids from Australia keep nicking young British riders spots. Fact is if you are good enough you get a team...would you rather the National league be full of raw novices? Its got to be good for British speedway to have talented kids from Australia raising the bar.

Haven't seen anything about this meeting yet. The very first 250cc FIM Youth Gold Cup (Unofficial World Championship)being help at Slany near Prague on 11th July. Should be very interesting. Any idea who will be competing, so far I know of; Ashley Morris Nick Morris Adam Kirby
